Really enjoyed the food here. I had the steak & Ale pie the first night and the beef fillet the next. Large portions ? Service was excellent , staff very friendly. I would highly recommend the food! Coming back again soon!!

The staff was lovely and managed to find us the table even though there was a wedding reception going on in the hotel.The burger was too well done, the oat latte was off, and tasted a little bit funny. The £18 fish I ordered was supposed to be salmon and on the plate I got some other white fish (which was delicious but not what I ordered). We didn't have a heart to tell the waiter because we knew they were extremely busy. We were very hungry so the portions seemed small.Worth a visit if you're in the area but stay clear of the coffee ☕Scotland | UK | RestaurantParking: A lot of space in front of the hotel to park.

Living local to the area, myself, partner and 1 year old enjoy using the swimming pool. The pool & changing facilities are comfortable, clean and at a good temperature. We are only in the water for no more than 30 mins, but our son enjoys every minute. My only gripe (and that's why it's not the full 5 star review) is the price. To my understanding, it is £10 per person to use the facilities. This includes the gymnasium & the swimming pool. We will never use the gym and only use the pool. Therefore we feel £10 per person is really expensive. I would encourage a re think over pricing and would see value in a £10 per person if indeed you were to use both pool & gym. However, If only one facility was required, a £6 per entry would be sufficient. All in my own opinion of course.

a fantastic hotel, old building but lovely. excellent service, and food was amazing. the staff were all so helpful at all times. the bar was not over expensive. their chef must be good as all the food was top class , the rooms and bathrooms very comfortable and clean. soaps and lotions in the bathroom great, and lovely clean big towels. heated towel rails In bathrooms.

The staff are so friendly and given the many offers that the hotel offers this hotel offers great value for money if visiting the area. Yes in some area the hotel looks tired but it is clean, warm and offers a good choice of meals to suit all but above all the hotel is friendly and welcoming, what more can you ask for during a weekend break

One night stay in the Tweedale suite. Beautiful exterior of the Castle, really striking as you approach. We arrived couple of hours before check in so we had a wander around the grounds and took in the fantastic map of Scotland. Grounds themselves are more woodland walks than manicured gardens, but lovely all the same. (Did notice a bit of litter about the place though, which was a bit of a shame.) After our wander, we sat in the lounge and had a couple of drinks waiting on the room. After getting the keys, we headed up and on initial entry, we were very happy. Separate entry hall, huge main bedroom, with leather sofa, beautiful four poster bed, nesprrsso machine, big TV. You also get wee snippets of the views out of the windows. The sunken bath in the turret is also very impressive. After spending a bit of time in the room and using the facilities, Barony suffers what all Scotland Country Castle Hotels seem to suffer from and that's tiredness. Simple things and cheap to fix like cracked lampshades on the bedside table, peeling paint on one of the walls. Nothing major, but noticeable - and can make all the difference in your overall impression and stay. Onto dinner which was superb. Really lovely menu, venison I had was just sublime. Service at dinner was a wee bit iffy - No drinks order taken when we were sat down, and we didn't actually get our drinks until we were halfway through our starters. Breakfast was pretty good, decent selection and well cooked. I always judge a hotel based on would we pay what we paid and go back? On this occasion we probably would, as it was a good DBB offer. However, If it was full priced? Sadly probably not.

This is our 2nd visit Great food and friendly staff. There was a party night event while we were there- which was ok. The food was not as good as the restaurant standard, and the Freddie Mercury singer was too much acting and not that great singer.

Just had an amazing 2course lunch here .young barman was amazing and was rushed off his feet .so polite and attentive.will definitely return for lunch very soon.all staff were very polite and friendly
We got married at the barony in feb 2022 and have just been back for our anniversary stay, we had the Deanview suite and it is absolutely beautiful and was immaculate! We also had dinner and breakfast and the restaurant staff are so polite and friendly and nothing is too much to ask! The food was amazing!! We had a slight issue with the water temperature but we spoke to the man at reception who I didn’t catch the name of ( very polite and so nice of him to ask us how our first year being married has been) and this was sorted very quickly. The pool is also really good we used this twice during our stay. The bar staff are great especially Ryan who was working on our anniversary stay and our wedding night, I would also recommend having your wedding at the Barony the wedding team are great and we had the most amazing wedding

We had a good deal for a nights stay with dinner and dance for Burns night. The hotel is pretty outside and the rooms are fine. Dog friendly wich is great. Food was a little disappointing, definitely on the basic side but for what we paid it was a bargain

This is our second visit to Barony Castle and we thoroughly recommend it! The setting is spectacular with extensive grounds which are great for dog walking! The staff couldn’t be more welcoming, helpful and respectful. Our rooms have been great, very comfortable with everything you could possibly need and we have slept very well. The food is top quality both for breakfast and dinner. The ambiance in the bar has been lovely. Overall it has been a refreshing change staying at a family run establishment providing real hospitality rather than the hotel chains that are taking over!
