This 4⭐️ castle stay in Edinburgh has a haunted tale 👻

Pirates, this 13th century fortress looks like one for the books. Surrounded by acres of woodland on the banks of River Esk, with an award-winning fine dining restaurants and lush spa facilities.

This hotel happens to be one of Edinburgh's most haunted places. It's home to the ghost of the lovelorn Lady Catherine, who was imprisoned in the castle tower in 1695 after being discovered with a stable hand, and died at the early age of 16.

It's said that her mist-like apparition has been caught on camera, and some people have even claimed to have caught a glimpse of her waving to onlookers as she gazed down from the turrets.

We've found great rates from £125 per night.

We might be Pirates, but we’re an honest bunch. We check all our deals when we review them to make sure everything is available. Here’s the catch: with deals this hot, things change quickly: flight prices fluctuate, hotel rooms sell out, currencies yo-yo. Mainly, demand for the best deals means the lowest prices don’t last long. But, if you’ve missed out this time, don’t worry: we’re working on more great offers.
