Glenapp Castle

What an amazing experience, from the personal welcome upon arrival right through to departure. We particularly liked the subtle nature of the staff and their ability to be attentive without being overwhelming. We loved the magic behind having our room tidied whilst out and the bed turn down whilst dining. A real treat to visit and something to experience.

This was the second of my husband's birthday presents. I hired the Gillie before going to the hotel as part of my husband's birthday. Gordon was friendly and knowledgeable and my husband really enjoyed the experience even though the weather wasn't nice. After that we headed to the hotel and from the moment we arrived to the moment we left it was a fantastic experience. A big thank you to Jen who looked after us throughout our stay and a big thank you to Duncan who looked after us at dinner. The food was exceptional and the taste sensations were delightful. The wine was very good too. Thank you so much for making my husband's 50th birthday so memorable. We enjoyed it so much we are planning to return for my birthday. Would definitely recommend and can't wait to return

It was like a fairytale. Everyone was so helpful. The food was great. The people who work there could not do enough to insure everything was ok. Other than outlets behind the bed that were not accessible, there was never an issue. It was very special.

We visited Glenapp Castle for 3 nights to celebrate our Golden Wedding Anniversary. From the moment we were met by staff at the entrance to the castle to the moment we left we were made to feel very special. The Castle is accessed by a long, beautiful private drive through woodland. The hotel is surrounded by 75 acres of beautiful woodland that has many walks and places of interest. There is no formal reception area, instead there is a welcoming hall where you book in. We were shown to our elegant room that had views over to the sea in the distance. A bottle of champagne was waiting in the room for us. The room was large and very comfortably furnished. The huge bed was the best bed we have ever slept in!! The bathroom was well stocked with Penhaligon toiletries, slippers and comfortable bathrobes. Bed was turned down at night, which is a nice touch. The public rooms were large, tastefully furnished with comfortable seating and lovely open fires. Elegance is maintained throughout the hotel Personalised menus were delivered daily and we ate every day at the hotel. The tasting menu was superb as were all the other meals. When I commented on a particular dish that had been on the menu previously that was a favourite of mine, the staff discussed it with the chef and arranged for it be available for me! The service was exceptional throughout our stay. The staff were all very friendly, informative and highly professional. When we were leaving we were given a friendly goodbye and offered water for the long journey home, another nice touch. This is a remarkable hotel and we hope to definitely return for another visit.
