Frequently Asked Questions

HOW DO I GET TO BIRKHILL CASTLE?

 

Birkhill is located an hour transfer from Edinburgh International Airport or 30 mins drive from Dundee Airport.

The nearest railway station is Leuchars, which has regular LNER services from London Kings Cross. The Caledonian Sleeper also stops here.

 

WHAT SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE AT THE CASTLE?

 

At Birkhill we offer several packages to choose from.

If you would prefer a self-catered stay then we are more than happy to provide recommendations for activities and catering which you can then organise yourself.

If you are looking to sit back and relax, we can offer you a fully serviced and catered package with staff included.

 
HOW FAR AHEAD ARE BOOKINGS REQUIRED?

 

We would recommend you book as soon as you have your dates confirmed so as not to miss out to another booking. Last minute bookings are subject to availability.

 
CAN YOU ARRANGE AN ITINERARY?

 

As part of our serviced package, we can arrange many different activities for you and your guests to take part in on and off the property.

These include but are not limited to: golfing, clay pigeon shoots, deer stalking, fishing,  distillery tastings and tours, murder mystery nights and more.

 
I HAVE TO WORK DURING MY STAY, IS THIS POSSIBLE?

 

The castle has a reliable fibre wifi throughout the castle and bedrooms.

There are plenty of relaxing and quiet spots throughout the castle with beautiful views out onto the Tay.

 
ARE DOGS ALLOWED?

 

We are happy to view this depending on the dog so please ask us about this.

Also, bear in mind that we are on an estate with horses, chickens and wild animals so we insist dog owners respect this and keep them under control at all times. There are also frequent gun shots during the winter months on neighbouring estates.

 
DO YOU HAVE AN EV CHARGER?

 

Unfortunately not, but there are several within a few minutes drive of the castle including Gauldry, Newport-on-Tay and Newburgh.

Come, and be welcome.
