A B&B GEM!
It was an inspired choice, when we opted to book our castle stay. First impressions are that you are made to feel very welcome. Our room was larger than we had anticipated, super clean, with an oversized shower and a very comfortable bed. Breakfast was top class, with locally sourced produce, and served in a marvellous first floor room in the castle itself.
Do not miss the opportunity to dine in the castle if you are invited to do so! This could be the highlight of your stay..The food, served by our host Tobias, was beyond excellent. Do try a dish that you've not had previously. There is also a good choice of wines at reasonable prices. I am a food snob and I loved it. My wife is not a food snob and she loved it even more!

Owner, and Baron, James, was an equally friendly, delightful, informative and welcoming host. We were fortunate to meet, and spend time with a fellow guest, a Polish priest currently living in Edinburgh. We leave with many memories to treasure. Thank you...

It was so nice to learn from James about the history of the land and their ancestors.
There is plenty of parking, it's near some lovely towns with great restaurants and there appears to be a resident peacock. He was beautiful! Breakfast was delicious and the presentation was delightful. We would stay again in...
