For our last night in Scotland, my boyfriend booked a room at Shieldhill Castle and I can't say enough about it. Everything was wonderful. The only complaint I could come up with was the shower was small but we managed. We were lucky enough to get the Chancellor Room and it was perfect. HUGE room with double jacuzzi and views... more

Booked the Chancellors restaurant one evening, as staying in a cottage nearby for our honeymoon. Wished we hadn't. Food was not fresh and not well executed. The receptionist was the only member of staff there waiter, bar tender etc, wouldnt be surprised if she did the cooking aswell!! It is clear things have substantially changed in the kitchen since Egon... more

Arrived quite late one evening and was delighted with the warm welcome and excellent room (stables) that had been recently renovated. High quality fittings and comfortable bed. Nice big Tv on wall for watching the news. Excellent coffee maker in room with lots of quality coffe choices. Had evening meal as part of deal. THE best fillet steak I have... more

We went to a friend's wedding at the end of July and to be honest were slightly apprehensive about our stay. The negative comments on this website were the main reason for this. Upon arrival and allocation of our rooms, it took us about 2 minutes to realise that we had nothing to worry about. We stayed in one of... more

One of the worst hotels we stayed in in Scotland. The rooms were very poor and not at all clean, stained carpets and walls, we cancelled our second night. They had the cheek to charge us £30.00 extra for the smallest breakfast I've ever seen on the biggest plate which we shared with the numerous flies buzzing around the 'restaurant'.... more

We first saw Shieldhill in October 2008 - our daughter and her fiance had found the castle on their 'wedding venue hunt' and were bowled over by the warm welcome and beautiful location. They booked it almost immediately. We stayed for hours, just sitting in the lounge drinking coffee and chatting with the ownersand meeting the florists who were recommended... more

We arrived very late (midnight) after our flight was delayed 3 hours. We were tired from the drive, however, as we entered the castle we were greeted by the owner at reception and whisked straight through to the bar - drinks were served (ON THE HOUSE!) to welcome us to Scotland. (Our bags were taken up to our room as... more

I stayed here on a long drive back home. I thought the grounds were lovely. The hotel isn't near to anything so if you want peace and quiet then thats what you will get. On arrival we were greeted by the owner who checked us in and then personally showed us to our rooms. So overall a warm welcome. We... more

I have chosen to write this somewhat negative review 6 months after our wedding as my wife and I first wanted to write to the owners of Shieldhill Castle to express our concerns and invite comment back. We received no acknowledgement of our balanced letter which contained thanks for the areas of service we felt were good as well as... more
