*8.9* Dalhousie Castle: only 1 minute away! (20 yards on foot)
We loved staying in a historical building with the experience to go with it. Our meal at the Dungeon restaurant was very nice and the breakfast was good too. We enjoyed the falconry experience and the lovely walks around the castle grounds. The decor makes you feel like you’re staying in a proper castle from a historical time. We had a themed room, which was huge with a very comfortable four poster bed. The staff are friendly, give good service and are very professional. We stayed two nights but could of easily stayed three if we had more time. We recommend this hotel if you want a real castle experience without the pretentiousness at a very reasonable price.
United KingdomDuring this Covid pandemic time, the staff made great efforts to adhere to the strict cleaning protocols and to still make our stay relaxing and enjoyable. This was a return visit and we have been many times and hope to do so many times in the future.
