Set amongst magnificent gardens and woodland, the spectacular Glenapp Castle, with its Victorian greenhouses and views across the Irish Sea, is the perfect setting for a delightful stay.
EXPERIENCE
In April 2000 Glenapp Castle, a vast and spectacular Victorian mansion set high above the village overlooking the Irish Sea and the island of Ailsa Craig, opened its doors as an exclusive luxury hotel. Within the castle there are graceful lounges and elegant dining rooms as well as 17 individually furnished and decorated bedrooms and suites and seemingly endless oak paneled hallways and corridors.
All rooms and suites are handsomely furnished with personally chosen antiques and fine oil paintings, and individually decorated to the highest standard in traditional style. The two Master Rooms are palatial in size, with highly ornate cornice-work. There are two suites, which in addition to the bedroom area have an interconnecting sitting room. All of the castle's rooms are bright and sunny thanks to the tall and elegant Victorian windows and all rooms have luxurious traditionally appointed en suite facilities. Many bedrooms have real flame coal/gas fires , and all rooms have superb views of the gardens or the coastline, or both in many cases.
Dining in the gracious surroundings of the elegant castle dining rooms, while watching the sun set over Ailsa Craig and The Mull of Kintyre, is a truly unique experience. The castle has been awarded Three Rosettes by the AA and one Michelin Star. Each evening, guests enjoy a romantic six course gourmet dinner prepared by a skilled and professional team.
The castle is open to individual guests as an exclusive luxury retreat from April through December each year and is available throughout the year for exclusive use reservations.
