This is a beautiful property. Dinner was excellent, the staff was kind and professional. The room was large and the bathroom was luxurious. The food was phenomenal. I wish we had stayed here more than one night. The one problem I had was that one of the mattresses on the king bed in the room was junk and needed replacing.
This mille-feuille was nothing short of a work of art. And it tasted as good as it looked.

Castle has lovely grounds and is very visually appealing. First impression entering hotel was very good. Lovely reception area and very informative and friendly staff member. Room was lovely at first glance however on closer inspection there was quite a few repairs needing done. Then on the bedding there was horrific staining on the bed throw one can only assume what it was so I felt unable to bring this up with staff. During the night I was kept awake most of the night by very noisy guests right through until at least 3am. I went to reception , restaurant and bar however no sign of any staff member. Further to that as the noise continued I tried to telephone reception to no avail. I must stress I do not want any retribution on this staff member as he was very apologetic and tried to make things right in the morning by agreeing for me to have a late check out ahead of a long car journey. I wish I could have enjoyed my stay.

Brilliant 1 day stay

The hotel was located a bit away from Falkirk however the it looked amazing. The hotel room was also set-up well and had wonderful colours. Bathroom was spacious and the bathtub was comfy. I would definitely stay there again! However the walls are rather thin and you can hear a decent amount when people are walking by.
