I cannot rave about our stay here enough! Every aspect is truly first class. We stayed here for my mother’s 75th birthday. They made her feel so special all day from lunch at the bar to dinner at the restaurant no detail was missed. Food and drinks were excellent at both. The grounds are gorgeous and the rooms are spacious (we booked superior room). But what shined the most was the staff, everyone was so friendly and accommodating. We had an early departure and the staff had a to go coffee ready before we departed, so many little extra touches like this made this a fabulous stay!

Did not expect to stay in a fairly modern room several hundred meters from the castle, but it was clean and quiet. The breakfast was to die for and the setting inside the castle was exquisite. Loved our stay!

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.
