Under New Management

/in /by

In March 2012 the Hay family, owners of Melville Castle, took back control of the business from Aurora Hotels, to once again become a family run business. Throughout the spring and summer months of 2012 the castle has been undergoing extensive renovation. We look forward to opening at the beginning of 2013.
