THREE-NIGHT CHRISTMAS ESCAPE

Celebrate the most wonderful time of the year at a Scottish castle

 

 

Make your Christmas sparkle with three magical nights at the castle

Festive celebrations begin on Christmas Eve and continue all the way through to 27 December with our indulgent three-night package.

Whether you choose one of our gorgeous suites or a grand Classic Room, we promise to deliver a festive break full of joyous activities and exquisite food.

If you have any questions, please email reception@melvillecastle.com or call 0131 654 0088.

Book our 2025 Three-night Christmas package before 31 January 2025 and you'll receive a complimentary bottle of Prosecco to enjoy during your stay.

Pack your pup, too!

Dogs can enjoy a festive stay with you too, at a cost of £20.00 per pooch per night (up to two well-behaved dogs in selected rooms). Dog stays must be pre-booked. Please call us on 031 654 0088 to request a dog-friendly room when you make your booking. Unfortunately, if you arrive having packed a pup without booking, we may not be able to accommodate you.

All pups will receive a Hound Bag tote filled with useful accessories for their stay, including a tennis ball, poo bags, dog treats and a walking map featuring routes local to the hotel.
