My partner and I have just throughly enjoyed a 3 night stay at this wonderful hotel. From the first moment we walked in to a very friendly welcome from your very efficient receptionists, 'til the moment we left, I could not find any fault with hotel whatsoever! We booked an executive room for our stay. We were totally amazed by... More

Quality of bedroom and bathroom was excellent for a hotel in this range. Great shower and bath. No evidence of peeling paint, threadbare carpets etc. that is becoming so common in mid-range British hotels these days. Really friendly staff and restaurant food was good, although the menu is not particularly extensive nor exciting. More

Booked a break with my girlfriend and everything was great during our stay. Room was huge so we could leave all our outdoor equipment in lots of space rather than in cramped conditions as so often happens. Easy to find and friendly helpful staff who knew the area well. Dinner was lovely after relaxing in the pool from our walking.... More

Stayed at Christmas on a 3 night break, excellent from start to finish. Room was large modern and had been refurbished recently, good views and a really comfortable bed. Carol singers were great, Christmas lunch was superb and no washing up, lots of good walks in the area, try dodds wood, pity weather wasn't better. Overall a great hotel, staff... More

Booked as a two-night break in a suite. Situated in stunning scenery, welcoming staff - albeit with the new reception situated a long walk from the front of the hotel. The suite, initially impressed because of its size and cleanliness, on closer inspection lacked 4-star facilities - bathrobe , but no slippes, glasses but no bottled water, empty minibar, and...

We stayed at the Castle Inn between Christmas and New Year for a short break, and would definitely return again. We booked one of the four poster rooms which was absolutely gorgeous, there was a separate sitting area and a big bathroom with a walk in show and amazing corner bath. We ate in the dinning room one night and... More
