Welcome to the Stevenson House,

Welcome to the Stevenson House,
one of Edinburgh’s most unusual hospitality venues.

Built between 1802 and 1806, the Stevenson House is a typical Georgian New Town house which has always been in private ownership and is still used as the family home for John & Felicitas Macfie as well as their six children.

Having trained as an hotel manager in Lausanne, Felicitas Macfie realised the potential of the Stevenson House to be used as a venue for hosting lunches, dinners, receptions and conferences. The house retains all of its original architectural features and has the atmosphere of an elegant family home rather than a commercial venue.

We pride ourselves on giving very individual service and tailoring each event to the needs of our clients. Whether you are a private client or a large corporation, you are given maximum flexibility and a whole range of services to suit your every wish and even a few whims.

Check out the facility information, email your enquiries, or just look at the photographs of the house. Make use of our website and tell others about it!
