Mansfield Castle Hotel

Our stay was excellent, the location is stunning and our room was beautiful. It was a pleasure to chat with the staff and get a lot of useful tips what to see around.

Nice bar. Pleasant furnishings

Suprise that breakfast was totally self service in a hotel. A bit old fashioned furnishings in places

Very old and traditional Scottish building

Nothing

Nice place nice location

Reduced service for good

Leuke setting en heel vriendelijke eigenaar

Voor betaalde prijs had ontbijt ruimer gemogen (meer keuze). Toilet spoelde slecht door.

The room was dated but large The owner was a delight, larger than life character….

Arrived at Mansfield castle and asked why we couldn’t eat there as advertised. This operation is not being clear about how it operates…..it wasn’t what I expected Moved to Marangie House hotel…..twin hotel? Staffing issues were plain to see Food was expensive and not up to standard…even for pub grub. It turned out most guests had walked into town and eaten takeout

I like old buildings with character like the hotel. It’s old, but that is what I liked about it

Nothing

Very sweet

All good

Magnifique château. Propreté irréprochable. Personnel très sympathique. Nous recommandons .

Exterior of the building Young woman on reception was pleasant & helpful & offered us a room closer to to the entrance as we had several bags.

The restaurant and bar were closed, there was no mention of this at the time of booking and no reduction in cost. Hotel interior is tired and run down. Minimal staff available. We were offered an alternative hotel but only after we had complained and unpacked our luggage!

The initial photo of the facility. The exterior makes it inviting. The Morning staff were very pleasant.

The interior is run down. Arrival was cold and uncomfortable was advised to go to their sister hotel for drinks, dinner or a warm breakfast. We drove over for dinner but was not what one would expect especially when they have a bar but don’t know how to make drinks or prices so drank a beer and left to go find other arrangements. The room was very uncomfortable and bed was nothing but springs making for the worst night sleep and terrible pains. Even had to request towels. I definitely do not recommend this place for overnight stays.

Traditional character - good location, super welcoming & friendly staff

Noisy overnight from squeaky doors. Over the bath Shower took ages to navigate to a comfortable temperature. Needs an update, slightly shabby

Sehr schöne Liegenschaft, genügend Parkplätze, toller Eingang und das Zimmer war gross genug, die Betten sehr bequem. Das Frühstück ist in einem sehr schönen Saal mit viel Flair. Das Personal hat uns sehr freundlich empfangen und der Hauskater Lucky hat unseren Aufenthalt wunderbar abgerundet.

Wir hätten gerne im Castle zu Abend gegessen, die Küche hatte leider geschlossen, aber im anderen Hotel war es auch sehr schön.

Everything

Historisches Gebäude mit bewegter Geschichte, hat sich noch einen gewissen Charme erhalten. Das Haus ist ordentlich geführt, das Personal war freundlich, das kontinentale Frühstück reichhaltig. Diner gab es bei uns ausnahmsweise im Partnerhotel in der Stadt ca. 15 Gehminuten entfernt in ordentlicher Qualität und mit 10% Rabatt auf alles.

Keine Beschwerden.

The character of the building - slightly worn but charming. Excellent, helpful staff.

Gute Lage / super Personal (Transfer zur Glenmorangie Distillery)

Frühstück war durchschnittlich/ nichts Gekochtes, nichts Frisches

location was great , didn’t bother to have breakfast as only continental

the rooms are very dated

Castle setting

No kitchen facilities

Si quieres vivir la experiencia de hospedarte en un castillo escocés, pero sin gastarte un riñón, este es genial! Es muy cuco por dentro, las habitaciones grandes y bien equipadas, las de la planta de arriba son increíbles de bonitas en cuanto a decoración, ventanales grande y vistas al jardín. El desayuno no está nada mal, pero no esperes un gran buffet. Tiene un poco de todo, y más que suficiente para poder desayunar bien. El entorno es muy bonito y tranquilo y el pueblo es precioso y agradable para darse un paseo.

A szállás történelmi múltja és stilusa rendkivüli.

Beautiful hotel, very authentic, enjoyed very much :)

Von außen ein sehr schönes Hotel, sehr freundliches Personal.

Inventar etwas in die Jahre gekommen

Genügend Parkplätze und freundliches Personal

In die Jahre gekommenes Interieur

Nettes Personal und Frühstück war ok…

Stark renovierungsbedürftig…Zimmer hat modrig gerochen… Schimmel im Bad… Toilettenspülung und Heizung im Bad hat nicht funktioniert….dafür war der Preis zu hoch…

Sehr nette Mitarbeiter, zuvorkommend, tolles Ambiente

Wow! Was my first impression and I left with the same as Mansfield Castle was top class in every department and beautiful. The place is just dripping with character and the staff are most welcoming. The food was also excellent and so I would recommend it to anyone.

Leaving.

The hotel was dated, my room needed lots of maintenance. Bathroom unkempt.

The quiet location in urban environment. Interesting building . Size of room , it was huge! Lovely views.

Faded luxury, really needs a revamp . Tired and dated. Bit spooky!

chambre qui ne correspond pas du tout au standing de la maison, propre mais aucun charme

Mums buvo tinkama vieta. Malonūs darbuotojai registratūroje.Graži pilaitė, iš kurios galima padaryti perliuką. Tik...reikia daryti ;)

Pasijautėme , kaip atvažiavę pas promočiutę. Pilaitės viduje-sustojęs laikas. Jei bendros erdvės dar pusiau su bėda, tai koridoriai ir kambariai labai vargani. Vonia įskilusi, vonios ventiliatorius nevalytas, turbūt, nuo jo įdėjimo. Rankšluosčių džiovintuvas yra, bet jis išjungtas. Vonios kambaryje šalta ir drėgna. Kambarys tamsus, karnizas ir užuolaidos panašu, kad būtų pirktos sendaikčių parduotuvėje. Trumpai tariant,- vieta, iš kurios norisi kuo greičiau dingti.

Lieu atypique avec des couloirs infinis. Très bons lits.

Toilettes pas adapté à nos jours.

Morgemaden var OK og kun continental,- ingen varme retter. Beliggenheden fin og der var flere hyggelige fællesrum.

Hotellet er meget hyggelight men slidt og trænger til en istandsættelse. Sengene dårlige med gammeldags fjedre. Aftensmad kunne ikke altid købes og restauranten var lukket uden varsel en enkelt dag.

Very memorable place and stay for one night. Received a very warm welcome Loved the building and it’s history Had some dog friendly rooms and bar area also allowed dogs. Catered for our vegan daughter when we rang that morning to request meals all enjoyed our evening meal and the continental breakfast had a very good choice that included a variety of cold cooked meats. After reading the mixed reviews all I can say it exceeded our expectations and was a stand out place to stay for us in our much enjoyed 2 week trip around the highlands. Thank you

Bit Gutted the first room given hadn’t been cleaned so we had to be moved as cleaning staff had left by then. This room the then Norwegian King had stayed in was a stunning wow room however the Rose room next given was also very nice.

good and nice

Everything good until read introduction, Ms Fbowler shows up sometimes...

Breakfast was as expected. A cooked option would have been nice. The coffee from the machine was really nice.

Minor issue could leave a more professional impression, such as staff uniform, no bare belly's. That said the young staff were lovely and friendly.

Looked nice from the outside.. continental breakfast only but was nice. The receptionist was exceptional and very helpful.

Bed was really hard and the duvet wasn't wide enough even to fit over the bed let alone have any overhang.. just never slept and one of our parties room smelt badly of drains. Had to go in car to sister hotel to get an evening meal..(had a lovely meal though)

Prachtige entourage en erg vriendelijk personeel

Ontbijt mag gevarieerder.

Friendly host, very dog friendly- garden wing has an enclosed garden. Food was good.

Myself, my two young girls and Husband stayed in this beautiful castle at the weekend. The staff were all super lovely and helpful! A huge shout out to Caitlin who was so sweet and fun making our daughters feel very special throughout our stay! We were lucky enough to get chatting to John (the owner) and his lovely wife Esmeralda who were also really interesting with some great stories. Such an incredible experience! The chef was also superb and accommodating to our vegan diet.

Very basic

Beautiful looking building and grand staircase to 1st floor.

Drive is broken up, and you're greeted with a rotten car left in the car park that they cut the grass round. The hotel is very dated and in need of an update. There is no tv in the room. The toilet was not fastened to the wall, and the sink was cracked, and part had been glued back on the side. The bed creaked, and you had springs in your back all night. The pillows were as thick as the morning toast. I've never been so glad to leave a hotel in all my days.

The service was brilliant - everyone was friendly and helpful. Dinner was delicious and the whole atmosphere was very relaxed and comfortable - we were given a choice of where to eat in the hotel. The room was lovely and we would love to stay again.

Nothing

Great character very quiet. Easy parking

A bit dated. Furnishings etc need replacing. Windows in poor state

Hatten es noch am selben Tag gebucht und waren Froh überhaupt ein Zimmer zu finden. In einem 150 Jahre alten Schloss zu übernachten war sehr Spannend.

Das Frühstück war semi. Gut. Die Backwaren waren eher Kalt und Weich. Der Kaffee könnte auch besser sein. Das Badezimmer war sehr rustchig bzw ölig.

The Mansfield Castle Hotel is one of the traditionally furnished Scottish hotel with lots of tartan. Tain is quite a nice small town with some interesting bits and away from the A9. Service was good on checkin at the dining rooms and generally. We were upgraded to a turret suite as it was busy. Nicely eccentric with a huge bathroom. Dinner was fine, haddock good but Anne's lamb was tough. However some warnings No lift or porter No fridge No safe No hot breakfast (continental only) Also a bit expensive but then it was high season.

Restaurant wasn't open the day I arrived. They charge 15 pounds for a mediocre continental breakfast with no hot food.

Very helpful, good sized bedroom & comfortable Lovely breakfast

N/A

Although a little dated the hotel was very well looked after and exceptionally clean. The location was great, a short walk to town. Ample parking, nice grounds, impressive building and lovely traditional communal areas. The room was a little bit dated, but very clean and spacious with a large bed and everything we needed. Towels were lovely and fluffy, appreciated the heated towel rail. Shower had good pressure and hot water. Nice view of trees outside. We had breakfast at the sister hotel which was great.

We had a great stay, rooms could be more luxury with a few additions.

Lovely old world charm, spacious, convenient location. Breakfast included

Beautiful building, close to centre of Tain. Loved the 3 legged cat!

A little run down.

The room was very grand with plenty of vintage furniture. The views were amazing and the ensuite was fantastic.

Some of the facilities were a bit out dated. The bed although clearly vintage could do with its screws tightening or replacing. Didnt like the fact we were given kitchen timings for meals and when it came to breakfast there was only a continental option which considering what we paid for the stay felt unjust. We ended up going into town and getting a cooked breakfast for extra expense.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The room comfortable and we enjoyed the lounge and restaurant very much. We had a very nice stay.

Die Lage und der Anblick von außen.

Total runtergekommenes Hotel. Riecht muffig, überall Schäden. Unfreundliches Personal (außer die Frühstücksbedienung). Im Bad Wanne kaputt, keine Steckdosen. Toilettenspülung ging nicht. Überall Risse, Löcher, kaputte Fenster. Frühstücksbuffet lies auch eher zu wünschen übrig. Dafür ist der Preis von ca. 200,-€ echt frech! In der Nacht zum Sonntag war bis weit nach Mitternacht Krach. Als ob jemand die Einrichtung zerlegt. Antwort vom Personal: wir hätten ja nach einem anderen Zimmer fragen können.

Loved the location and staff, very helpful and attentive. They even stayed late so we could eat

Poor breakfast for cost of room. Poor value for money

Le château

Chambre datant des années 80

very good breakfasts, great view from the bedroom and dinning room, dramatic location close to Stirling

Staff are very friendly and helpful

Rooms are very tired

Medewerkers zeer vriendelijk en centrale ligging hotel. We hadden een ruime kamer. Upgrade.

Friendly atmosphere. Room was large, bed was nice and comfy (king size)

Overnachten in een echt kasteel, tsja....een droom, en het was ook net een sprookje. Heel vriendelijke ontvangst en we konden direct een bezoekje aan de nabij gelegen distilleerderij boeken, dank! Het diner en ontbijt in het kasteel zijn ook prima en er is een klassieke bar aanwezig. Leuke bediening met veel humor 🤗

Niets...op een paar kapotte lampen na.

great food

Beautiful old castle. Unique experience. Lovely furniture and art works. Friendly staff. Big room.

Bed was a little too firm. I suppose that comes with being an antique. A more modern mattress may have helped.

Schönes Haus

Etwas Begrünung und Blumen fehlen mir. Die Zimmer sind mittlerweile ,,abgewohnt" - alles in die Jahre gekommen. Da stimmt Preis - Leistung nicht mehr.

Atmosphere.

Gut ausgestattetes Hotel in einem ehrwürdigen Schloss. Sehr geräumige Zimmer und Bad mit einer Sitzecke im Erker. Das Frühstück war sehr üppig und es war eine große Auswahl vorhanden. Interessant war der Durchlauftoaster. Gemütliche Bar für den Abend vorhanden.

Der Wasserdruck im Bad hätte stärker sein können.

This was a really quirky property with lots of corridors, lovely decor and very friendly and helpful staff.

We missed a full Scottish breakfast but there was lots of choice from the continental offering.

L'aspect extérieur du château. Le petit déjeuner.

L'absence d'entretien de la chambre (séjour de 2 nuits). Salle de bain vieillote.

Staff were lovely throughout. Food in restaurant was really nice. Good location for walking to town and plenty of parking. A grand old building.

The decor and communal areas throughout appeared tired and yet building has huge potential.

Whisky.

The price.

einmal in einem Schloß zu schlafen war toll. Das Haupthaus hat ein tolles Flair und ist sehr gepflegt. Der Empfang war herzlich und auch sonst waren alle sehr hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend.

An impressive Victorian castle. Comfortable dog friendly bar area. Food was good. Staff really friendly and helpful.

Bit of a trek to Garden rooms up and down stairs round corridors. A ground floor entrance at the back would be a bonus. Decoration etc is quite tired.

Wonderful hotel with lots of charm and great service.

Breakfast was good.

The bed was hard, the shower was difficult because it was over the bath.

Très belle chambre.

Rien

The location, the room, and the history of it.

I just prefer a more protein forward, hot breakfast such as eggs, as I don't eat a lot of what was offered.

Historisches Ambiente, gutes Frühstück und guter Service

Viele Treppen zum Zimmer

The beautiful charm of the building and personalised service

The bed was uncomfortable

The staff were friendly. All went the extra mile to make a good experience. The building itself is lovely. The history of the castle is interesting and unique.

The current state of the property is showing signs of wear and could really benefit from some attention to restore its charm. The driveway, for instance, has several deep ruts that need to be filled in. The gardens are in desperate need of care - they could use some love and revitalization to restore their charm. The garden fountain is not operable which makes it look rather sad. The room decor is tired and dated. The bar area has an unusual beach-themed vibe does not quite align with the stately manor aesthetic of the rest of the property.

The young lady checking us in was charming and obviously having to multi task. The breakfast was continental due to kitchen problems but was more than adequate.

Dinner in the restaurant was very good but only a continental breakfast in the morning.

Beautiful place and staff were very friendly.

Dinner menu could have had more choice.
