NetherlandsThe history of the place, the building itself and superb location in the forest. Rustic harm of the property and all wooden encrustations and carving are simply amazing. Food was very good at the local restaurant plus a moderate selection of good whiskies . Cozy fireplace was lit during the evening. Great staff!

United StatesWonderful lodge in a remote location. The perfect start to a 16 day tour of Scotland. Hiking the Glen Clova area to Airlie tower, Castle Clova, and Glen Doll was the perfect way to adjust to the time change. Their restaurant staff are to notch.

If you can go on the private tour you should go.
If you can go on the private tour you should go. It is a must. It is so interesting and so unique. The grounds are absolutely gorgeous. You can just see the Royals as they tell the stories and show you the different rooms. It's just fabulous.Guest review byJanUnited States - 4.0

The entrance closes at 4 p.m., so if one has a longer distance to arrive there and only stay one night, you cannot walk the grounds, even if you don't want to visit the castle. This should be thought over. For us walking the grounds and taking pictures of the castle from a distance would have been absolutely sufficient.Guest review byRudi KuiperGermany - 6.0

If you have visited other Royal houses and expect the same then you will be disappointed. It is basically a walk through gardens designed to flower in August when visitors are not there and a trip into the ballroom. Beware - hardly any seating for not suitable for elderly or those who need to rest. Very small mews tearoom and currently temporary toilets, but new services are being built. Long walk back to exit with NO seating. Sadly I felt unwell and being unable to rest did not help. I know it's a Royal summer residence but we got the feeling they did not realy want visitors and they were not catered for adequately. Visit Windsor and Sandringham, much nicer!Guest review byLouiseUnited Kingdom - 10.0
As beautiful as I thought it would be.
As beautiful as I thought it would be. I was stunned by the massive girth of some of the trees and their incredible heights. The King is now planting many more trees and redoing the formal gardens. Since he has an incredible sense of design, the gardens will be spectacular in a few years. I loved the walks around the estate and all the informational signs explaining the history of buildings and traditions. The estate has done a marvelous job.Guest review bykathrynUnited States - 6.0
Grounds were disappointing and need tidying up.
Grounds were disappointing and need tidying up. Although the Royals use this for their late summer retreat, it is open for long periods to the paying public and activities to keep tidy should not be geared to the Royals arriving . However, the surrounding area is stunningGuest review bySteveUnited Kingdom
