Very disappointed had to pay to park in hotel carpark and was expected to pay to use swimming pool. Feel hotel guests should not have to when already paid to stay . Room and hotel very clean. Staff very friendly and helpful. Feel menu could have been better and you should not be charged for more if have allergies. Central for castle and town

We really enjoyed our time here. We didn’t realize when we booked here that they accept dogs and we really enjoyed meeting everyone’s pups! The staff was friendly and helpful and the pool and hottub were a huge bonus after walking a million steps a day up hill. The building is really unique and picturesque and we would definitely stay here again.
