On arrival the receptionist was welcoming and friendly and we enjoyed returning to a four poster room in the castle. Staff service throughout the hotel - room, bar, dining room was excellent. The hotel was beautifully decorated for the Christmas season and it was warm and clean. Our friends in a courtyard room were very happy with their experience. We enjoyed a fabulous dinner from the long menu and the following morning the breakfast choices were excellent. We hope to return. ##### Jennifer Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lizzie 19 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Amazing place Amazing hotel, great breakfast and super friendly staff.
