Loved the uniqueness with it being a castle. Wish we were able to stay longer. The stairs were difficult to manage with our large suitcases. Not much you can do with it being an old building though.
We wanted to stay in a castle, and this delivered 100 percent. It’s grand, exciting, and comfortable at the same time. Staff was very friendly, didn’t have dinner at the hotel but the bar was a great experience for an after dinner drink. Highly recommend.
My daughter and I thought we would end our vacation in Scotland on a high note by staying in the castle. This was not what we expected.
Note to anybody planning to stay here please check if there is a wedding venue happening. We were told there’s no service for us because they didn’t have enough staff because of the wedding. We paid a lot of money for this experience. It was a disaster.
The property is fine. It is in the middle of nowhere so you really have to plan on staying at the castle if you’re on a tour and you tour guide drops you off like we did.
After taking some nice pictures, we decided we would have a drink at the bar. There was no bartender. We waited 25 minutes. My daughter stayed there and I went to the gift shop. I told her what I wanted if the bartender appear. I purchased my items and went back to the bar. They were still no bartender. at that time I went out to the very nice lady at the front desk and asked her if there was a bartender tonight. She went into the back of the bar and a bartender appeared..
We were the only people in the dining room, yet we were seated at the table that overlooks the kitchen. After our food arrived we never saw another waitress until we were finished eating.
Housekeeping did not vacuum the room. The crumbs on the floor was still there when we returned the next day. The dirty cups we used were not replace with clean ones.
We stayed at all different venues during our vacation, This was the worst and the biggest waste of money. P
We wanted to love it here, but had a few issues during our stay. We stayed here for the 1st night of our honeymoon after traveling from the US. It took us multiple plane rides & a long drive to reach the castle. We were hoping for a relaxing stay after a stressful day of traveling. The hotel did not tell us there was a wedding that day at the castle. We very much understand that it's a wedding venue, but there's only about three communal rooms & a lobby for all guests to share, so it was very tough not to feel like you were in the way of someone's very special & important day. If you are a non-wedding guest there is not really anywhere to hang out besides your room until dinner at 8pm. We really would have appreciated a heads up about the wedding & would have booked a different day so we wouldn't have felt like we were intruding on someone's very special event. When check-in happened that afternoon, it was also the wedding's cocktail hour & there was a line forming through the lobby with the wedding happening around it. It was a bit chaotic on the hotel's part. The reception music also goes until midnight so you'll hear it from your room, just a FYI. Our other issue was that there was mildew in our shower. Our room itself was lovely & the castle grounds are gorgeous. The staff were also very kind & helpful during our stay. I'd give the staff a 10/10. Just a note to please give travelers a heads up about weddings & to be more organized with non-event guests & event guests.
