Amazing staff and atmosphere. The grounds are well maintained and the castle is clean and tidy.
We had a wonderful time at Kincraig Castle. Nice accommodations, and very attentive service. Vijay took care of all our needs at the hotel, from delicious breakfast to last dram of the evening, and even booked off-site dining for us. He truly went above and beyond and we appreciated it so much.
Kincraig was so lovely and the staff was excellent! Food was great for breakfast and dinner that we had there. The grounds were immaculately kept and rooms were large and spacious and beautiful!
A wonderful property with excellent rooms and kind staff.
We stayed at castles before and this one is very good. Breakfast was excellent. The room was comfortable but needed a little updating. Excellent reception service.
