Ocean View Holiday House

Lovely historic house with charm and comfort.

Very easy process to make a booking. Clear instructions and details of the property.

Large Upmarket Lodge

The property, especially the land was absolutely beautiful. There was a little confusion in the weeks leading up to arrival with how the key/unlocking situation was going to happen. I got shuffled back and forth between owner and property management several times before understanding the process. Even though I was following the instructions on the welcome packet that said to contact the owner for these details, the owner kept telling me no, I had to contact the property rental company for this. Very confusing. In the end, it all worked out.

The property, as I said, was beautiful. However, not all rooms were created equal - on one hand this gives character; on another had I have been able to identify which room was which ie matching the floor plan to pictures perhaps, I would have selected very different configuration for guests. Some rooms were beautifully appointed, others were barren and I was embarrassed to have placed someone in there.

Lastly, the beds were TERRIBLE. For the quality of place, I expected way better mattresses. I must have had at least 75% (9 out of 12) of my people "provide feedback" about the mattresses being SO HARD and some could feel the springs that they couldn't get a good night sleep.

Regulating the temperature was a challenge and many of us remained very hot throughout stay, especially at night in our rooms. Even after twisting the dial on the radiators, the heat did not seem to turn down...it's very possible we just didn't know how to do it. And we never mentioned this, so we didn't give anyone a chance to fix this for us.

On a positive note, the grounds were incredible. The common spaces absolutely perfect - a lot of space, very comfortable, totally conducive to my program, etc. The red room, dining room and kitchen were spectacular.

Kate, the owner, was very responsive when we ran into a few issues like not having enough hair dryers - she sent the groundskeeper to help remedy situation immediately. I was very thankful for her quick response and support.

Vicky was most helpful with all of my questions as well as negotiating the dates and time period with the owner.

Cute Castle Apartment

Fantastic location and very impressive property. The apartment was very well equipped and comfortable.

I would definitely book with Scott's Castle Holidays again. The process was quick and easy and I was provided with timely, relevant information by email.

Castle Tower Apartment

Historic, well equipped, spotless and comfortable.

The communication with staff was excellent. The accommodation was also top notch. Charming, spotlessly clean and comfy.

Holiday House with a view

We loved our stay at the house. Very well stocked kitchen. Downstairs layout was a bit difficult for as as we had 17 people - the dining room was a squeeze. But it did not affect our overall enjoyment of our time there.

Would recommend and use again. The customer service was swift and excellent.

Monumental Castle

In need of repair and upgrading. We were all thrilled to stay in a castle and did not expect it to be a bijou hotel but leaks in ceilings and fridge freezers in need of repair were not expected!!!

Personal service quick to respond

Castle Tower Apartment

The Castle was very well equipped, spacious and beautifully furnished.The bedrooms were warm and very comfortable. There were 13 of us and we found that everything worked so very well for us. We had a marvellous time and all agreed that our time at the castle had been very special. Thank you.

The staff enjoyed welcoming you and your family and hope to welcome you again soon

I received every possible advice and information and there was excellent communication between Scotts and the Castle.I found every member of staff courteous and friendly and delighted that we had such a lovely holiday.I would recommend this agency to my friends as a first rate organization.

We loved helping you find somewhere special for your milestone birthday and delighted to hear it was such a success!

Beautiful Historic Mansion

A great house and once all backlog in maintenance is done it will be 5 *
Fantastic kitchen and dining room with sufficient crockery, glasses and linnen.
Surrounding is beautiful and very quiet.

The owner loved having you to stay and hopes you'll return again by which time he hopes it'll have moved from a comfortable 4 star to luxury 5 star property with all the work he has planned!

We would certainly recommend the house to friends and we enjoyed the house and the service provided.
We note that the house requires some doing and we could see that this is being taken on bit by bit with notably the very new and modern kitchen with all modcons.

Thanks for your feedback, we're eager to get photos of the new kitchen and glad to hear you enjoyed all the mod cons!
