A lovely county castle surrounded by Belted Galloway cattle and sheep. The castle grounds have a fruit trees, herbs and vegetables. Tobias is truly a wonderful gentleman and host. He prepared an amazing breakfast both mornings which consisted of local flavors ( haggis, blood pudding, potato cakes, eggs, bacon and sausage). Tobias gave us a tour of the chapel and grand hall with interesting history. Baron James prepared a formal dinner which was also delicious. We are Maxwell descendants by DNA and name so the link to this castle is intriguing.
I had the most fabulous stay! This is a unique experience. In addition to the beautiful room, make sure you take in the gorgeous gardens and take a drive in the lush countryside. The owners care tremendously (it’s their home as well) - their dedication shows. I will certainly be back!
An overnight stay at end of 2 week trip in the UK. Great setting, very peaceful and quiet. Tobias was helpful and communication leading up to visit was good. Intriguing place and fair play to the lads in undertaking the restoration project. Would have no problem returning.
