Mixed thoughts.

We dined in the Lindsey room on the Wednesday. We’re disappointed with the service. Ordered a bottle of wine and when it came it was just put in the table. Wasn’t offered a taste to see if it was ok.we had to pour it ourselves.Were only offered a set menu although an A La Carte menu was on Website. The Bistro on the other hand was excellent for both breakfast and dinner the second night. Staff there were very friendly and helpful. Minor point in rooms was lack of information re Wi-fi and facilities. They were mentioned on check in but a reminder would have been helpful.

Kilconquhar Castle Estate Villa was the perfect location to celebrate our Son’s 40th birthday. Chloe and Yvonne in reception were very friendly and welcoming. We had a lovely meal in The White Cockade Bistro and Jamie Lee and Valentina were both excellent in serving us. I enjoyed my early morning swim before we set off for a walk around Elie.

Hi, we would like to make a complaint but very unclear how to do so on this app Didn't sleep either night due to the constant banging noise coming from the heating / hot water system. Reported this to the estate but were advised to contact yourselves. We have recorded the noise though the night and would like to talk to you about this. There was also a dreadful stroke damp smell throughout the building.
