Today, Culcreuch Castle Hotel retains all the romance and charm that its heritage entitles it to, yet it has been sensitively upgraded and is professionally managed to offer an excellent standard of comfort and luxury accommodation.

The Laird's Hall, the largest of Culcreuch's public rooms, covers the entire first floor of the tower, the oldest part of the building.
Originally the great hall of the castle, it is now beautifully decorated and furnished with period antiques. It's ideal for formal banquets or a range of social and corporate events.

The Drawing Room, overlooking the loch, acts as a Resident's Lounge, a quiet area for winding down, reading, writing postcards or for a relaxed morning coffee.


The Carved Hall at the entrance to the Castle is often used for receiving guests in conjunction with events held on the front lawn.

Galbraith Hall, originally the stables, retains its stone walls and has a less formal feel than the main building. This is the scene of larger banquets and dances.

And, oh yes, we also have a ghost who wanders in and around the Castle from time to time. We think she's a lady and we know she's friendly, though she only seems to appear to people who think no castle would be complete without a resident ghost!
