"Disappointed not to have a twin room that I specifically requested at time of booking as was travelling with my grown up son. Was told 100% full on arrival (nearly midnight) but that there was a sofa bed in room. Got in there and that wasn’t made up and didn’t look fit to take a 6ft man or be comfortable to sleep in with my bad back. Eventually got a call saying a twin could be cleaned & made available- why that wasn’t the case in the first place I don’t know. The carpet near the bathroom was damp underfoot-think the ill fitting shower door allowed water from a previous occupant to leak out."

"We stayed overnight and had dinner and breakfast on the morning of departure. Anyone with mobility issues needs to be careful about which room they book, of those in the castle I think that there are a couple on the first floor, accessed by a fairly grand staircase. The rest require a climb up a narrow and steep spiral staircase. The room we stayed was up said spiral staircase and was spacious and clean, well furnished and with a large en-suite. The lady on reception provided a great welcome and helped during our stay, special mention also goes to the lady who gave us and other guests a castle tour. In terms of dining we found a limited menu and an incapacity to vary it in the slightest. Also the staff were less than attentive."

"Lovely building, felt very welcoming. Large buffet breakfast was extensive. Some of the younger bar staff struggled with interaction, I thought. "
