This stay was an absolute stunning highlight of our three week trip to Scotland. There were eight of us and everybody had their own bedroom and bathroom. The castle is perfectly decorated with wonderful and unique pieces of art. We enjoyed the downstairs pub with a few whiskys, watching a couple of movies in the theater, and walking the grounds. If you want to relax and treat yourself and your guests, this is the place. Groceries and restaurants are close by. We Deliverood Krispy Kremes and coffees for breakfast and Mexican food for dinner. It's also only a 20-minute drive to the airport, which was great for an early morning departure.Vicky and Brodie were both very committed to providing us with everything we needed.Highly recommended.
