I understand this is a castle but boy are the beds cold and even damp. No heating in rooms. Really cold. Food is hit and miss. Not much atmosphere jsut the man who owns it playing what seems to be his own country and western music. Love the atmosphere of this place but could do with a revamp

We arrived at the castle at 15:00 on the Saturday after a long journey. Outside the view is very impressive. All the doors were shut and no-one answered the phone. Eventually got someone by walking around and banging on a window however not a good start. Once in discovered the heating was not on so the room was freezing. The... More

Right from the onset the staff were so helpful and attentive, especially Maura who took care of everything we... More

I’ve had the misfortune of being there 4 times; first time for my daughter's christening 2008. Dreadful service and the owner made it clear to me that it was up to her standards so I could just take it. What else could I do half way through the meal with 20 of my family and friends. Needless to say I... More

We were seated in a small room upstairs beside an open fire which the staff decided to light on our arrival. The room filled with smoke in a matter... More
