Lovely hotel, however not warned of internet issue

Beautiful hotel and lovely staff, unfortunately internet had been down days prior to my arrival. Sadly I was not informed before arriving and as this was a business trip, lack of internet affected by trip / work schedule.

Stately home

Great place to stopover (we had a long trip from southern England to northern Scotland). Very dog friendly with beautiful parks for the dogs to run. It just feels like you’re staying in a stately home.

Lovely house and grounds. All the staff friendly and helpful. The food was really good as well. Id recommend getting to Springkell via Eaglesfield direction as gps navigation can send you the wrong way. I think the house and grounds are being restored very well.

We were really impressed with Springkell as soon as we approached it from the driveway and even more impressed with the interior of the hotel. This is a 1st class hotel and we really enjoyed our time at Springkell. In particular the common areas are stunning with magnificent plaster mouldings on the ceilings and a really special main staircase. If I would change anything at all I would install a bell push to call for assistance at the reception desk as it is not always manned. Although the driveway is very bumpy, it is well worth this minor inconvenience. I would definitely recommend Springkell and we will be returning next time we’re visiting this area of Scotland.

We chose Springkell because it was a stately home and we had not stayed in one. The man who booked us in was excellent. He works at the hotel for a summer holiday job. He gave us lots of information about the hotel's history. We enjoyed our stay and breakfast was very good. The only disappointing aspects were our room was ridiculously small, the mattress was soft and you rolled into the middle of the bed. We were not very hungry and only had soup and entree type food and a cheese platter. What we ate apart from the soup, was very poor in quantity and flavour. The cheese platter was a disgrace. I did mention this on checking out and hope they improve this for future guests. Apart from our couple of disaapoint,ents with food and our room the ambience of the house is worth a stay.

I dont usually leave reviews, but I have to say how stunning this hall hotel & cottages are. We stayed in Stables cottage as there are 5 of us. We had a gorgeous, unbelievably equipped kitchen with everything you need. Every device was high end. The nain bed is huge, emperor size i think. Im used to a King size, but this was beautiful. The bathroom is stunning, with a fab walk in shower & ckaw footed bath. The grounds are stunning, with secluded woods, a huge field with football nets, which our boys loved. There also a huge trampoline. The Hall Hotel was beautiful. A hidden gem!

Loved the Character

The staff were wonderful - so nice and helpful. Always checking to make sure we had what we needed. We loved the old historic feel to the building yet our room was newly remodeled. The 2 breakfasts and 1 dinner we had were excellent and tasty. We would highly recommend and would certainly come back if we ever return to Scotland.
