Beautiful floral displays throughout the hotel.
Wonderful staff and service. Lovely grounds to walk around.
The archery was great fun thanks to George who was a fantastic coach.
The whole experience was amazing. The rooms were stunning along with the grounds. Every member of staff was so attentive and friendly. The food was delicious as well. We wish we would have been able to stay longer
We arrived very late and had called ahead to let the staff know we would be late for our dinner reservation. We were told the kitchen closes at 9:30pm but would have sandwiches or salads available. We arrived after 9:30pm and upon arrival we were escorted to the drawing room to relax for a few minutes, but to our surprise they kept the staff in and served us a full dinner. We felt so bad they kept their staff on just for us, but that is the level of service we received at all times. I would HIGHLY recommend Glenapp Castle! Our room was spacious, cozy, clean and very well-appointed. Again, definitely a place I would stay again when back in Scotland
Greeted as we were helped in parking after coming through the gated entrance. Made to feel that nothing was a problem and was there to help us enjoy our stay. Excellent food,great room and bathroom.
Amazing hotel. The grounds were so beautiful with the autumn colours. The service in exemplary, very personable but not starchy. We will definitely return.
When you turn up to a castle you expect something a story. This wasn't and didn't match the brochure. I asked about the history of the castle. I got told it was built 1850 ish. No other details. I found more details from wikipedia than i did from the staff.
The service was very slow and very formal. Breakfast took over one and a half hours. Dinner was over 2 hours.
The formality remained me more of my old boarding school than a hotel.
The seating in the dinning room was closer than the expected 2 meters
