Crossbasket Castle, Hotel & Restaurant, an SLH Hotel

An absolutely stunning hotel in magnificent grounds yet only 10 minutes away from the main motorway artery for Scotland. The staff are friendly and welcoming and very professional, nothing is too much trouble. The furnishings ooze quality and refinement. Sadly we were only there for one night and didn’t have the opportunity to sample dinner but did squeeze in half a dozen oysters at lunchtime and they were delicious. Breakfast was amazing with fruit baskets, pastries and full breakfast all available. I cannot recommend this place highly enough and I can’t wait to go back.

I recently attended the Wellness Day at Crossbaskets Castle hosted by Clare and Stuart, and I can highly recommend it. Firstly, the luxurious and tranquil setting is perfect for a day of relaxation, with high quality food, refreshments and facilities. |Clare and Stuart were so friendly and welcoming, and immediately put everyone at ease. The yoga, journaling and breathing practices were thoroughly explained and I enjoyed learning a bit about the science behind some of the techniques we were using throughout the day. There was an emphasis on the session providing tools for us to take away to use at home for our own self care practices. This made the whole experience feel like an investment and learning as opposed to purely a pamper day. |If you are looking for a day of deep relaxation and reflection, and to learn skills that can help you to manage the stresses of our busy lives, I would highly recommend Clare and Stuart's Wellness Day.

The wellness experience was a wonderful experience delivered by Clare and Stuart who were both very kind and supportive. The day offered many different types of approaches to personal wellbeing. The programme was varied and so enjoyable with many take away approaches for participants to include in personal regimes. The day included; taster sessions on Journaling, specialist breathing techniques delivering benefits such as relaxation to reducing stress and inflammation. The leads made every one feel included and were very encouraging to all participants. The location at Crossbaskets is stunning, tranquil, and an ideal setting for such an event. The variation, quality of the food and the staff skills and expertise were exemplar with communication excellent with no request too much. This added so much to the luxury of the customer experience. Only one aspect is worthy of an area for improvement and that would be the temperature in the room at the outset. This resulted in a cool start to the day. This did not detract from the overall experience.

We loved our stay at this charming castle! Our rooms were big and comfy and we could hear the waterfall from the adjacent stream lying in bed at night. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful. Breakfast each morning was incredible with many options and top quality goods. Our only disappointment was dinner at Trocadaros. It was overpriced and underwhelming. The “entertainment”that we paid £10 each for was pretty bad. Would definitely stay here again!

We really enjoyed our stay at Crossbasket Castle! My fiancé and I stayed in a beautiful spacious room in the castle. The castle is decorated with mostly Victorian era paintings and other historical artifacts which was very cool to see. There is another building on the site, which is where the restaurant, breakfast, and other hotel rooms are. If you want to stay in the castle, make sure you are booking a room in the castle and not the other building! Dinner and breakfast were both delicious, and the live music/dancing at the restaurant made the experience even more enjoyable! Overall we had a lovely stay and would definitely come again!

We came along to the wellness day with Stuart & Claire! What a fabulous day we had, our hosts were so warm and welcoming. The day was set out so well we got to try various styles of yoga, introduced to breathwork and everything was explained amazingly. |Lunch was also amazing. |What a fantastic experience in such stunning surroundings. Can’t wait for the next one.

Amazing experience at the wellness day . Stuart and Clare were wonderful instructors. Lots of knowledge. |Enjoyed especially the nim yoga and the breathing exercises. Slept better than I have in years after the day. |Will continue with the sound baths daily. |Thank you

Stayed for two nights a couple of weeks ago. The hotel is amazing our suite was huge and so well laid out with a very large and comfortable bed. The Trocadero restaurant is great food and service exemplary. More importantly they have live jazz and it makes for a great evening to music and wonderful food. No hesitation in recommending the Cross Basket
