Dirty room and tired
Cobwebs. Food crumbs under glass cover on top of desk. Wires hanging out of walls and switches. The furniture has seen better days, very tired and damaged. The place is lovely and would recommend seeing it. Don't stay til they've refurbished it though.

Castle-had high hopes but turned out we were disappointed with the accommodation. Quirkiness outweighed by lack of modern equipment and facilities. From a catering perspective we enjoyed the stay with a quality offer.

What an amazing place! I've never stayed in a 14th C castle before. The location is very convenient and yet private in the beautiful grounds. I was in the main castle building on the second floor. There is a lift available but I used the circular tower stairs. The room was in a style in keeping with the venue and was both clean and comfortable. Plenty of hot water for the shower. The meals in the restaurant were excellent. This hotel has a wonderful welcoming atmosphere, the staff were very friendly and helpful, and is a great place for something out of the ordinary. I look forward to staying here again.
