Andrew

The staff were all fantastic and worked very hard. The food was outstanding, everything was freshly cooked and tasted amazing, compliments to the chef. The room was clean and well appointed.
Louis
United Kingdom United Kingdom
It was amazing, we wanted an escape and that’s what we got. Although it’s “off the beaten track” that’s what we were looking for, the castle itself was what you would expect from a castle, fireplaces to sit with a drink and switch off from the world.
Jeremy
United Kingdom United Kingdom
It was smaller than expected but certainly a warm welcome with traditional open fires and a very cosy atmosphere. Staff were great and the facilities too, in keeping with the surroundings so if you want to sample traditional Scottish hospitality,...

Property information

Dalmunzie Castle is a stunning quintessential laird’s mansion, turreted in the Scots Baronial style and standing proudly at the head of a 6500-acre estate, dating back to 1510. Dalmunzie is nestled in the heart of Glenshee and is surrounded by breathtaking mountains, glens and little rivers all a few steps away from the front door. The hotel has a golf course attached for those with a need to hit a few balls. Despite its isolation, Dalmunzie is less than two hours away from Edinburgh Airport and can be reached down a long 2-mile driveway just off the A93. Peace and tranquillity are features of life at Dalmunzie, with fires and lounges contributing to a relaxing haven. "It was so calm and so solitary... all seemed to breath freedom and peace, and to make one forget the world and its sad turmoils." Queen Victoria's diary, 1848, en-route to Balmoral via Glenshee
