Rooms were excellent. Absolutely spotless. Food outstanding. Dinner and Breakfast were fabulous. Plenty choice, quick to serve and lovely and warm. Staff were amazing. Very tentative. Gentlemen serving breakfast was lovely. Only downside is that after dinner there is no lounge to chill and have a wine/beer. Had to sit in the Bistro which is perfect for eating but not for chilling. Sad seeing that it's such a beautiful building.

This was our first visit to Kilconquhar Castle Estate and it was a lovely break away. Bedroom (17) was clean, modern and spacious. Staff at breakfast time, afternoon and evening were very efficient and friendly, nothing too much trouble. We used the swimming pool and sauna which were super. Our only criticism was the bed was too small (kingsize would have been more comfortable) and the duvet too heavy. We were also unable to open the window (keep it open overnight) for some reason. We will definitely return.

Check in was easy. The staff was very nice. Main reception said we could get something to eat at the restaurant at 11:30 AM - not true. They did not open for lunch until noon. The rooms were spacious. There was a loud party in the private dining / party area. Luckily they got more quiet around 10 PM. Breakfast was good.

Lovely stay at kilconquhar castle estate, great location for exploring the east neuk of fife with great facilities such as tennis, swimming, badminton etc. Pitty sauna wasn't in separate changing rooms but didnt stop us using it. All staff friendly and pleasant to deal with. Good banter with the bar & kitchen staff. Great Tuesday steak night offer & great choice for breakfast! Would recommend.

The property has a stunning back drop and lovely driving up the long sweeping drive. Rooms were nice, especially my club room. The swimming pool and sauna was a nice addition and breakfast good which was included. You could choose from the menu. The server at breakfast was a lovely, funny chap. Only downside really was the bistro. We just had soup as it finished serving at 8pm and we didn't arrive til 6:30pm and wanted to have a swim. Food was nice. It would have been nice to have a lounge area as a bar as it a bit sterile in the bistro and you don't really want to be sat at a dining table just for drinks. Surely you could have a small lounge area served by the bistro bar in such a large place.
