Far exceeded our expectations. Special room with a special view. Sumptuous dinner in the castle (extra cost - but worth it!) Delicious breakfast and complimentary entry to tour the castle. A really fabulous stay! Thank you.

Enjoyable Experience! Pretty good value, a nights stay, breakfast for 2, access to the castle & grounds/gardens. The Stables were clean and tidy, excellent breakfast was included - buffet style with cooked breakfast options - full English cooked breakfast, pancakes or Eggs Benedict. The room was small but cosy with good heating, the room was very clean, it had a small jug for hot drinks, a couple of mugs and glasses, a small iron and ironing board. Basic laundry facilities available. A small fridge is provided upstairs in the stables for communal use. The bathrooms were also clean but quite dated and potentially quite cold in autumn/winter months. The shower was a little on the dingy side, which is my only real complaint, it was clean but had obviously mold, could benefit from being up graded. I believe they have a Trust the Chief dinner arrangement (at an additional cost) where you can have dinner in the castle, and there's a cafe in the ballroom. You are able to leave the grounds any time you wish and are given a code to access the gates. Parking can be a bit of a squeeze for the stables and lodge with not many spots available. Definitely not a wheelchair accessible place to stay. Overall it was good value for money and an enjoyable once in a lifetime opportunity to stay and enjoy the atmosphere of Larnach's Castle after dark.

Wow - just fantastic views of the Otago peninsular from our room. The dining experience in the Castle is a must do. Great meal and service in a unique ambiance. Great value too as garden and castle visit is included in the room rate.

The rooms are in a rough-hewn building away from the castle. They were adequate, but nothing exceptional. Breakfast service was incredibly slow.

Amazing location
Obviously the location is the reason to stay here, it’s absolutely spectacular. The rooms in the stables are basic and the beds and bedding have seen better days. If they invested some money into the stables area it could be fabulous and they could charge more but I realise the upkeep of the castle will take priority. The price is good for what you get.
