Last visit was our sixth visit to stonefield castle, we love this place because the dogs are so welcome and all the staff over the years have been great, we decided to go with the principle rooms this time as treat for family, nice rooms, well over priced for what you get, but that is the hotels story over the years its needed huge investment, rather than do that they have taken away the snooker room so its a bedroom, everywhere you go you see it still needs a huge investment, i guess its shareholders want their profit rather than spend to save a great building and gardens. However we will be back, stick to cheapest rooms we can get and will enjoy the wonderful food, accept the WiFi crashes the TV loses signal and just enjoy the wonderful tired old hotel and gardens with stunning views. If you rate the hotel as a 3 star then you wont be disappointed
