Patrick and his wife were great hosts who clearly care about providing the highest standards for both hospitality and accommodations.

Loved everything, so nothing not to like.

Unique, sincere and warm welcome that enhanced our stay from the very moment we arrived. Patrick and Cecelia certainly made our stay offering a brand of generous hospitality befitting a small Scottish castle.

Wifi was a bit dodgy

It was a fair dinkum castle with a lot of history and set away from all the hustle and bustle. It was an intamet setting.

Patrick the host and his wife Cecilia were incredible. From the moment we arrived nothing was too much trouble. We received a very warm welcome, a history of the castle and help with the bags. The accommodation is fantastic. A wonderful, spacious bedroom, bathroom and the communal dining / seating and bar area. The breakfast in the morning was excellent of very high quality ingredients and locally produced meat products. Patrick and Cecilia provide superb customer service as it should be. A skill and art that is sadly lacking in so many settings. 10/10

Patrick and Cecelia are lovely hosts. They made us feel right at home. The castle is a 400-year-old structure with all the comforts of home. The breakfast was off-the-chain delicious. We enjoyed staying here for our 48th wedding anniversary. You will not regret staying at the castle!

Absolutely nothing to complain about.

Stepping into a castle of several hundred years. Being greeted with the friendliest welcome outside when we parked the car. Being so few rooms the management had time for every single guest. Having a drink together with strangers in the evening, turning out to be a really nice gathering where we got to know each other over a glass. Clean rooms. Everything was thought if, like they themselves came from high quality and knew exactly what to offer. The breakfast was amazing. Local food. Fresh flowers on the table. The atmosphere was to feel and touch. The management was amazing. ❤️

Nothing…..we loved it all!

We were amazed at the decor and Patrick gave us a very warm welcome, including sharing lots of cool’s stories about the castle… Couldn’t believe Henry the 8th stayed in the room next door (some years ago) and we particularly loved the secret passage way from our room to the great hall. Xx

From the moment we arrived at this dreamy 17th century château, our hosts Patrick and Cecilia gave us an extremely warm and friendly welcome. They do a remarkable job of making this château a place of great luxury. There are never any problems for Patrick 🥰. Everything here is luxury, calm and voluptuous. The bedroom and great room are decorated with exquisite, authentic taste. The breakfast is delicious and very copious. In a word, we loved staying at Barcaldine Castle. A timeless place to visit Absolutely

What a stunning place! The castle was wonderful and cozy, not a museum, but a comfortable place to stay. Really a luxury B&B. The staff was marvellous, especially Patrick, who made our stay at the castle unforgettable. He was so friendly and helpful and had also a great sense of humour. Absolutely the best visit we have ever had! Strong recommendation!

Wifi could be improved, I wouldn’t plan on being able to use it while you're there. However, who needs WIFI when you’re in a Castle in Scotland?

Patrick was outstanding; he went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and ease. We couldn't be happier about our stay!

Nothing. This is an amazing place to stay.

Absolutely amazing. The most exceptional accommodation, a genuine Castle full of history, antiques and everything is of the highest quality and standard. So grateful for the opportunity to stay in this wonderful place and the Managers , Patrick & Cecelia were amazing and made us feel so special. Everything is impeccable, service, cleanliness, comfortable bedding, beautiful linen and textiles. The breakfast was fabulous, we appreciated the introduction, tour and history briefing upon arrival and truly enjoyed the great hall and indulging in a tipple in the evening at the bar with Patrick. We will always remember our stay here. Magical

I struggle to even find one part of our stay that wasn’t to our liking. The property was easy to find with our rental car. We loved that the castle was well-preserved but modernized. We loved the staff, they were a highlight. They made the castle feel like a home. The great hall was beautiful and authentic feeling, and the Campbell family history was fascinating, right down to Black Duncan’s legacy and the bottleneck dungeon below.

The location was convenient for us, we were hiking nearby mountains in the Highlands and visiting Oban. The breakfasts were a highlight, beautiful, delicious, authentic, and with several local ingredients. Multiple options for dietary restrictions. The castle has a lot of character, from the family portraits and taxidermy of the great hall to the skeleton keys for the rooms to the secret passages.

There was nothing to dislike.

The atmosphere of the place is amazing and the breakfast was really tasty. The staff was incredible and made us feel very welcome. From the little tour of the castle on arrival all the way to the unprompted offer to take a picture of us in front of the castle when we checked out. We had dinner at a nearby family restaurant followed by a lovely evening at the bar in the castle. We stayed in the Breadalbane room and the view out the window was out of this world (see pictures).
