My partner and I stayed in the castle 1 night on our tour of Scotland. It was a good experience until we arrived home to find a letter from the managers stating that we owe them additional £50 for "damage" to the room due to us drinking read wine in the room. They followed it up with a picture of... More

As we celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary at Barcaldine castle last year we couldn't wait to return again this year. We were not disappointed! Once again we had a memorable stay at this beautiful castle. Can't fault it. Thanks again.

We married here in April and can't praise this stunning, elegant castle enough. It has so much personality - it is homely, romantic, enigmatic and a superb venue for an intimate wedding. Panoramic views are breath-taking and the standards Ronnie and Liz maintain are very high. They are warm, self-effacing people who really care for their guests and make you... More

We have just returned from a perfect two days - a small family wedding where we occupied all five bedrooms rooms. We were lucky to meet the owner David and his wonderful staff and they made us feel that it was our "home" for our stay. You could not pick a more idealic place - a castle and stunning loch... More

Our ideal anniversary destination- we enjoy the location, hospitality, breakfast, attention to detail and lounging in the great hall. If you've ever wanted to stay in a castle- try this place. This is our second visit, and just as good as the first.

Where do I start... The hospitality that Ronnie and Liz provide can only be described as superior. I can't say enough good things about our stay here. I awlays judge accomodation by 4 criteria. 1) Free (no strings attached) WiFi. 2) Cleanliness 3) Superior linen 4) Polite helpful staff. Our stay at Barcaldine Castle scored a 5/5 on all accounts...

We booked Barcaldine Castle for valentines week end, rather than the rude and unhelpful Isle of eriska down the road, as the manager here on the phone was so nice and caring. This is a privately owned castle and you can tell. Every little detail is taken care of down to the nth degree. The managers (who live in and... More

We stayed here for 3 nights as part of our 2 week honeymoon around Scotland. I must say this is by far and away the stand out place that we stayed in. The castle is amazing - looks fantastic inside and out. The bedrooms (I'm naturally going off our room, but no reason why others are not the same quality)... More

Together with friends we celebrated the New Year at the splendid 16thC Black (Barcaldine) Castle. Following a long journey it was especially pleasing to be greeted by scottish hosts and in Liz and Ronnie you are guaranteed a warm Highland welcome. This is a B&B (afternoon tea,supper- optional extras) where the hosts and staff give the utmost priority to hands-on... More
