Glenapp Castle

服務好、吃點好，環境優美 住宿時下雨不好有點可惜，下次睛天時來

I purchased vouchers for my dad's 75th birthday to allow him to experience an overnight stay and afternoon tea at this stunning location with my mum, my friend and myself. Amazing, wonderful, perfect, stunning and everyone should stay or dine here at least once. The staff met us at our car after gaining secure entry at the gate and greeted us warmly in reception before Jen showed us personally to our table for afternoon tea just off the stunning drawing room. The food and drinks served were outstanding. Everything was so fresh and the attention to detail was amazing. After our meal Jen took us to our rooms while our luggage was delivered by another member of staff. My parents Grand Sea View room was the Countess Suite with stunning views across the sea to Ailsa Craig. My friend and I stayed in the Ardstinchar Garden View room which also had Ailsa Craig views from the amazing bathroom. The gardens are stunning and we took a wander after our afternoon tea down to the Glasshouse to view the art and take in our stunning surroundings. There are no tea trays in the suites at the castle so Jen arranged for us to have drinks delivered to our room free of charge which is a lovely touch when you are ordering speciality coffees and their signature hot chocolate. Jen delivered these drinks herself and these were accompanied by shortbread and rock buns as well. We did not have dinner in the hotel as we were so full we had to take a large part of our afternoon tea back to the room with us which we enjoyed later before enjoying the comfort of our beautiful beds for the night. Breakfast the next morning was every bit as perfect as the afternoon tea had been the day before with lots of choice . Presentation was impeccable again and all the food was so fresh and tasty. Jen also took part in serving us breakfast and gave us a little history lesson about the castle in the drawing room before we went to eat. We visited the beautiful library before we checked out as well. Luckily we had lovely clear sunny days when at the venue but I would still love it in any weather. I truly hope when we return that the experience is as amazing as this trip. I could not fault anything about this hotel and if you are planning on visiting then do not hesitate as you will not be disappointed. Special thanks to Jen for all her help, service and friendliness throughout our stay. A lot of hotels could learn from her and she is a great asset to have at Glenapp Castle. Thank you again for a wonderful stay and we look forward to a future visit.

Our second break at Glenapp, and we are looking forward to our next visit. We had the 7 course taster menu on both nights and what a treat. The food is sublime, probably the best we have had. The staff are brilliant. Nothing is too much bother. Highly recommended. Edward & Beverley Barber-Fleming Knockdolian 29-30 jan 25
