We had the most amazing stay at the castle. We have never experienced anything as wonderful as this property. The staff went above and beyond to make sure you had the best possible experience. They were very open to engage in conversation and available for assistance. The property was the most beautiful property we have ever seen. The staff was excellent the food was superb. We are hoping one day we will return and stay longer. Thank you.
