Here is just some of the lovely feedback from guests who stayed for New Year 2024.

Fabulous stay with such friendly staff and amazing food
Anonymous

We had a super new year here. The staff were really friendly and helpful and the food was amazing. We had a basic room but it was still of a good size, the bed was really comfortable and it was cleaned to an immaculate standard every day. The hotel put on activities every day and the ceilidh on NYE was brilliant. We were also blown away by the Falconry experience. The setting of the castle is a delight - it is remote and surrounded by mountains so great for exploring! Highly recommended!

Staff were fantastic, beautiful location too, we had a Tower room and it was really nice. The food is incredible, so much choice and beautifully presented. Overall this is a great venue for hogmanay, only negative is, when full, there are not enough sofas and chairs in the lounge, the ceilidh was in the dining room which wasn't that big so chairs lined the room, but everyone had a great time!!
