Unfortunately the Castle was hosting a couple of large events while we stayed there which was quite loud. We were unable to enjoy some of the beautiful sitting areas as they were overrun with over 350 guests. The staff was courteous and apologetic, but it was beyond their control. They did try to make amendments however their ability was limited. The Castle itself, is outstanding, sadly we booked on the wrong weekend!

We had a great girls getaway there. Everything was very nice and we enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend! The bed sleeping pillows were hard and very uncomfortable. They sent us up feather pillows that were no better. Invest in soft down pillows, to give guests a good night sleep.

An Elegant and Relaxing Getaway

Everyone is very friendly and helpful. The room was very comfortable. Knights Bar is a great place to start your day with coffee and a scone and end the day with a cocktail and dinner. It's an easy walk to the bus stop to go into City Center or to St Anne's Park.

A very good staff

Spending the weekend at a mideval castle is a unique and rare experience. Knowing Celts from 1000 years ago faught the Vikings just feet from your bed is quite a feeling. The Vernon family preserved the castle well for 300 years until it was purchased some 50 years ago. The hotel is very clean and nicely designed with a terrific staff. VJ the concierge is very familiar with places to see and enjoy. We had a great anniversary weekend and hope to return soon.
