I joined a class on one day course to make coiled ring. Tuition by Claire was first class, and I was amazed at the quality of my finished product. I had never done anything similar before. Clare ensured that we all met a good standard. Shane kept the group feed and watered, with delicious goodies and lunch.

Where do I start! Yes 5 stars from us. I found out about the B&B from an earlier visit for the silver jewellery course. Which was just fantastic. I went with one friend and left with many it was such a great day learning how to make a silver ring. Clare was very thorough and I realised that the skills she was showing us would benefit us later when we attended the half day courses. Oh I have to mention the lunch that Shane prepared was absolutely gorgeous and in our coffee break hand made shortbread. The food was just divine. On having a tour of the building and seeing how they had renovated the upstairs to a B&B I wanted to book for our wedding anniversary but I did not want to wait till Dec so we booked it in Sept. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel so welcome. Loved the small detail that provides you everything in your room. Yes we had TV in the private lounge and bedroom but no we did not need it. Hot tub all afternoon-with a bottle of Cava was just the ticket. A home cooked meal was just so deliciously made ribs to die for! I hardly found room for (Shane’s light) Lemon Cheesecake. Honestly I do not think I could recommend this enough it was the perfect place to relax and would not hesitate-to book again. Thank you both for such an incredible stay. Truly magical xxx

we had a wonderful time at Castellon de Bedar, our hosts were warm and friendly and made us feel very at home... I could not recommend this place more.... perched at the top of Bedar it is so quiet and tranquil... a perfect break away from the hustle and bustle of life..

My partner and I have just come back from a week’s stay at the beautiful Castellon de Bedar, where we enjoyed the jewellery workshop too! As we walked through the authentic Spanish village, Shane and Clare the owners, walked us through their beautiful planted patio and into their stunning Spanish house. We were shown to our own quarters with a bedroom, lounge, shower room and balcony. The BnB is decorated to the highest of standards and all our needs were taken care of... coffee's and teas, fresh water, toiletries, slippers, etc. The view from our balcony was breath-taking... in a beautiful Spanish village surrounded by mountains, and you could even see as far as the ocean. It was completely tranquil.
We had freshly cooked breakfast every day from the hosts, including freshly-squeezed juice using locally picked oranges - definitely a must-try! A few nights we enjoyed dinner at Castellon where Shane cooked his famous paella dish and a fish dish, recommending the best local wines to suit too. The food was so fresh and to such a high standard - we felt like we were in paradise as we sat on our balcony enjoying beautiful food with tasty Spanish wine, surrounded by candles and magnificent views. We also later had a dip in their hot tub with a glass of Prosecco, in case we weren’t being spoilt enough already!
As part of our package we had a workshop with Clare and made our own rings. Clare was so patient and taught us at our own pace. We ended up making beautiful pieces of jewellery which really topped off the week and meant we had a souvenir to take home.
Bedar village has some great little restaurants and bars just walking distance from Castellon. And then a short ride away is several beautiful towns which have lots going on and lots to do! The location really is ideal and has so many amenities close by. Whether you want a peaceful stay or to explore what the beautiful island has to offer, this is the perfect spot. And not far from the airport either!
When Shane and Clare dropped us back to the airport, we are very sad to leave but have since booked to come back! Hopefully my jewellery skills are still up to scratch!
Thank you for a wonderful stay both, absolutely highly recommended x
