The Munches Room at Buittle Castle, a Georgian Style Stay in a Medieval Castle

An amazing stay. Amazing room and atmosphere. And amazing host

Back again, everything as was expected.Tobias is an excellent host and nothing is ever too much. Private dining in the great hall was wonderful and highly recommended. Will definitely be back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the castle. Our en-suite room was warm, spacious and comfortable. Breakfast and dinner were excellent. Above all else, our hosts were attentive, friendly and welcoming.

Once again, Tobias was the perfect host to 2 excellent nights & days. We have every intention of returning next year and would say staying here was one of the highlights of our trip. 5 *.

An outstanding accommodation offering exceptional historical significance coupled with superior culinary excellence. The property integrates authentic period architecture with contemporary amenities, with very competitive pricing. The dining experience demonstrated restaurant-calibre standards. Highly recommended for discerning travellers seeking cultural enrichment and exceptional value.

Buittle castle is an old but beautiful castle. The rooms are decorated exquisitely the attention to detail is lovely. Tobias is an excellent host so polite and charming. We had dinner in the great hall although the room was a little chilly it was September the food was wonderful. Would stay again if in the area.

We have just returned from a fantastic stay in The Munches bedroom at Buittle Castle. Tobias our host, was just fabulous and cooked delicious breakfast which we took in the main hall. The history of the place is just so intriguing and interesting and Tobias’s knowledge is just remarkable. We choose to have an evening meal here and had the opportunity to eat inside the castle… what a wonderful experience, creating enchanting memories of a time lived here. Alongside, delicious food and wonderful conversation with our host, Tobias. (A definite must do). This place is totally unique, you really feel a part of history especially knowing it’s importance and that Mary Queen of Scots stayed here. The restoration project is a 20-30year project so don’t expect everything to be guilded and finished. it’s unique, quirky, interesting and very, very special place that hopefully we will return too. What a fabulous holiday we have had - thank you

We had a lovely time and wished we could stay longer. The room is furnished elegantly and to a high standard, with lots of lovely touches and absolutely nothing cheap or nasty. The host is charming. The breakfast was excellent. The setting is peaceful and beautiful. We had everything we needed and there was nothing to spoil the special atmosphere.

My parter and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this fabulous little castle. Our room’s decor was beautiful and the bed very comfy. Breakfast was served in the grand hall which was extra special, and the breakfast itself was delicious. The gardens are stunning and there are plenty of seating areas, plus a short circular walk around the gardens and along the river. The owner Tobias was there to greet us and told us all about the fascinating history of the castle. The area itself is lovely and we visited Castle Douglas, Kippford and Mabie Forest.

Beautiful room with amazing grounds. Peaceful quiet and relaxing. Perfect location. The decoration was exceptional

Friendly owners, lovely historic place to stay and well kept grounds, nice area for walks or just sit in the garden and take in the views

We really enjoyed staying in the unique rooms. It was quiet, the room was spacious, and the breakfast was delicious. The medieval building is secluded and has a special flair, both inside and out. The owner is approachable and helpful.

Buittle Castle is a fascinating and beautiful place to stay. The owners James and Tobias are charming and full of information about the history of the place and it's restoration. The room we stayed in is decorated in medieval style but with all mod-cons so very comfortable. The gardens and grounds can be used by guests and we were lucky enough to have a warm spring evening to enjoy a glass of wine in the sunken garden! The peacock is spectacular! We had breakfast and dinner both of which were delicious. The Castle is very conveniently located for visiting Dalbeattie, local woodlands and the Solway coast. My only tiny criticism would be that the Great Hall where we ate was a little gloomy and chilly though the medieval decor almost made up for that!

Stayed for 3 nights but could have easily have stayed longer. Fab & unusual place to stay with great/attentive host, limited (but good) breakfast and hot tub. Would not hesitate to stay again.

My husband and I regularly stay at this excellent property and appreciate being recognised and welcomed as returning visitors. The staff go well above what is necessary to provide for their guests and have never failed to fulfil any particular request we have made. The cooked Scottish breakfast is superb and the newly-available Viennese breakfast a fine addition to the choices. I also highly recommend the private dining experience in one of the castle's interesting historic rooms. The decanter of sherry in the room is a nice touch.

We had a very comfortable two night stay at the Castle and enjoyed our time. Tobias made the visit special. He took the time to answer questions and provide recommendations about local activities. He answered all my questions about the gardens and genuinely helped me with my own project. He is the kindest person I have met in a very long time, and generous with his time and care. I will absolutely be staying again.

Stayed a night for Dinner, Bed and Breakfast and everything was so special! Decor of the room was exquisite and we had a lovely, atmospheric, romantic meal in the tower dining room! We felt so privileged Tobias let us dine in his home, he made the experience so personal from start to finish. The bed was extremely comfortable and the shower was lovely - hot and powerful! Gorgeous location, we did several good hikes around the area. All in all, a beautiful experience for a couple wanting to have a romantic night away in a unique setting.

We booked the munchies room initially due to it being all on the ground floor. My wife is disabled and this is something that we always look for. We were delighted that we came across Buittle Castle and would definitely stay there again. In the early evening we heard a strange sound from the courtyard. It turned out to be a beautiful Peacock walking past our door. That's not something you see every day The bed was extremely comfortable. The full cooked breakfast was fantastic. Our waitress brought breakfast to our room so my wife didn't need to worry about walking any distance. We can't fault the place. Beautiful surroundings, spotlessly clean, pleasant and welcoming host. No hesitation in recommending to others.

Lovely place I'll be coming again

Lovely stay in a very unusual setting, carefully restored castle, clean and cosy, welcoming host, good breakfast.

Charles waited up for us until 11 pm because of a delayed flight. The place was clean and comfortable and very accommodating. I would absolutely stay again.

The stay here was everything we expected. The only issue was the weather but not much that could be done about that. The dinner was lovely and good value for money.

Loved our stay. Atmospheric location. Comfortable room. Great breakfast - in a baronial hall! Very attentive service.

Delicious croissants for breakfast in a historic dining hall. Friendly and responsive hosts. Interesting history of the castle.
