Thrilled to be accepted as a Wolsey Lodge. See the Troustrie entry at https://wolseylodges.com/lodge/troustrie-house/

Delighted to see new residents in the pond which has been in just a year but already looks well established.

Since Troustrie introduced its minimum two-night stay and added extra covid secure measures, inevitably it has resulted in a few single night gaps in our diary so we’re now offering the following dates at a super special rate of £85 for either room, based on two people sharing.   So don’t miss out on a couple of unexpected days in the East Neuk.  Or perhaps join them together for an even bigger bargain! 

Wednesday, 2 June – twin room

Thursday, 3 June – fourposter double room

Saturday, 19 June – twin room

Sunday, 20 June – fourposter double room

Monday, 26 July – twin room

Thursday, 29 July – twin room

Tomorrow, 26 April, Troustrie House will throw open its door for guests. At long last it will be wonderful to have people to stay. The East Neuk is looking fabulous in the sunshine, so come and enjoy this beautiful corner of Scotland.

A new add-on to a Troustrie stay so why not treat yourself to a home-baked afternoon tea.

Wishing everyone a very Happy Easter and looking forward to seeing you soon. Check the calendar for availability and to see what’s planned for the summer ahead.

New heathers just arrived to boost the winter colour. Planting might have to wait until the snow has melted!

Look closely at this wee robin and you’ll see she’s been recently ringed. In a chilly couple of hours, a local birder ringed 27 birds including blue tit, coal tit, great tit, greenfinch, yellowhammer, tree sparrow, robin and blackbird and also spotted woodcock and snipe in the boggy area. Good evidence that local birdlife can flourish and feel safe by adding relatively small areas of mixed trees and shrubs, especially those producing berries and hips, and allowing boggy flooded areas to remain.
