Hawkins party Booked through Travel Chapter The North Lodge March 2024
“Such a warm and cosy cottage, we found it well equipped and so peaceful. We loved the ‘dog box’ with treats, bowls etc which made us feel that our dog was as welcome as we were. Elisabetta responded promptly to any requests and was friendly and supportive, throughout our stay.”
Reddington party Booked through Travel Chapter The North Lodge March 2024
“The cottage is situated on the edge of a woodland in the Craigston Castle estate. The cottage was very clean on arrival and well presented. It had everything you need for a self catering holiday including dishwasher and tumble dryer. The garden is spacious and fully enclosed so perfect for our dog. There are also a number of walks in the woodlands which start at the cottage so great for the dog again. Elisabetta was a perfect host and treated us to a tour of the castle. Would defo recommend.”
Scott Lipinski Fashion Council Germany Booked direct Craigston Castle November 2023
We stayed in this beautiful castle in May 2023. We are still delighted. The communication with Elisabetta was wonderful and she was very helpful at all times. The castle and surrounding area is simply breathtaking, not to mention the castle itself. It is simply stunning and we felt very honoured to call it ours for 4 nights.
Once again, thank you so much, dear Elisabetta, we will be back soon! All our best, Scott and Team FCG
Kurtis Orcutt Booked direct Craigston Castle October 2023
I have been here many times, mostly when younger, and this is my Family, Clan Castle. The Urquhart family goes way back into ancient Clan times and the Urquhart Clan always looked at this place, since 1607, as a place of the family since John Urquhart built it starting in 1604. I started staying here, a few years ago and this year, October 2023, brought 5 couples with me for a stay. The grounds are always wonderful and William has created a wonderful place for people to stay! Elisabetta is a terrific Host and Manager and the Family is very fortunate to have her. The location to all of the favorite places along the coast are close. Banff, Nairn, Gardenstown, Fraserburgh and Aberdeen are all very close. Turriff is a very lovely town and just a few miles away. Great Distilleries are nearby also, including my favorite, Glendronach. I highly recommend as a classic Castle stay for your next adventure in Aberdeenshire!!
