Overall, this is a magical place. The setting of the hotel exceeded expectations. It's perched at the top of a huge hill with views of the countryside in every direction. Be aware that you'll be driving basically straight uphill at one point! You can explore the entire castle complex next-door free of charge, which I definitely recommend! Arriving later in the day to stormy weather, we didn't get to take advantage of the hotel's beautiful terrace. But we enjoyed exploring the spooky hallways and also had a great dinner in the restaurant. Unfortunately, there were a couple of issues with our room. First, the A/C did not appear to be working, we had it set to the lowest setting and the room was still very warm, which made for not the best night's sleep. Second, the temperature control for the main rainfall shower head was apparently broken, nothing we did could get the temperature down from scalding hot. Luckily the temperature control for the handheld hose was working, so we were able to use that. The room was lovely otherwise, the bathroom was beautiful and the windows opened right out to a view of the castle. If we'd been able to stay another night, I would have raised these issues to the management, but we just had the one night and an early checkout, so I didn't get a chance to bring it up. The staff were lovely and I'm sure they would have tried to help. I honestly wish we could have stayed longer!
The bedroom. Lovely but it's a bit tight between the bed and the dresser.
The bathroom.
The second floor hallway.
The interior courtyard area of the hotel.

It’s a real treat staying here. What a fun place to stay, a hotel that is part of a 15th C castle. The facilities are great. The tavern on the property had excellent food. The rooms are spacious and very nice.

Great service from this friendly hotel team

Warm and efficient welcome by Joao. Was offered help with bags. Hotels.com reward in room. Clean, tidy and comfortable room. Service at dinner equally excellent as was the food and wine.
