Glenskirlie Castle Hotel

We had a fantastic family Lunch with Santa. Really well organised. So welcoming. elf entertainment was brilliant as was Santa. They had a professional photographer taking pictures of the kids with Santa which you could buy very reasonably, some people buying multiple to give to family. There was also a selfie camera to take family pics at no extra cost. Timings were 1pm to 3pm but nothing was rushed and we weren’t rushed out the door at the end. Food was good and the kids meals were good size portions. All the staff were excellent. Will definitely be back.

My friend and I went for lunch, we picked the festive menu. The restaurant is now to the left of the hotel entrance, the surroundings are beautiful just like the interior. The Christmas decor was beautiful and welcoming. We were immediately greeted by Erin, our waitress, she couldn’t be more attentive! The menu was varied for a festive menu. The food was delicious and plentiful! We both had the Stilton and Broccoli croquettes for starters, the traditional turkey with all the trimmings for mains and cheesecake for dessert, all the courses were delicious even the cranberry sauce was made with fresh cranberries. Also, the potions are very generous. What a delightful lunch we had! 😊

Beautiful room on the first floor, had really high hopes. We had DB&B. The dinner was lovely no complaints at all. The waitress was attentive and made us feel welcomed. Unfortunately as we went to settle down in our room for the night we were subjected to a vibrating floor and a constant beat from the wedding that was happening just below us, along with the smokers having a chat badically outside our window. When we asked at reception how long we would have to endure the noise we were advised midnight. Which was correct and give the wedding party their due there was no further noise. However I do not appreciate going away for a relaxing night to not be able to sleep until after midnight. Although bed was comfy, felt cheated out on a good sleep. Surely guests that are not at the wedding should be on the 2nd floor further away from the party. Not right above it, reception did say probably better to check there was no wedding on when we booked, not to sure this was helpful. Finally the breakfast was also somewhat disappointing in that the rasher of bacon that was served up I could leather my shoe with. Could not get the knife to cut through it, ended up leaving it. At no time did anyone check the breakfast was okay or if we enjoyed our stay. Please make sure if staying for a relaxing break to check if there is a wedding on and if you are on the first floor before confirming your booking.
