Celtic
Castles featured in Signature Magazine, July/August 2007
"If you've ever wanted to feel like a
real king or queen, here's your chance to hold court. Celtic
Castles has compiled a list of more than 70 sites in England,
Ireland, France, Scotland and Wales that rent rooms or
an entire castle for days or weeks. Examples of the properties
include Château de Mercuès, a 13th century
building in southwest France that was a summer home for
counts and bishops and is now a wine producing estate;
Law Castle, near Glasgow, Scotland, which was built in
the 15th century as a wedding gift for Princess Mary, the
eldest daughter of James II; and Clontarf Castle in Dublin,
Ireland, built in 1172, where turrets and tapestries blend
with decidedly modern decor.

City
Living Magazine, June 2007 -
(Shieldhill
Castle)
..."Our room was ultra-modern, boasting a huge bed
with fresh, plump bed linen. Plantation shutters let in slats
of summer sun and a clean, tiled wet room felt more Med than
Scot.
We got straight on with our weekend’s mission –
relaxation – and each ordered a well-deserved beverage.
After that it was time to get spruced up and head to dinner
in that castle’s restaurant. On the first night we chose
from the very reasonably priced set menu with three courses
priced at just 19.95 pounds"...

to exploring a bit more once his stint in the Marine Hotel’s
kitchen was over."... View
