- Full Scottish breakfast
- Available 7 days a week
Scotland is beginning to bloom and today’s Big Deal from the magnificent Shieldhill Castle Hotel by Biggar offers a very comfortable base from which to enjoy it all.
Available from now until the end of March 2018, this offer would be ideal for an autumnal or winter break in the Borders.
Convenient location
Dating back to 1199, Shieldhill Castle is set in the beautiful upper Clyde Valley and is conveniently located less than an hour’s drive from Edinburgh and Glasgow.
Other guests come for the peace and quiet of the rural setting as well as atmospheric touches such as the suit of armour in the reception.
Guests here are in good company. Nelson Mandela liked it so much that he planted a tree here when he stayed for a Commonwealth Conference in Edinburgh.
Seven days a week
Available seven days a week, the offer is for two people to enjoy an overnight stay in a classic double, twin or stables room with a full Scottish breakfast each morning and a two course dinner.
Individually styled rooms
Shieldhill’s individually styled rooms are split between the castle and rooms which have been converted from the Victorian stables in the courtyard. The latter are appointed with luxurious shower rooms or wet rooms.
Each of the rooms in the castle are named after a Scottish battle and each of the stable rooms are named after a Scottish whisky. All are ensuite and have their own charm. Depending on the room, you might enjoy a spa Jacuzzi bath, four post bed or views of the tree-studded parkland and Tinto Hills in the distance.
Local sourcing
Dinner is served in the Chancellors’ Restaurant. With intricate cornicing and huge windows looking over the castle grounds, it is a gorgeous setting for a spectacular meal.
The chefs like to use the best locally sourced fresh ingredients including carefully selected fish, meat, game and vegetables. The menus change regularly. However, typical starters might be the Scottish smoked salmon served with capers, brown bread and salad or the smoked duck breast with date pudding and carrot purée.
Popular main courses include pan-fried breast of chicken on black pudding risotto and the roasted vegetable open lasagne with Parmesan cream.
Lots of guest like to relax in the wood panelled splendour of the hotel’s Oak Room Lounge.
During the colder months, the log fire is pressed into action and the lounge is very cosy. At all times of year, the large windows provide stunning vistas of the Borders’ countryside. You may have to share the lounge with the resident cat.
Happy visitors
Many visitors to Shieldhill Castle Hotel have left glowing reviews on TripAdvisor. We have edited these recent reviews for length:
‘Lovely stay… check-in was easy and our room was lovely… tucked away through a small conference room. Room had everything we needed and was quite large, it had a nice view over the gardens. The evening meal was really good and then we had a drink in the bar. Breakfast was good also. Really enjoyed our stay and would like to go back sometime.’
‘Lovely atmosphere. My husband and I visited this hotel recently and were not disappointed. The staff were all very friendly, the food was very good, and the room was lovely. The hotel itself does feel like a castle and the grounds are lovely too…’
‘…there are parts in the main house that could do with a little freshening up but it’s an old country house. You shouldn’t come here expecting a chain hotel look! The lounge is truly cosy and comforting and the bar perfect for us to have the dog along. Our dinner and breakfast were delicious and the perfect amount… The staff in particular were a high point, very professional and made you feel at ease as soon as you arrive…’
