Loved the location, the history, the food and the staff. The only thing I would fix is cobwebs and dust in harder to reach picture frames and such. And I would have loved using the spiral staircases (not for use by guests unless there is an emergency). Loved this place and hope to go back some day,

Easy 20 minute walk from station. Beautiful property..grounds very well maintained. We were upgraded to a suite ..simply stunning . Staff were friendly . Only negative restaurant was underwhelming..a little disappointing tables very close to others was expecting something more medieval.. Food was average . Scone in the library lovely but it was served cold ! I would definitely recommend you you stay a night a l9cely experience

A very unique place to stay. The staff were so friendly and helpful, I couldn’t praise them enough, especially the breakfast staff and the Library bar staff. They were always smiling and happy to chat. We stayed in a courtyard superior room that was very big with a very large and comfortable bed. We were on the ground floor and were able to park our car by the room each day. The stairs and floor in the bedroom above us were very creaky but it’s to be expected with the age of the property. Breakfast had lots of choices and was very enjoyable. We ate in the Library Bar most evenings and the food was amazing! The outdoor terrace was a lovely place to sit in the evenings. The castle itself was stunning with lots of original features. I would highly recommend it and hope to visit again.

I was in room 42 for one night on my way to a job in the morning, so it was a cheaper option being a single room. But wow was it noisy. Anyone going upstairs carrying cases or bags or talking etc could be heard. It was like being a hobbit living under a house of ill reputation. The funny part was breakfast as it was absolutely gorgeous, but finding the place was like going to the toilets of a well known pub chain. I think they were actually in a different town. .

We had a good stay for 1 night. Due to the hot weather the room was rather stuffy. The fan provided did help. The dinner was excellent as was the breakfast with plenty of choice. Good value for the price paid.

Great building. Lovely room. Eat in the restaurant and the steak was really over cooked. I really should have sent it back. We had breakfast the following day - full English. The fried egg was hard and the field mushroom was very over-done

Rooms size was fine, bit creaky all round, when guests went upstairs it was very noisy, you could also hear everything through the walls. Bathroom needed a good cleaning, lots of dust around the pipes and radiators, breakfast was great, food in bar not so good, this put us off trying out the restaurant.

Absolutely magical place to stay! The rooms were immaculate, beds very comfy, and the staff wonderful! The floor we stayed on was accessible by a small spiral staircase; large enough to get suitcases up, but perhaps not the most accessible so bear that in mind when booking. Would highly recommend taking time to walk the grounds and throughout the castle during your stay!

Beautiful grounds and castle. Room lovely but small. But we only stayed one night. Staff absolutely great. Not in your face but there if you needed anything and nothing too much trouble. A great stay all round. Definitely recommend to friends and family.

Stayed here a few times now but sadly it was as tarnished by the breakfast staff who took my order and 30 minutes later it hadn’t arrived. I asked where it was and they proceeded to take my order again. I didn’t have time to wait for it so I had to leave. They gave me a refund for my breakfast which was fine.
