Quirky five bedroom luxury holiday home in Scotland near Dalbeattie with a private hot tub, an ideal retreat for families or groups looking for dog friendly hot tub accommodation within easy reach of the coast. Walk through the courtyard up to the front door, and as you enter this historic castle you will feel as though you have been transported back in time! The wood-panelled hallway with impressive period features – including the resident knight – takes you up the solid wood staircase to the first floor. The stone floors and thick tapestry curtains lead you into the drawing room with wood-panelled walls and a huge feature fireplace with an open fire. This room is atmospheric and allows you to catch up as a party and live like a lord and lady for the day. Heading up the stone spiral staircase, you will find a bathroom and a bedroom which it is believed to have once hosted Mary Queen of Scots and boasts a lovely king-size four-poster bed. Head up the spiral staircase to the second floor and you will find a second bedroom with a double four-poster bed. On the top floor, you will find a double bedroom with WC. Adjoining the castle but accessed externally, there are two fully refurbished, beautifully designed, and tastefully decorated king-size bedrooms which are in keeping with the rest of the castle. Across the courtyard, set externally, there is a separate building which houses a commercial-style kitchen which is well equipped – if you would like to arrange catering this can be done with the owners, please let us know. There is also a magnificent banquet hall with a fire, beams and stone walls which makes the perfect venue for a special occasion; this too can be booked in advance of your stay with the owners. The grounds and garden are great to explore with lawns, sunken gardens and river walks. There is a private hot tub overlooking the garden where you can relax and unwind after a busy day exploring. There is lockable storage for bikes and an outside hose. Enjoy an early morning coffee over a good book in the fresh air, or in the evening, sit and watch the stars come out.
