Bonthrone Manor

  • 13 guests

  • 6 bedrooms

  • 3 bathrooms

    +1 extra toilet

Built by the Bonthrone family in 1857, this country manor earned a place in our collection because of its Victorian façade and traditional interiors. While the historic feel won’t be for everyone, there’s plenty of room for socialising, and there are just enough modern amenities – including a hot tub and karaoke machine – to stop this place feeling like it’s been plucked from a period drama. The best part, though, is its bucolic location in the heart of rural Fife. Nature lovers will adore the number of hiking and cycling trails on their doorstep – plus it’s just a short walk to the nearest village, ideal if you fancy a change of scenery.
