Excellent stay in a beautifully restored medieval castle with great service and unique period features.
Our stay in Castle Levan was at the very end of our trip around Scotland - one night in the Laird's chamber. The room itself was stunning, occupying an entire floor of the main tower with 12 feet high beamed ceilings, a seperate sofa/armchair suite, an alcove dressing table with large mirror, and a private "privy" (which, looking at its location, is probably where the original one would have sat).
The private bathroom goes on to occupy an entire floor of the attached tower. The bathroom was in excellent condition with a free standing, roll topped bath and double (actually probably quadruple) shower, and of course "his and hers" private sinks.
Breakfast was wide ranging and absolutely delicious, with locally sourced haggis, sausages, black pudding and bacon. There are ample outside areas in which to spend your leisure time, including large conservatory and waterfall.
Finally, the service was welcoming and attentive - following a traffic accident we were needed to check in after the end of check in times. This was not a problem at all,with the host ready to meet us and still give us a tour around the castle.
This is not one of your Victorian psuedo castle hotels. It is an authentic, feature filled medieval castle complete with arrow slits and battlements. A great place for couples (highly romantic) and families (private grounds/battlements!) alike.
