Culcreuch Castle

Unlike the jokes which fly around the Big Deal office, some things only get better with age.

Originally dating from the 14th century, Culcreuch Castle Hotel is one of Scotland’s oldest hotels. Blending historic atmosphere with 21st century comforts, it is growing old very gracefully.

Located near Stirling in Central Scotland, it overlooks its own private loch and is set in the beautiful, 1600 acre Culcreuch Estate.

Romantic break

Today, Culcreuch Castle Hotel retains all the romance and charm that its heritage entitles it to, yet it has been sensitively upgraded and is professionally managed to offer an excellent standard of comfort and luxury accommodation.

Available Sunday to Friday, option one of this exceptional offer is for two people to have an overnight break in a standard room at Culcreuch Castle Hotel.

The offer includes a hearty Scottish breakfast in the morning and afternoon tea with a glass of Prosecco on the day you arrive.

Option two, also available Sunday to Friday, is for two people to enjoy two consecutive nights in a standard room at Culcreuch Castle Hotel with a Scottish breakfast each morning and afternoon tea with Prosecco on day of arrival.

All rooms have en-suite facilities, satellite TV and Wi-Fi.

Depending on availability, guests may be able to upgrade to a Deluxe room with four poster bed for a supplement of £20 per room per night; arrange with and pay directly to hotel.

Scottish produce

Breakfast is served in the Laird’s Hall, part of the original castle.

While not included in the offer, guests can of course take other meals at the hotel.

The informal Dungeon Diner offers dishes such as the popular house burger; steak ‘n’ ale pie and beer battered haddock.

If the weather is fine, guests can even eat outside.

Dinners in the wood panelled Castle Restaurant are candlelit. Typical dishes might be the grilled fillet of local beef or the cod served in a chickpea, chorizo, tomato, saffron and mussel broth.

Locally sourced ingredients take pride of place on the menus in both restaurants.

See & do around Culcreuch Estate

Hillwalking, golfing, distillery visits and mountain biking are all available nearby.

Happy visitors

Culcreuch Castle has been a home for 700 years. This is what one of the more recent guests thought of her family’s stay at Culcreuch Castle Hotel:

‘Beautiful hotel with wonderful staff. My husband booked me two nights here on a 5pm deal. We got a family room in the castle with a cot for our son. The room was beautiful and great care had been taken to ensure an authentic period look. We ate in the bar. The food was lovely and there was a kids menu. The manager even wheeled the wee one around for five minutes when the food arrived so we could eat some of it in peace! Breakfast was one of the best I’ve had… It was so good we’ve booked in again as our family Christmas present to ourselves!’

‘If you want an American chain style hotel don’t stay here but if you want to go somewhere a bit different with bags of character and a couple of quirks then look no further. I look forward to this being our regular family weekend away spot.’
