Ever dreamed of staying in a castle?
At Melville Castle, you can do just that, with centuries of Scottish history woven into every room, corridor and corner.
Once a favoured retreat of Mary Queen of Scots, and later visited by King George IV and Queen Victoria, its regal past still lingers across the beautifully restored interiors and enchanting grounds.
Wander beneath ancient oak trees, dine on seasonal Scottish cuisine, then head to the Library Bar for a perfectly made Old Fashioned.
And when it’s time to unwind, retreat to one of 33 individually designed bedrooms and suites, each with its own character and many featuring sumptuous four-poster beds - the perfect place to settle in for the night.
Set in tranquil woodland just outside Edinburgh, Melville Castle is around 30 minutes from the city centre and Edinburgh Airport.
