This is a “proper” castle - built 900 years ago. We ate at one of the restaurants and had a lovely meal. Gardens have several walks including a long walk through local woods which we enjoyed. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5eabd24f-ec9b-4cf4-9fa8-c7e7a5923586-1753643673460.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Craig Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Douglas Jul 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was a castle but felt very comfortable.

An event of a place. Done really nicely. Great food and service - Molly was a star. My only complaint is a stuffy bedroom as no opening windows or no aircon. Was 27C there. Still enjoyed the stay 👍 ##### Dewi Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah Apr 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Amazing service from start to finish ##### Sarah Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laurie Apr 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities How fun to stay in a castle! This one is accessible but still luxurious. We didn't have time to take advantage of the gorgeous golf course or spa services, but the fine dining restaurant for dinner, breakfast and grounds were everything we were hoping for and more. Would highly recommend and hope to go back! ##### Laurie Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chelsea May 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort This place was absolutely amazing!!!
