Wonderful Stay at the Castle
ample parking spacious room charming decor beautiful surrounding
I found ample customer parking near the entrance. My room was spacious. It was comfortable, also it had charming decor. The approach to the hotel features beautiful surroundings.
The bathroom radiator felt quite cold. I did find that the view from my room looked directly onto a brick wall. The room also felt a bit isolated, only a small issue.
Service

I noticed that all the staff seemed friendly. Staff were helpful, especially at reception. This service contributed positively to my overall experience at the premises.

Acceptable stay overall
tasty breakfast water pressure lovely staff brick wall cold bathroom unhelpful receptionist
I enjoyed the fast and tasty breakfast they have. The water pressure in the shower was good. It was better than at home. The staff were so lovely too.
My room's view was not ideal. It was just a brick wall. The bathroom rad was also cold, and I found that the food was average. The receptionist was not helpful at my arrival.
