Allendale Castle Hotels

"Appleby Castle is a special destination, steeped in history that you can experience first hand. Staff care deeply about the castle and we thoroughly enjoyed the piano playing during the meal and the history talk after. Having read some of the other reviews, we can’t say we experienced any of the negatives and thought Peter, Sally (and chef!) did a great job it being just them running the castle."

"The staff are excellent, the grounds are magical and the buildings are awe inspiring and stately. Well worth staying here. Superb food."

"Great facilities included breakfast was great could also upgrade to things like eggs Benedict, spa was clean and facilities good, hardly any children which was great for us too "

"Had a lovely stay in this lovely old building. I only dealt with one member of staff, but she was very nice and friendly and made us feel welcome. Breakfast is also very nice. Heating wasn’t working but we were supplied with a portable heater to make the room nice and cozy. Thoroughly enjoyed the stay "

"Very good"

"Such a beautiful hotel in an amazing location. Felt like luxury after a hard day hiking. Superbly helpful staff and a very comfortable room."

"breakfast only served between 8 & 9, no early option"

"Great stay, very pleasant staff, excellent breakfast"

"Nice hotel with friendly staff Busy pub & restaurant- great breakfast included in the cost of the stay Beautiful village with lots of history Lots of dogs staying & visiting with diners No lift (elevator) but they carried my bags up the stairs for me so that wasn't an issue They give you a key to the outer door so if you're out late (like I was for a wedding in a nearby location), you just hold a key fob to the door & you have 24 hour access They kept my bags free of charge so I could stroll along the river Tyne after checkout & had a couch for me to relax on as I waited for my train - gave me free wifi to upload my trip pictures too Great place to visit"
