Beautiful castle and grounds. Its a bit like a maze getting round it. Lots of stunningly beautiful rooms to relax and chill and have a drink or two. Drinks are not cheap but priced around the going rate. Its a great base to explore surrounding towns. We were staying as family of 10 enjoying the run up to Christmas in a beautiflly decorated castle. The only let down for us was the feble camp beds that we had to use for our 8 and 6yr old. They were uncomfortable and sunken in middle giving little support.
