Rural location, very well stocked with everything needed and more! Luxurious bedrooms. Good value for money. A lovely place to spend a few days.
United KingdomWe loved our stay. The apartment is nice and comfortable and it's located in lovely surroundings. Great walks!
United KingdomIsolated, no traffic noise, lovely walks on your doorstep, good range of dvds and games for keeping the kids happy at night or if it rains. Kitchen well equipped. Noted some comments about it being dark...moronic, its very obviously an old building, not a glass walled, modern apartment, but you do get natural light and every room has main and lamp options. Comfortable and cosy. Really enjoyed it. We stayed on a Monday and Tuesday as part of a longer road trip and were the only people there which was great. Felt like our own little castle.
United KingdomI liked the secluded location, it was really quiet. The apartment had everything a guest could wish for.
United KingdomEverything. The peaceful rural location and the facilities. The woods next door and the castle grounds were stunning with rhodendrons in full bloom in sunshine. We welcomed the shade in the garden from the days of sunshine we had .
United KingdomLoved the location - peaceful and very conveniently situated for access to Cairngorms and the coast. Apartment was very well equipped.
United KingdomTea, coffee, milk and biscuits on arrival. We didn't cook but there were a few items in the cupboard that would have been very useful if we had. Lovely complimentary toiletries in the bathroom.
United KingdomVery comfortable, clean, well maintained and well equipped apartment. Only a short walk from the wedding venue in the castle.
United KingdomVery convenient for a wedding in the Castle. Very comfortable bed. Very well equipped apartment. The Castle management team are extremely helpful and efficient.

The castle, built in the neo-gothic style in 1812 is really a castellated mansion. It was bought by the Norwegian government in exile during the 2nd world war and used as a boarding school for Norwegian children who were refugees from the German occupation of Norway. Nowadays Drumtochty Castle grounds play host to the Drumtochty Highland Games in late June every year.
