Plenty of room for our family of 5 adults. Be prepared for the stairs, but it is so worth it! Peaceful, beautiful surroundings. First class interior. Cant recommend it enough! | Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 | ||

The rental was immaculately clean – spotless! – with wonderful character, and all of the rooms were well-outfitted with everything we might need for our stay. Beds were comfy (not too soft as often happens in rentals), and the showers were great. (One suggestion to Americans who might get too warm sleeping under a duvet is to bring your own topsheet.)
We particularly appreciated the utensils/supplies (and snacks!) in the kitchen, as well as the cozy sofas and large TV in the media room. My daughter loved climbing the winding staircase to her bedroom in the turret, and the view from the top of the tower was breathtaking and serene. Paul responded quickly to my pre-visit emails with useful travel information in answer to my questions, and Toni(sp?) was friendly, welcoming, and helpful when she checked us in and gave us a tour of the rental. (She also recommended the Inn at Muckhart where we had a yummy first dinner in Scotland.) Day trips to Stirling and Edinburgh were quick and easy, but we were always excited to return to our castle for the evening. I've already recommended the rental as a “must” to friends considering a trip to the UK, and, if we someday return to Scotland – as we hope to do – a stay here will top our list. Thank you Paul and Amanda! |

| 10/10 | Excellent | Amanda T. | 11 Jul 2023 | Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy | None | Beautiful stay! | We had a lovely time in this spacious tower turret, and the pictures do not do it justice. Everything is immaculate and extremely well taken care of. Compared to other “castles” where we've stayed (recognizing that the current building was built as a guesthouse and never served as a real castle), there were fewer amenities and things to do (no tennis courts, swimming pool, giant chess, loaner bikes, etc.), and the building is located weirdly right next to a suburban neighborhood. But we still had a lovely time — just know that you have to go elsewhere to have anything to do with the kids. | Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 | ||

Loved the interior decor. The stairs were a a challenge for my bad knees but I did it several times all the way to the top which was excellent. The views were spectacular. The castle was isolated from shops but a terrific experience. | Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 | ||

It met all our expectations, had amazing views and wonderful privacy. Check-in and out was super easy. The whole place was immaculate. Plenty of space for everyone to have their own spaces. Location made it very easy to navigate to the sights we wanted to see including Edinburgh. | Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 | ||

The accommodations were exceptionally comfortable and we thought overall the experience here was better than advertised. If we get a chance to return to Scotland this would be at the top of our list for a place to stay! | Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 | ||
| 8/10 | Good | Cherri B. | 28 Dec 2022 | Liked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy | Disliked: Check-in | Beautiful spot ! | The castle and grounds are really beautiful. The apartment is very well appointed. There are a lot of stairs, so anyone who isn’t happy with that will not enjoy it but we were fine. The Views are spectacular. It’s not far from Stirling, but there is very little in the immediate neighborhood. The downside was not the manager of the property who is located somewhere else but the local management who didn’t understand the heat , stove, closthes washer, and other very important items which took us three days to finally figure out. Once we did, the house, warmed up and it was great. If you come in winter, ask Management to turn the heat on 2 to 3 days in advance because that’s what it takes to heat up and Old castle . Place has a really wonderful feel and that senior remote manager is extremely gracious and responsive. . House was decorated nicely fir Christmas with personalized gifts, and bottle of champagne. We really enjoyed it and would love to go back during the summer. | Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2022 |
