A little slice of heaven at Stobo Castle 🏰💙
I took a much-needed break from the chaos of mum life and spent the night at Scotland’s only destination spa — and honestly, it was everything I didn’t know I needed.
Nestled in the peaceful Scottish Borders, is the perfect luxury escape. The spa facilities are incredible: a 25m ozone-treated pool (so gentle on the skin), steam rooms, saunas, outdoor hot tubs overlooking the hills, a hydrospa with massage jets, and even a mud room for a fun, skin-softening treat. You can easily spend the whole day hopping between pure relaxation and scenic views.
Between the calming atmosphere, five-star service, and delicious, nourishing meals, I felt completely looked after from start to finish. Everything is designed to help you unwind — even the quiet lounges and warm, fluffy robes feel like a hug.
As a mum, it’s easy to put your own needs last… but this little escape reminded me just how important it is to refill your own cup too 💫
100% recommend for anyone needing a proper reset — with no snack requests in sight 😅 invited

We are absolutely delighted to share that Stobo Castle Health Spa has won not one, not two, but THREE titles at The National Family Business Awards, hosted by Family Business United.
🏆 Scottish Family Business of the Year 2025
🏆 Scotland’s People’s Choice Family Business of the Year 2025
🏆 National People’s Choice Family Business of the Year 2025
Last night, I had the honour of accepting these awards with my family at the ceremony in Kensington, London - a truly unforgettable evening for us all.
As I led our involvement, I felt it was important to share the story behind our family business - one shaped by passion, vision, and decades of family dedication. To receive national recognition is something we will always treasure.
The Stobo Castle journey began in 1975, when my Grandparents and my Dad took a leap of faith and purchased a crumbling, derelict building - with dry rot and woodworm, nestled in the beautiful Scottish Borders. Through extraordinary determination and vision, they began restoring what would become a pioneering destination spa in the world of wellness.
I want to pay heartfelt tribute to our late Grandmother, Gaynor Winyard - her passion, creativity, and vision turned a bold dream into reality. To have that legacy honoured in this way is a testament to her.
I also want to recognise my Dad, Stephen Winyard MBE. Since the passing of his parents in 2000, he - alongside my Mum, Mandy Winyard - has carried their dream forward with strength, humility, and unwavering commitment. Together, they’ve brought her vision to life, building Scotland’s only destination spa into an iconic sanctuary of wellness and one of the most respected spas in the UK. Being able to share this moment with my parents and sister made it all the more special last night.
We want to extend our deepest thanks to our exceptional So Stobo team. Your dedication, professionalism, and pride in your work bring the Stobo experience to life every single day. And to our loyal guests and supporters - your trust, encouragement, and love for what we do are what drive us forward.
These awards means the world to us - not just as recognition of how far we’ve come, but as a proud celebration of our Scottish roots. We are excited and optimistic for everything the future holds.
As Scotland’s only destination spa, we look forward to continuing our journey - with future spa developments and innovations - as we evolve and grow our iconic family business.
With heartfelt thanks,
Mitchell Winyard
Director (on behalf of the Winyard Family)
