Nun's Room

Extra large double room with half tester bed, shower room cut into the rock face of the medieval fortress wall. Dramatic colouring in black, red and cream. Gothic stained glass windows may have made this a chapel at one time in the Castle’s ancient history. Now, very different. Glorious views of the estate and the Doocots.
Half tester bed: 183 cm x 190 cm (6’ x 6’3”)

Lady D's Room

Extra large double room with original brass & iron, canopy bed made especially for Lady Dunbar in 1880. Shower room in the fortress wall. A spacious and quite feminine room. Views over the Doocots and over towards the beach at Reiss. The old stables and coach house can be well eyed from the arched window.
Half tester bed: 153 cm x 193 cm (5’ x 6’4”)

Jessie Long's Room

Small single shower. Jessie Long was originally Lady Louisa’s companion coming here at the age of 14 years old. Jessie sat every day doing her sewing at her window in this room and no one passing the Tower by the shore could escape her eagle eye. Jessie must have been formidable but the room is quite enchanting and rather feminine with a photo of Jessie herself. Tucked away in her drawers, are interesting newspaper cuttings. Delightful room with Queen size brass &b iron bed.
Large single bed: 122 cm x 183 cm (4’ x 6’)

Princess Royal Room

Large room with bathroom (bath & separate shower). Named after HMS Princess Royal, the ship of Kenneth Duff-Dunbar who was tragically killed in action in the First World War. His sea chest, pictures and many naval books make this a fascinating room to enjoy. From here, not only will you see Johnnie returning in Skifter, but you will get a bird’s eye view of the whole bay. A real seaman’s room.
2 single beds: 100cm x 2 m (3’3” x 6’6”) or linked to form large king size bed.

Totties Room

Cosy double room with bathroom with shower over the bath overlooking the village of Ackergill and the old lifeboat ramp is now obsolete. Warm colouring comes alive with the sunrise. Named after Tottie, Jessie Long’s faithful Pug Dog. She was very highly regarded which is proved by the many photographs taken of her. One photograph in particular framed on the wall is written “No friends like the old more precious than gold”!
2 single beds: 90 cm x 2 m (3’ x 6’6”) or linked to form large king size bed.

Poppy Room

Warm and cosy double room, shower. Demure yet colourful. Many poppy seed heads were discovered in the old housekeeper’s pot store, hence the name. Aspect towards the village of Ackergill’s lifeboat and the southerly seascape.
2 single beds: 90 cm x 2 m (3’ x 6’6”) or linked to form large double bed (6’ x 6’6”)
