Lumley Castle Hotel

Great service in library bar

Fantastic place. Loads of history, but with all modern convenience and comfort. A wee gem that we will definitely visit again

Room was comfy and spacious, good was excellent and the location suited us perfectly. Was very surprised at how sensible the price was compared to other far less enticing venues in the area!

Property is ready for a lick of paint, staff were very good.

Didn't enjoy our stay room very cold food expensive

The unique experience of staying in a castle

Excellent

This was a last minute stay needing somewhere in the area. Absolutely wonderful and completely unexpected.

Lovely 😍 Decorated...unique

Brilliant stay

This was booked for Valentines for my wife and I. Lovely castle and surroundings. Staff really friendly and the room was lovely and comfortable. Bed was extremely comfortable! Food was excellent and breakfast is tremendous!!

History, like the old dimly lit corridors leading to breakfast room, except couldn’t see what you were eating properly where we were put, some of the tables l noticed were in a better position with better lighting, even though we were at the breakfast earlier than some we were put in the same area, l did ask to sit somewhere with more light but they seem to sit other people in the better lit areas, twice l noticed certain residents got priority,even though we didn’t pay for cheap accommodation and we were at the breakfast room first and the tables didn’t have a reserved sign so l was a bit annoyed and l did happen to come across some foreign object in my food as l couldn’t see properly, don’t know where it came from as it was like a piece of fibre as l was eating only on the second morning this happened to which put me off, also the Courtyard State room we were in No 29 was lovely but there was a lot of noise coming from the room next to us all through most of the night , didn’t get much sleep,glad l was only there for two nights as l would of complained, next time l think l would stay in the Castle rooms as l think they are more soundproof.

Excellent hotel. Staff really friendly and accommodating. Can't do enough for you. Really nice staying in a castle. The castle and surroundings are amazing. The food was amazing, although quite limited and quite expensive.

I am from the US, but I found this place after discovering through Ancestry research that the Lumley family is in my family tree, and I found this castle in searching them and I wanted to see it, so we came. Lumley Castle is a unique and amazing gem. There is so much history. The reception desk sells a book about the history, which is definitely worth purchasing. We attended Burns Nights in Baron's Hall, and the event was wonderful, with great food and fun dancing afterwards. The event spaces are just beautifully maintained. Our Castle Classic room was small but beautiful. The tub was perfect and we took luxurious soaks. The little vanity area was a very nice touch. We thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast each day and we stayed for dinner one night as well. Afternoon tea on Saturday was fairly priced and the scones and cakes were delicious. The library bar has such a perfect vibe. I loved reading by the fire with a drink. We could not have had a better stay. Also, even though it is in the middle of nowhere, you can actually still get Uber Eats from the cities nearby. It felt a little odd to be texting my uber driver, I will meet you by the entrance to the castle, but alas, it worked out just fine.

Do not be put off by the fact I gave it 4 stars for comfort - part of its charm is nothing is straight in the place. The windows, doors and often the floors are wonky. But is really is a fantastic place to stay. Where else are you going to walk through a wardrobe to your bathroom. Lovely None of the pics I uploaded do it justice

Very comfortable rooms and beds. Slept well. The serving staff at breakfast were a bit unprofessional discussing some internal hotel politics loudly which was a shame.

Held together with steel tie bars....good job. Warm rooms, facilities excellent. Friendly staff.
