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

Castle Douglas, Dumfries and Galloway, United Kingdom

The Munches Room is carefully appointed in the Adam style, and connects guests to the Jacobite history of Buittle, former home of the Maxwells. The room is on the ground floor, with access to the courtyard (with one step) and its own ensuite bathroom with shower. Full Scottish or American breakfast is included. Gluten-free and vegetarian options are also available. Please let us know of any dietary requirements ahead of time. We aim to offer guests a true country house experience.brbrAs part of our effort to reduce our environmental impact, gourmet tea and coffee are provided by the house manager upon request.brbrThe site which the present tower occupies was once the inner bailey of the medieval Buittle Castle, one of Scotland's royal castles and twice capital of Scotland. Buittle was home to Lady Devorguilla of Galloway and the Bailliol Dynasty, and later a Jacobite stronghold of the Gordon and Maxwell families, who re-constructed the original 13th Century keep into the present L-plan tower, c.1500. Buittle Castle, unlike many such buildings, remains very much a working building, and so retains the 'feel' that these buildings had when first built, surrounded by formal gardens, livestock, vegetable growing and pleasure grounds. It is currently home to James, the 24th great grandson of Lady Devorguilla, and his cousin Tobias, who have re-acquired the castle after roughly 60 years of it being out of family ownership. The site is also home to a working printing office specialising in craft letterpress printing and bookbinding, and a medieval chapel, with an interesting Jacobite history, in which services are regularly celebrated in the pre-reformation Use of Sarum.brbrDue to COVID-19, the Hot Tub is temporarily closed.
