The room is good, with a view at the door, which is the characteristic of the castle hotel. The service is good, the room is clean, and the space is large. The interior decoration of the room is very classic and very atmospheric.

Very unique castle with excellent staff and dining options. The grounds are beautiful especially with Sammy the stallion and lovely the pony in the back. Definitely would stay again.

Woke up in the morning to there have been a leak from the ceiling in the bathroom. I fell in the water and really hurt my leg. Once getting to my feet I noticed a layer of mould in the corner of the bathroom where this leak must have been happening for some time. Was offered £40 off my bill which looking back now is pretty pathetic as my leg has hurt all day and began to bruise. Would not stay again. The restaurant is overpriced. I’ve enclosed a picture of the food, the burger was £26.50. It was dry and the bun was over cooked and crumbly. Would expect a lot more for a £60plus food bill for one person. Ordered the apple crumble to be told there wasn’t any custard and had to have cold double cream on it.

Very excited to stay in a castle for the very first time! The room was nice, but the bed wasn't very comfortable. Very clean, and dinner was nice. Didn't have that grand castle feel we were hoping for, but it was quiet, and a nice place to stay for the price.

This property far exceeded our expectations! The charm and elegance of what was a real castle, with beautiful furniture and presentation. It is a little off the beaten path, although not out of the way. Well maintained grounds that could pass for how things were when the castle was built. Excellent and highly recommended!

This castle is beautiful inside and out. I love how the rooms are decorated in a medieval theme. The breakfast was delicious and filling. The staff was attentive and helpful. The grounds were huge and also intimate. We loved this wonderful place and highly recommend it.
