Appleby-in-Westmorland

"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."

Top Dufton Hotel Reviews

The World Famous Tan Hill Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely place. This is a rustic place in the middle of nowhere and is fantastic! Worth all the travel. Staff were amazing. Food was superb. I had the giant Yorkshire pudding with beef bourginon. My room was lovely and the bed comfortable. A very welcoming place even for a single traveller like me. I’m definitely going back at some point! Brilliant"

The Royal Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay here so much. Our hosts were so friendly and helpful. The included full breakfast was the best. The room was very clean and comfortable. Great outdoor area as well as the comfortable inside area."

The George Hotel

8/10 Good

"Really enjoyed our stay. Staff were all first class, and the ambiance was excellent. Only small downside was the noise in our bedroom from the heating system which didn’t stop until quite late. Nevertheless, still very enjoyable stay, and will come back"

"Fascinating historical location and brilliant setting. We enjoyed the history tour and climb of the tower. Great views towards Hadrians Wall in the distance."

Appleby Castle

10/10 Excellent

"It was an amazing experience to be in a real castle we chose a cheaper room so we didn’t have an en-suite but a beautiful bathroom in the corridor instead. The owners were so helpful and friendly and we had a very good quality evening meal with beautiful romantic piano music played by the manager and a history talk too. The owner was a beautiful lady who chatted to us in the bar area. We’d like to go again. Breakfast was good."

"We stayed over a weekend with a group of friends. The hotel was efficient and staff very friendly. We had an excellent large room, lots of space for our kit. The breakfast, whilst being a buffet style, offered many fresh options and was very tasty. We had an evening meal, again this was excellent too. Well done."

Edenhall Country House Hotel

"Lovely friendly, helpful staff, comfy beds, a great breakfast and a nice atmosphere in the bar/restaurant. Building interior is a bit dated."
