About The Witchery by the Castle

The most theatrical place to sleep in Scotland — nine dramatically decorated suites in a 16th-century merchant's house at the top of the Royal Mile, draped in antique tapestries, oak paneling, and gothic candlelight. The restaurant below is one of Edinburgh's most celebrated dining rooms.
