The very nice welcome, with a superb location to boot.

We just got back from a night away at Buittle Castle and it was beautiful. Tobias greeted us on arrival, plenty of parking and he was the most attentive host, nothing was too much trouble for him. We stayed in the Lady Maxwell room and it was really quirky and the decor was gorgeous and traditional. Comfy bed, tea and coffee making facilities, beautiful views out the window. We dined at the Laurie Arms which was a quaint pub down the road, really friendly and lovely food. We came back to the outdoor hot tub which Tobias had heated and prepared for us, where we immersed ourselves into some star gazing and relaxation. Lovely and warm when we went back to our room, pipes were on and shower was lovely and hot. We had a full Scottish breakfast the next morning all home cooked, it was lovely, good portion sizes accompanied by coffee and toast. For the price and location, it really was amazing value for money and would not hesitate to go back again.

Nothing at all. Just a point to make: There is no TV in the Lady Maxwell room. This may not be to everyone's choice, however it suited us as we wanted to escape the usual routine and enjoy the peace and quiet.

Set in a beautiful location, this unique property is undergoing renovation which is ongoing and has been done very tastefully. The room is spacious, yet cosy with a big comfy bed. The host was very welcoming with great communication beforehand and very helpful during my stay. Breakfast was plentiful and freshly cooked. I ate in the Great Hall which is fabulous, but you can have it delivered to your room if you prefer. Good wifi which was important as I stayed here in a work trip, no issues streaming or accessing my work files.

Watch out for the hairpin bend when coming off the main road on arrival, it's very tight

We loved absolutely everything .friendly ..kind ..caring owners who made us feel so welcome we are looking forward to our return .

We truly loved our stay, no more than our two spaniels. Tobias was an incredible host. We have never visited such a dog friendly place. Our room was beautiful, great care and attention has been given to the decoration and furnishings. I liked the fresh flowers and coffee machine as well as the Scottish breakfast that was served each morning in the room, with a pot of fresh coffee. The communication throughout the booking was brilliant. Tobias was warm and welcoming. It’s a very peaceful and quiet venue. The grounds are lovely to walk around. Our dogs just loved it.

Nothing. Really didn’t want to go.

We absolutely loved our stay in The Lady Maxwell Room at Buittle Castle. The level of attention to detail the owners have put into decorating each room, designing the garden, and restoring the castle is incredible and makes the experience all the more special. It was so nice to learn from James about the history of the land and their ancestors. There is plenty of parking, the bed was comfortable , it's near some lovely towns with great restaurants and there appears to be a resident peacock. He was beautiful! Breakfast was delicious and the presentation was delightful. We would stay again in a heartbeat.

On arrival our host informed us that the room we had booked was unavailable due to unexpected circumstances, so we were given The Munches Room instead . The room was lovely with everything needed to make our stay comfortable. Our host had given us clear instructions via emails on arrival details and directions a few days before our departure, which was very helpful. We were served breakfast in our room each morning by our host , which was lovely. The hot tub was available for us to use , which was a fantastic bonus . Overall we had a fabulous experience staying at the Castle and we were made to feel very welcome.

Nothing to dislike.

Absolutely amazing stay. It felt so magical there, from the view of the tower, to the vintage decor of the room, to the delicious private meal we had in the stunning Great Hall. Tobias was so welcoming and friendly and even gave us a tour inside the castle, which they had renovated so beautifully. A lovely breakfast was served in our room the next day and even their sweet peacock, Perry, came to say hi. Thank you so much for making my birthday so special. We will definitely be back! P.S. Comfiest bed ever!

What a beautiful and quirky place to stay. We chose the property due to location on the way back to England from Cairnryan. Dog friendly which is a big bonus. The property and grounds are beautiful. We loved the decor of our room and the huge comfortable bed. It was beautifully quiet overnight and warm too, which surprised us, given the historic nature of the property. We chose a continental breakfast which came with loads of pastries. Overall, a fabulous overnight and so special compared to most bnb options. We would love to visit again.

Nothing not to like.

Host Tobias was very friendly and informative Amazing breakfast in the evening more amazing dining room This stay was one of our highlights Just wish we had of thought to organise dinner as I heard that too was amazing we were told by the other guests we spoke to at breakfast who also said the dining room at night was magical Thanks Tobias we will definitely recommend your beautiful property to friends and if we are back in Scotland the castle will definitely be on our list to revisit So much history we wish you all the best for the future

I thought the hot tub may have been inside and it was a little cold to be outside at night however it would be amazing on a warm night to sit out under the stars
