Newark Castle Tours

Newark Castle is bursting with intrigue and history. Let your mind run wild about the events that happened behind its doors as you stroll around the grounds.

This fortified complex is on the to-do lists of many visitors to Greenock. But Newark Castle isn't the area's only highlight. Custom House, Lunderston Bay, and Ayrshire Coastal Path Finish are some other worthwhile attractions close by.

Lovely stay, room was great and bed was comfy. Staff were so lovely. Pool was good, although could do with a clean under the pool chairs. Breakfast was great!

While staff and restaurant were on par with a five star hotel (the staff being especially helpful and very personable), our room - the Villa Maria - was underwhelming. The bathroom was too dim and bathtub had some mold, the bedroom too hot, and the carpeting throughout a bit dingy. We saw they were doing updates in one of the sections of the hotel so hopefully this will include the room we stayed in.
