The space
Scone Palace has an exciting and colourful history as one of Scotland's most important stately homes. Fifteen hundred years ago it was the capital of the Picts. In the intervening centuries, it has been the seat of parliaments and the crowning place of the Kings of Scots, including Macbeth and Robert the Bruce. The Palace houses an outstanding collection of antiques, paintings and rare artifacts and the grounds are renowned throughout the world, making the stateley home one of the most popular tourist attractions in both Perth and Scotland.
Poised above the River Tay in Perthshire, Scone Palace overlooks the routes north to the Highlands and east through Strathmore to the coast. The Grampian mountains form a distant backdrop, and across the river stands the city of Perth.
If you fancy dining out, it is only a short 10-minute taxi ride to the centre of Perth where you will find a variety of award
winning restaurants.
Guest facilities include: Comfortable sitting room with magnificent views over the Parks to the river Tay; Fully equipped and spacious dining kitchen suitable for entertaining; TV, DVDs, board games and Wi-Fi facilities; A cook and maid service can also be arranged on request.
Not only is the exterior stunning for our guests at Scone Palace, but the grounds and gardens are also an experience and retreat in themselves. Residents have their own private gardens at Scone seen below along with the entire Estate when the gates are closed to visitors. A relaxing outdoor space to enjoy breakfast, your own afternoon tea or a drink before dinner.

It was perfect for our group. Loved the spacious rooms and common areas. Kitchen was wonderfully stocked and all the small details were appreciated. Hope to visit again when the palace is open so we can tour the areas we didn't have access to and visit the gift shop! | Scone Palace | January 2025 | Thanks for the great review Heather and we look forward to seeing you again! |
| Maegan | Peoria, Illinois | https://a0.muscache.com/im/pictures/user/User/original/286fd949-fa5e-4af0-a6f2-75a76f073b21.jpeg?im_w=240 | 5 | October 2024 | Pictures do not do this apartment justice! It was the last place we stayed before we went home and was easily the favorite of our group. The Palace is stunning and the apartment makes you feel like you're in a fairytale. I cannot recommendation this listing enough! Read all of the instructions sent to you from the host! I had a momentary minute of confusion when trying to check in, but it was completely my fault for not fully reading everything that was sent to me before we arrived. Once I read them, I had no issues finding the keys and apartment. | Scone Palace | October 2024 | Thanks for the lovely feedback Maegan and delighted you enjoyed your stay. |

The tent corridor, bedrooms, kitchen etc are all beautiful and well equipped. The welcome pack was very useful. Stephan is an exceptional host, even helping out with first aid for my 2y.o. granddaughter when she had a wasp sting. | |||

| Assis | Lephalale, South Africa | None | 5 | September 2024 | I’ve been with Airbnb for many years and this is my my best Airbnb ever.
