Pilrig House has a fascinating and distinguished history - it was home of the same family for hundreds of years - the Balfours, and it also has a wonderful literary connection with Robert Louis Stevenson - his family lived in Pilrig House, and, as a child RLS often visited with his mother, and he played in the gardens here. He mentions Pilrig House in many of his books, eg Kidnapped and Catriona.
Our apartments at Pilrig House are non-smoking. And, sorry - no pets.
