Warm, friendly front of house staff (Jeanette & Bethany) made a great first impression. The castle itself feels cosy, full of quirky charm, and offers beautiful views of the surrounding grounds. It’s important to recognise that this is an old castle, so some bedrooms are in need of upgrading. That said, the suites have been refurbished to a high standard and are well worth booking. We stayed in the Kelly Suite and were not disappointed. It has been recently renovated and features a large walk-in shower, as well as a deep bath for two with a lovely view over the castle grounds. (Don’t forget to pack bubble bath!) The room is spacious, with a comfortable setting area. A couple of small additions - such as bottled water and a fridge - would make the experience even better. The restaurant caters well to different guests with designated areas for dogs, children, and a la carte dining, which works nicely and gives everyone flexibility. The food is of a very high standard, with excellent presentation across both the a la carte and bar menus. The cocktails are also delicious. Service throughout the hotel is excellent. Staff are smartly dressed, attentive, and genuinely welcoming - taking time to ask about your day and how your stay is going. Giving ideas and place to go in the surrounding area. Leisure facilities are another highlight, with long opening hours and a good range of gym, swimming pool, sauna, jacuzzi, heated loungers. The grounds are extensive and even feature a map of Scotland, making it a great place to explore - especially for guests travelling with dogs.

From when you enter the approach driveway and carpark which are really badly maintained and full of potholes you just know it's in need of a bit of TLC.

From when you enter the approach driveway and carpark which are really badly maintained and full of potholes you just know it's in need of a bit of TLC. Overall it was decent value for money as we had a special deal. Really needs a bit of investment , carpets on stairs etc badly worn, banisters chipped. Room was pretty dated and tired. Lift not working so had to carry bags upstairs. Staff were excellent and the food in the bar in the evening very good. Breakfast was OK , not a fan of buffet breakfasts but was acceptable. For what we paid it was a reasonable stay but not worth the normal rate. Not sure we would go back even on a deal TBH.
