Went for a one night stay for my partners birthday.what a lovely experience it was. After reading reviews after booking it I was wondering if it was not going to be so good.as some complaints about it being slightly run down and cold.we went with an open mind and we was not diserpointed at all.it was actually much better than we ever imagined it was going to be and we can't wait to go back. Our room was just fantastic,warm, clean and furnished beautiful. We had a four poster bed and it was perfect. The whole experience was so lovely and the staff where very attentive and helpful.ruth from the dining room was such a lovely lady and couldn't do enough for everyone. The food was fine we had an evening meal and breakfast, couldn't fault it. Had a wander around the grounds seeing all the wildlife and peacocks.granted some things are a little tired and tatty but it's a castle and none of that reflected on our opinions of the whole experience.we absolutely loved it and can't wait to go back. Thank you for a lovely stay ,lovely experience and very nice staff.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
A splendid building is let down by very poor standards. There seemed no contingency in cold weather to heat the public spaces as well as the rooms. Absolutely freezing and virtually impossible to rectify with the inadequate heating system. Shower drain was blocked. Toilet seat damaged. Some lights not working. Mould on bathroom tiles. Two panes of glass missing from large window on main staircase with freezing air blowing in. The list goes on and most of these issues could be rectified quickly and at minimum cast. The quality of the breakfast was mediocre and very poorly presented with buckets of food being poured into serving dishes. This should not be carried out in front of guests waiting to serve themselves but done elsewhere and brought to the dining area ready to serve. Staff are very friendly and simply require guidance and support which appears to be missing.
