We stayed here last night for my husbands birthday, the staff were extremely helpful, polite and friendly. Beautiful, well kept hotel in a lovely location, we had stayed here before and even though I had contacted the hotel to ask for a different room, we were allocated the same four poster room as last time - not a problem though,...

Thank you for writing your review about our hotel. I am sorry that you found members of staff to be rude although the members of staff concerned were only following procedures. If a guest wants to charge drinks to a room account, they would need to show their card which is issued by the hotel on check in to prove... More

My husband booked us the night here for our wedding anniversary, on arrival I was very impressed with building and surroundings. We were an hour early for check in but the lady on reception let us check in early which was really helpful. The best part about the hotel was the staff very helpful and polite, bad point was the...

Thank you for your review. I am pleased that you found all our staff to be helpful and polite, however I do take on board your comments about the mattress. We do have different types of beds available and I am sure if you stay with us again we would find one which is more suitable for you. More

“Very disappointing!”

Reviewed May 5, 2013

I booked a room in the castle for my wife and I to celebrate her 40th birthday. Six years ago we considered Walworth castle as a wedding venue but eventually booked nearby Headlam hall. We have stayed at Headlam hall since and it has always been excellent. On this occasion Headlam hall was fully booked and so I decided to... More

Firstly I would like to say how sorry I am that you didn't enjoy your stay. Having read your review I can assure you that we have not swapped any room numbers and the reviews from previous customers are based entirely on their own opinion, although they may not always be factual. Although you are comparing our hotel to Headlam... More

Having purchased a night in this 16th century castle for my partners birthday, we stayed here on Valentines weekend.

We loved the suite, a lovely comfy couch and huge... More

“Somewhere different”

Reviewed April 16, 2013

It's not every day you get the chance to stay in a 16th century castle! Rooms were clean, staff were sometimes hard to find but very friendly. I think food was was ok (supplied by Brakes?) and good value for what we were paying. It's a pity they don't use the gorgeous passion fruit ice-cream made on a farm just... More

Thank you for your review. Some parts of the castle actually date back to 1189 although other parts do date back to the 16th century. We source as much local produce as we possible can. The milk and dairy is organic and is from Acorn dairy which is just a couple of miles down the road. Our meat is from... More
