We booked a night for my daughter’s hen party. The castle looked amazing on the photos but in person it was unbelievable. The turret rooms were excellent and well finished. Some of the beds in the main castle were so beautiful and ornate. Mandy was brilliant. Such an amazing host and made us feel at ease from the moment we arrived. We need to think of a reason to stay again as we all had such a good time.

We absolutely loved staying at the castle to celebrate our friends 40th birthdays! John was great messaging prior to our stay, with any questions I had answered quickly. Mandy was incredibly welcoming and friendly, who met us on arrival and showed us around. What a magnificent place to stay! The castle was incredible, and had loads of amazing rooms and features.

Castle hen party

Excellent property, so much room and character.Mandy the host looked after us well and just left us to it. Enough kitchen space to make and serve our evening buffet and make breakfast.The turrets where we slept were beautiful and the castle grounds are breathtaking.Red inn pub is 2 minutes walk away and serves very reasonably priced food which is delicious.Would highly recommend this magical castle for a truly unique experience.

Birthday celebration

This castle is a gem.of a find. I celebrated my 50th birthday with 24 family and friends. The bedrooms and bathrooms are beautiful, the main lounge and library great places to gather and spend time together. The dining room was perfect for our special meal. The kitchen neefs some renovation but i understand this is happening later this year. We had a fantastic time celebrating in thisamazing castle.

Ideal location and 'homestay' for large family group

The perfect location for my sister's 50th birthday. we booked 4 turret apartments and a main guest bedroom in the house for 15 of us. Great 2pm check-in time and John allowed us a 3pm check-out time on the Sunday which meant we could spend time together as a family for longer. Bedrooms/apartments are very modern and fully equipped. Living spaces are large and enough space for large family dinners

50th Birthday Incredible Stay

From start to finish Mandy the housekeeper catered for our every need. Nothing was too much for her. Rooms were all stunning and clean. We hired a magician and it was the perfect venue for this. We would definitely recommend and look forward to returning soon! Already planning our next visit! The rooms were even better than the photos online. Thank you for a fabulous stay!

Dungeons and dragons

Myself and 6 friends stayed for 2 nights and it was absolutely incredible. Between board games , archery , ace throwing and just exploring the castle , the whole weekend was perfect from start to finish. The check in was great and we got to see a lot of the castle and ask questions etc. The rooms were stunning and comfortable. The whole place felt so safe that we didn’t lock any doors and immediately felt like we were at home.

Our castle adventure!

We had such a lovely time together for a long weekend away at this fantastic castle. It isn’t perfect but the housekeeper and owner are great at communicating and any issues we had such as with the wifi (not their fault) were dealt with as best as they could. The owner is working his way around the castle doing it up and I am sure the new kitchen will be amazing when it’s done and make a nice addition to the shared area. Would go again

Friend's 60th Birthday weekend.

The planning phase was excellent eg negotiation with the manager John re number of rooms etc, facilities, and many other issues. Arrival was smooth. The Castle is amazing, especially when lit up and the grounds are lovely. Osman showed us around and he was very professional and helpful. The Turret rooms are fabulous with exceptional amenities including the sofa beds which are very comfortable. Also the Castle rooms are very impressive. The layout eg kitchen, lounge and dining room plus fridges etc worked extremely well for our celebration. The location worked well for us as we visited the Gladstone Pottery museum, Emma Gladstone Pottery Factory and the next day, the National Memoral Arboretum We are only disappointed we didn't stay for longer - next time!! We will definitely visit again and recommend to our family/friends.
