Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We arrived very late and had called ahead to let the staff know we would be late for our dinner reservation. We were told the kitchen closes at 9:30pm but would have sandwiches or salads available. We arrived after 9:30pm and upon arrival we were escorted to the drawing room to relax for a few minutes, but to our surprise they kept the staff in and served us a full dinner. We felt so bad they kept their staff on just for us, but that is the level of service we received at all times. I would HIGHLY recommend Glenapp Castle! Our room was spacious, cozy, clean and very well-appointed. Again, definitely a place I would stay again when back in Scotland
