Castle holiday rentals in British Isles

The pictures genuinely do not do this place justice, the apartment was so stunning we didn’t want to leave Grounds are gorgeous and lots of wildlife around, we didn’t do any activities but there’s lots to do at the castle If you’re wanting to eat out in the local town book ahead as the restaurants fill up very quickly

Billy and his wife were very welcoming. We had a cake baked for us and the apartment was very clean and homely.

The lodge was unbelievably beautiful and the pictures don’t do it justice. Felt like a dream and the host was great. Made sure we had what we needed for a peaceful and pleasant stay. Probably one of the best views we’ve had while enjoying our breakfast. Would absolutely recommend East Lodge and will have to come back

Great location for exploring the Cotswolds as well as Bath and Bristol. Cute, well equipped space.

Excellent stay at Glengorm castle. Would definitely stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay. Tracy and Michael's recommendations were really valued and the property had everything we needed and was warm and comfortable. When visiting this area again, we wouldn't hesitate in booking with them again.

Truly a beautiful place off the beaten path. We were lucky to see the wild pigs, ponies and peacocks. Great place to just unwind!

Stayed for a weekend; if we could rate this as 20 out of 10 we would. The Gatehouse and all the surrounding grounds were beyond beautiful. Laura was welcoming and informative, everything was, truly, beyond expectation. Superb value for money. We will definitely be back.

The property is truly extraordinary. Breathtaking natural scenery and great value for money. Simply the perfect place to switch off. Admittedly, the property is a bit off the beaten track. But there is pure nature. We were four couples, so eight people, and we still had a spare bedroom. We saw countless rabbits, wild deer, pheasants and squirrels. Then of course there are all the horses, cows and sheep from the farm. it doesn't get much more idyllic than this! Within a radius of 15 minutes to 1.5 hours by car, there are lots of great activities to do. We were there in end april and to our surprise there were very few to no other tourists in the area. Even at attractions such as Belmoral Castle, Glamis Castle or Dunnottar Castle the crowds were really small. The region is definitely far away from over-tourism. Car hire is certainly a must-have. We drove here from Edingburgh. About half of the journey is motorway, after that it's country road. My warmest recommendation - go there!

What even to say. This is SUCH an amazing respite. A slice of Highland Heaven. There are 100 apartments in this converted Abbey, which is RIGHT on Loch Ness. It’s beyond beautiful. Playground, pool, outdoor chess, walking trails, all amazing. We had great service from the Highland Clib checking in, with an incredibly friendly front desk worker. Walkable to everything, maybe 4 minutes was the longest walk we had. The local boat cruise is a must. Watching the boats go through the canal was also fun. Basically, incredible. We will be back.

Great location and such a cool experience staying in the gatehouse. Will definitely come back. If you have young kids the sleeping arrangements require some compromise but we made it work. The interior could do with a touch up, it was looking a little tired but that’s me being picky. Great place to stay and free entry to the castle is well worth it

Wow. The most unique place we’ve ever stayed in. Definitely the highlight of our trip. The place itself: dusty, dank, spidery, tricky stairs, odd layout, weird headroom. In other words, a perfect “castle” experience. The history of the property is evident and fascinating. The owners have done a thoughtful “conservation” of the original 15th century structure. And it was great to be away from the touristy places, in rural Ireland, with mostly locals, small towns and villages, and gorgeous rolling countryside. Highly recommend to anyone looking for authenticity.

Everything about our stay in the boys dormitory was superb. We would highly recommend to anyone looking for a stay in such a unique accommodation especially with all of the access to the abbeys modern facilities was a huge bonus. Me and my wife couldn’t get enough of the lake views from our sitting room.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Pele Tower at Irton Hall, and it was a truly memorable experience. Nestled in a serene location, the surroundings are incredibly calm and peaceful—perfect for a relaxing getaway. The gardens are absolutely beautiful, full of charm and character. Spotting peacocks and chickens roaming freely added a delightful, almost magical touch to the atmosphere. It felt like stepping into a countryside fairy tale. The accommodation itself was excellent. The 3 stored tower was exceptionally spacious, spotless, and very comfortable. It offered a perfect blend of historic charm and modern comfort. Everything was well-maintained and thoughtfully prepared. If you’re looking for a quiet retreat surrounded by nature and history, I highly recommend Pele Tower at Irton Hall. It’s a hidden gem that offers both relaxation and a touch of uniqueness.

This place is quite special: the Apartment is in the oldest Part of the converted Abbey. It is very large, nicely furnished with extremely comfortable sofas and beds and has a very nice kitchen and bathroom. But this isn‘t all, there is the swimmingpool, gameroom etc. that you can use - even though the place was pretty full we hardly saw other people and did not hear anything from them in the flat. The absolut greatest thing about the place is it’s location right on the Loch Ness, tranquill and beautiful.

Enjoyed the accommodations, everything worked well. Good heat and hot water. Beautiful location, plenty of places to walk on the property. Close access to local shopping & restaurants.

A beautiful place to stay , with so many extras , felt totally private and loved the use of the outdoor seating area and hot tub . Both me & my wife said it had been one of our favourites, note to others book somewhere to eat if travelling at the weekend. The only ‘extras’ we d of liked would have been robes & slippers but that said that’s being picky . A beautiful find .

John's castle is just amazing. Everything we could only dream of. Setting is idyllic, relaxing, homely, spacious and grand. Laura welcomed us, showed us around and was friendly and made us feel at home. Breakfast was a treat and cooked beautifully. Any questions we needed answered were done quickly. We dined out at two of the recommended pubs and the food was brilliant. Our labrador Holly was made to feel like one of the guests. She had the run of the castle, loved the walks that were close by and of course the lake truly made her experience 5* too. My children enjoyed a singing lesson with Laura and there was no problem with general noise the children made. We met John and he was a knowledgeable gentleman. Thank you for letting us stay in your home John and many thanks to Laura for everything you did for us too.

Beautiful cottage in a wonderful location. We thoroughly recommend and can also recommend the surrounding area for the walks, beaches, pubs, castles. The cottage has everything you need and is really comfortable.

Such a great spot, if you want to relax on the grounds with the kids and dog or head out, there’s plenty to keep everyone entertained. Very unique stay. Thanks to the host for a memorable stay.

Peaceful location tucked away in a beautiful part of the Peak District. The accommodation did not disappoint. It felt very exclusive. The check in information was clear and unambiguous. We appreciated the heads up to purchase supplies prior to arrival as the nearest supermarket is probably a 15 minute drive away. The accommodation had everything you could need and that would expect from a luxury hotel, with the addition of cooking facilities. We were able to walk straight from the accommodation on the circular route of Kinder scout. It was then a short drive to a lovely local pub for dinner.

Pele Tower is a beautifully and lovingly restored building, and Ann and Andy have thought of pretty much everything. Every time we needed something, it was already there. The welcome hamper was a lovely touch and got us immediately set up for the week. The pictures are 100% representative and in fact don’t do it justice. Ann and Andy are absolutely lovely too. Had a lovely week working from Killington and exploring the area and would very much recommend.

Beautiful cottage with everything you could possibly need. Everything has been thought about. Want to sit in the garden but it's a bit chilly, it's ok they have blankets. Want to have a bbq outside, brilliant they have the bbq and kitchen full of utensils and plastic plates, bowels, and cups to prevent breakages. The bathroom is stocked with shampoo, body wash, bath salts, towels... The list is endless with all the extras that come with this cottage. It's clean and tidy. Beds are comfy. There really isn't anything to complain about about. We did 2 nights here and could easily have done more. Thank you 😊

The suite was beautiful. The views and peaceful surroundings were priceless. We loved the area, but ended up spending more time at the rental than expected due to the beautiful surroundings. Highly recommend.
