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.

Darren, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A beautiful quirky hotel.
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
John, 3-night trip

The best hotel stay we have ever had
This was one of the nest hotel stays we have had. The room was very spacious and the best was extremely comfortable. The food at the restaurant was out of this world. We are looking forward to staying there again very soon. We recommend the Richard II room. The only drawback is we couldnt see the TV from the bed.

Loved it
Fantastic building full of character and history. Courtyard rooms are lovely but not overly great on soundproofing as we could hear the neighbours too easily, also, the blind in the bathroom was an awful fit to the window but overall a brilliant experience that I would do again in heartbeat. My wife and I played hide and seek in all the nooks and crannies of the castle and we’re both in our fifties so a fab place

A treat that you will want to repeat.
A very interesting castle that houses beautifully prepared rooms, wonderful surroundings, excellent good and wonderful service. A treat that everyone with any sense or enjoyment of history will eat up. Very cheap and comfortable rooms with excellent facilities and a nice and quiet location. The Christmas decorations were also top notch.

Castle Suite is amazing, this room is so comfy and the castle so genuine, normally I walk around the historic castles but to call one home for a night is brilliant.

A hidden gem
Brilliant friendly and helpful staff and the wonderfully atmospheric setting of a genuine castle made for a memorable and enjoyable stay.
John, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a lovely hotel with a wealth of history and about the only fault I can find with it is the relatively expensive but poor quality breakfast.
