"The room was small but clean. Good power shower! Bed comfortable. Some bedside lights would have been nice. Breakfast was very good and the service came with a smile even though she was on her own and dealing with a broken coffee machine! The outside looks tired and scruffy."

Glenapp Castle

Glenapp Castle

10/10 Excellent
"This castle is fabulous! For Americans it is like stepping into a Downton Abby set. The staff greet you at the door, take your luggage and from that moment forward treat you like royalty. Not only is this a gated property, but you need your sir name in order for the gate to open! Then the drive up the narrow road just enhances your excitement to see the castle. John was great at showing us around and to our room. He was very helpful in understanding where everything was and how to get around. The option to use boots and coats owned by Glenapp to tour the grounds was an added bonus so you didn’t get your own shoes dirty. The room was spacious, clean and very welcoming. To have the option of taking a full tub was amazing. Surprising was the turn down service given without request - we had already retired but would have loved to have this done for us. In the morning we requested some hot tea to enjoy while in the sitting area of our room. We were given a drink credit by using Expedia, but I am wondering if the dinner and breakfast were already included in the pricing. That was not clear, but we did enjoy a very wonderful breakfast while listening to classical pop music - very Bridgerton. Even without the TV references, this is a quintessential castle experience and I highly recommend staying at Glenapp Castle."

"Nicole & Mal are a lovely couple and couldn’t do enough for us. Gave helpful advice on local places to eat as well as knowledge of Wigtown. The property was very homely, lovely room with book theme and comfy beds. Nice bathroom with modern shower. Living room downstairs to use was also very cosy and comfortable. Breakfast was amazing, all local produce and even went out of their way to get the Rice Krispies that we asked for because they had run out. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area to stay here."
