Lanarch Castle was an amazing experience although we were in the Goldrush Room with a wagon for a bed. Under normal circumstances this would have been quite a novelty but was difficult with a fractured arm (staff did try to move us but didn't have another room). Banquet dinner in the castle was wonderful and the breakfasts were great.

Disappointed that you are lead to believe that you are staying in the castle and you are not. Very over priced rooms. Too many rules that spoils the experience. The dinner was ok but the rules on ordering the meal by 5:00 pm and the rushed manner in which we were exited out of the castle by 10:00 pm after eating and the narrated history of the castle between courses was boring, rushed and not necessary for all to hear. Could be better (far better) would not recommend this to any other people. Dinner experience over priced and not worth the money. Overall experience ridiculously over priced and disappointing. Glad we did not stay an extra night as originally planned

An excellent accommodation location with friendly efficient staff. Staying in a suite and having dinner at Larnach Castle was a really enjoyable and fun experience.

Premium room (Queen Victoria). Fun venue- must join in one Banquet Evening- great banter. Value fair as it includes entrance to “castle” and grounds. Good breakfasts. Don’t expect your room to be in the actual castle though- more motel style with added character in lodge or even the stables.
