Castle Inn , A great place

Stay was excellent , especially the staff. Elizabeth in the restaurant remembered me from the last time and asked about the family . She is a treasure and should be treated as such- and no ,,she did not pay me for writing this

Shabir, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely hotel with good leisure facilities.

Booked a mid-week break to get away from it all. Had room 104. Lovely suite, with sitting area. Bed was comfortable, but the room was very warm. No A/c, just a fan. Thank goodness we didn't stay during the July heatwave. Food in the restaurant was very tasty, but I would call it a bar not a restaurant. Good choice for breakfast.

Honey moon

The rooms we stayed in were very clean, the staff were helpful and well staffed nothing was any bother for us. We made use of the tennis court which was also included and free! Lovely beer garden and the flower gardens were beautiful and well kept. View of the lake and hills from our room was wonderful. Parking was good with ample free parking bays. Good selection of breakfast choices ranging from continental and full English. The evening meal choices were not that good as menu was a bit small which had fish, pie, burger, steak, and sausage. Our first two evening meals of our visit were laced in salt however after ordering the steak on our third evening meal we kindly told the staff that we would prefer no salt, which the staff did for us and got to admit the meal was very tasty. Would highly recommend this hotel 😃

The room was excellent and so were the rest of the facilities. The staff were friendly and very efficient. Although renovation work was being carried out during the day it did not interfere with the enjoyment of our stay.

Lubos, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is in a quiet rural area out of town. It would be beneficial if you have a car, but there is a good bus service and the bus stop is across the road from the hotel. When we were there the hotel was being renovated but we never found this a problem and everyone was very helpful, lovely staff.
