Top Alston Hotel Reviews

Langley Castle Hotel

Langley Castle Hotel

8/10 Good
"We were very disappointed that our room was not actually in the castle - but 100yds away in an outbuilding. Infact only 9 of the rooms are actually in the castle. This was not clear at booking. The room was reasonably clean- but we had no Tv remote and the bathroom was looking pretty tired- needed redecorating. Evening meal was very nice and a tour of the castle itself was amazing."

Cumbria Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Fabulous hotel with good rooms. The breakfast is fabulous - amazing choice of breakfast items. We had two evening meals at the hotel and these were great and good value. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Large car park round the back of the hotel which even boasts some of the wall from the fort on Hadrian's wall. Also there is a section of the wall in the hotel reception. We will definitely stay here again when we next visit Carlisle."

10/10 Excellent
"I have visited over 170 countries. This castle is in my top two or three most wonderful places I have ever visited. The castle is amazing but the main reason i loved this place so much is because the staff were beyond perfect. They made our stay something I will never forget. The food and wine could not have been more amazing. The live piano played at dinner was priceless. I will fondly remember this place for the rest of my life."
