What our clients say about this program:
"We booked our first trip to Ireland through Lynott in 1987 and were very pleased. I chose Lynott over others as your packages were a better value and much more affordable without sacrificing quality."

"It has been a few weeks since we returned from Scotland. Just wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful time and that the people were very friendly. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and thank you for your help. We plan on returning to Scotland in a few years."

Why use vouchers?
If you would like the ease of traveling without having to carry cash to pay for accommodation, you may wish to purchase our Accommodation Vouchers. You simply decide each evening where you will be heading the next day and phone ahead for a reservation. Should problems arise finding accommodation when in Scotland, contact our local office, or seek advice and assistance from your B&B host/hostess. She/he will assist in booking subsequent night/nights for the cost of a telephone call. We do not recommend purchasing B&B vouchers in Edinburgh. An inexpensive hotel provides a wider choice of accommodation, and would be more readily available. Click here for vouchers only, without a car.

 

Some Recommendations: Choose from castles in England, castles in Scotland, and castles in Wales.

Airth Castle - Stirling

The Airth Castle Hotel was built some time after 1488. The Hotel has a fully equipped health center, which includes a gymnasium, sauna, steam room, solarium and indoor swimming pool. The Radisson SAS Airth Castle & Hotel Stirlingshire lies within easy reach of the historic city of Stirling, and the Scottish capital city of Edinburgh

Borthwick Castle

Borthwick Castle =near Edinburgh

Only twelve miles from Edinburgh in a pastoral valley, this romantic castle stands on the summit of a knoll on the periphery of the romantic Borders immortalized by Sir Walter Scott. Borthwick Castle built in 1430 was once the refuge of Mary Queen of Scots and the Earl of Bothwell. All the bedchambers, tastefully furnished in period style. Guests will wonder at the miracle of the stone mason's art embodied in the spiral staircases, the fourteen foot thickness of the walls and the magnificent twin towers which stand 100 feet high from the dungeons to the battlements.

Dornoch Castle - Northern Highlands

All 18 bedrooms are tastefully decorated with a strong emphasis on comfort, tranquillity but still having that baronial home feel about it. There are Superior Castle Rooms, Castle Rooms and Garden Rooms and there are several rooms of individual character. Many rooms which overlook the formal walled gardens and have wonderful views of the Dornoch Firth and to the hills beyond.

DalhousieDalhousie Castle near Edinburgh

The castle has 29 stylishly appointed standard castle rooms, all with private bathrooms. All Castle rooms are non-smoking. Aqueous at Dalhousie offers an excellent range of Spa treatments.

Themed rooms at Dalhousie Castleare available.

Fernie Castle - Rates include dinner close to St. Andrews
Fernie Castle is in a superb location for anyone visiting Scotland. This 450 year old castle can offer all the character of the past with comforts today's visitor expects from a hotel with such high recommendations and awards. Situated in 17 acres of woodlands with it's own loch, there is ample parking space and places to stroll, or just relax. The aura of the castle is first glimpsed through the wooded drive as one approaches. Once inside, you will be greeted with a cheery open fire and a warm welcome. The Keep Bar and The Wallace Lounge are each directly off the reception hall.

Glenapp Castle -South West Scotland, was built in 1870 by the celebrated architect David Bryce for James Hunter, the Deputy Lord Lieutenant of Ayrshire. The castle and its lands were purchased in 1917 by James Lyle Mackay, subsequently the first Earl of Inchcape. Within the castle there are graceful lounges and elegant dining rooms as well as 17 individually furnished and decorated bedrooms and suites and seemingly endless oak panelled hallways and corridors. All are handsomely furnished with personally chosen antiques and fine oil paintings, and individually decorated to the highest standard in traditional style.

Inverlochy castle

Inverlochy Castle near Ft. William

Inverlochy Castle is one of the world's most luxurious castle hotels, and regularly plays host to a myriad of international stars and royalty. Its breathtaking charm has been enjoyed by the likes of Mel Gibson and Liam Neeson, and is even featured in the diaries of Queen Victoria who wrote "I never saw a lovelier or more romantic spot". Built in 1863, the castle is uniquely situated between two of Scotland's most famous landmarks - Ben Nevis and Loch Ness, and stands proudly within some of the most magnificent scenery in the Highlands. With just 17 palatial bedrooms, this "hidden gem" is wonderfully discreet, and is surrounded by 500 acres of fabulous landscaped gardens, leading down to its own private loch.

Kildrummy Castle near Aberdeen

Set in the heart of the Grampian Highlands, overlooking the ruins of the original 13th century castle, Kildrummy Castle Hotel offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the style and elegance of a bygone era. Kildrummy is a Scottish country house.

RoxburgheThe Roxburghe Hotel & Golf Course - Borders

Also known as Floors Castle., the hotel is one of Scotland's finest country house hotels, set in 500 acres of mature woodland and rolling parkland, beside the River Teviot near Kelso. The Roxburghe has a relaxed, home from home atmosphere, which our guests find particularly welcoming and has earned a reputation for really good Scottish food and outstanding service. The largest inhabited house in Scotland, Floors Castle is home to the Duke and Duchess of Roxburghe and their family. You can wander through spectacular State rooms with priceless European paintings.

Ruthin Castle northern Wales (the "Red Fort"), which dates from before 1277 and dominates the historic Welsh market town of Ruthin, close to Chester, Llangollen and within easy reach of the North Wales Coast, Snowdonia and picturesque Betws-y-Coed. The castle previously formed part of the Crown Estate until sold by Charles I in 1632 and sits in its ancient walled dry moat within acres of private landscaped gardens, parkland and woods alongside the River Clwyd.

Skibo Castle Northern Highlands

Throughout history Skibo has held a position of prominence. Its Celtic name translates as fairyland or place of peace. The checkered history of Skibo reflects the history of the highlands, and this provides much of Skibo's enchantment. This was the setting for Madonna's wedding. The castle forms the principle clubhouse, offering reception rooms with bedrooms and bathrooms of individual character

Stonefield Castle west coast of Scotland, north of Glasgow

Stonefield Castle Hotel is an outstanding example of Scottish baronial architecture. Built in 1837, the Castle stands high on the famous Kintyre peninsula commanding quite spectacular panoramic views over Loch Fyne. Guests can relax in the traditional elegance of wood paneled lounges with fine corniced ceilings, unwind on leisurely walks through the 60 acres of woodland grounds.

Thornbury Castle near Bath
Kings and queens have stayed here. Courtiers have flirted with ladies-in-waiting in the ancient yew-hedged gardens. Today, Thornbury Castle still resonates with history and is the only Tudor castle in England to be open as a hotel. However, step behind the heavy oak doors and you'll find a magnificent hotel with roaring fires, delicious modern cuisine and sumptuous bedchambers a truly special setting for an overnight stay, a weekend away or for more formal occasions. Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn once walked these rooms and grounds. Today, the 500 year-old castle-palace with its beautiful oriel windows, Tudor hall and historic parkland is yours for the duration of your stay. There has even been a vineyard within the castle walls for over 500 years, from which Thornbury Castle wine is still produced. Enjoy a regal night's sleep in the Duke's Bedchamber where King Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn slept or favour the Gloucester Bedchamber and wake up to a view of the oldest Tudor gardens in England - the Privy Garden and Goodly Garden.
