10/10 Excellent
"A really nice stay in a great location for Aira Force, Ullswater & Keswick. It's an old building so a few creaking floorboards but all added to the lovely warm welcoming vibe. Beds super comfy, towels very plush and great Pure Lakes toiletries. The bar was buzzing with locals and visitors alike and the food was really good. We had a good night's sleep and woke to a lovely breakfast. We will definitely return"

10/10 Excellent
"I have visited over 170 countries. This castle is in my top two or three most wonderful places I have ever visited. The castle is amazing but the main reason i loved this place so much is because the staff were beyond perfect. They made our stay something I will never forget. The food and wine could not have been more amazing. The live piano played at dinner was priceless. I will fondly remember this place for the rest of my life."
