The castle and grounds were lovely. The castle rooms are getting dated. Breakfast in the castle was very sub-standard but the other restaurant on the property served a fantastic dinner.

Castle stay. Worth it.
Come on, it was stay in a castle! Loved it. Though I arrived late, I loved grabbing a drink and hanging out by the fire in the reception area and walking the grounds at night. The bed was so comfortable and waking up to the amazing breakfast did the trick of refreshing me after a long drive the day before.

Beautiful location and grounds. The staff were very polite and helpful. Had Dinner and breakfast. Both had great service and food good. The Spa was extra treat but you only get 1 hour which i feel you could do with extra time. Would definitely recommend at would go back again.

The grounds is beautiful, and the room is very nice. However, the front desk is disinterested and unhelpful with any information. In both the day I checked in and the day I checked out, the front desk staff offered no help and information, and I had to return multiple times to get the basic important information about the property and my stay. I expect a lot more at the rates paid for one of the most expensive rooms on the property.

The accommodation and staff are excellent, courteous, and friendly. My only dissatisfaction was the breakfast, served at the table cold, and the staff immediately replaced it with slightly warmer servings, but unfortunately, the only quality item was the fried egg, all the other ingredients were sub-standard. Not the good last memory to take away from a superb stay.

Castle Stay Was a Dream Come True!
What an experience! Staying in this gorgeous, ancient castle was a dream come true. Everything about it was magical! From the cozy room in the castle, delicious meal in the Hermione Cafe and drinks afterward in the beautifully decorated lounge area, our experience was unforgettable!

I recently stayed at this hotel, and it was truly unforgettable! I got engaged in their beautiful rose garden, which was an absolutely magical setting. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay special—so warm, welcoming, and attentive. We enjoyed a delightful lunch at the golf club, where the menu options were diverse and delicious. The dinner offerings were equally phenomenal, with every dish prepared to perfection. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone seeking a perfect getaway, whether for a special occasion or simply to relax. We can’t wait to return!
