Dalhousie Castle. A fascinating
13th century fortress set within acres of wooded parkland on
the picturesque banks of the river Esk. From the moment you arrive
at Dalhousie Castle, a warm Scottish welcome awaits. Whether
relaxing in the fabulous Aqueous Spa, enjoying one of the library’s
extensive collection of books and a drink from the ‘secret
bar’ next to the open fire, dining in the ancient barrel
vaulted dungeon on our exceptional cuisine or relaxing in your
unique castle bedroom, you will always feel as welcome as the
‘Laird’.
The countryside of the Scottish
Borders is some of the loveliest to be found anywhere in the
world. However, for over five hundred years it was also some
of the most fiercely contested. Dalhousie Castle, standing just
a few miles south of Edinburgh, occupied a position of great
strategic importance, and so was witness to more than its fair
share of history. What better setting could there be to enjoy
Falconry, the sport of kings, with the Castle as a back drop.
It is ironic that a building,
once so warlike, should have become an inviting hotel that now
prides itself on the warmness of the welcome it extends to visitors.
Just 7 miles from Edingburgh city centre and 14 miles from Edinburgh
Airport.
From the moment you arrive, a warm wholehearted Scottish welcome
awaits you, to ensure you feel completely relaxed and at home.
The friendly atmosphere of the Castle, created by a very special
relationship between the staff, management and guests, and the
warmth and style of timeless interiors guarantees to make every
visit a memorable one.
