The property is a hotel/wedding venue. It’s beautifully decorated. Near to the highway and not far from Strewsbury. Nicely decorated living rooms and outdoor areas to sit in. Nice restaurant.

Fantastic but a couple of tweeks!

Fantastic hotel and i will return, but on the two evenings there along with other guests we had to walk to find staff for drinks and there wasnt on numerous occassions anyone on reception. They seemed to congregate in the kitchen area.

The staff were lovely with nothing too much trouble. The food was superb in an amazing dining room with proper tablecloths and napkins ! This is a wonderful 800 year old castle with no lift so, if you have walking difficulties, ask for a room on the first floor. The public rooms are magnificent but the bedrooms, while perfectly comfortable, would benefit from being brought up to date. Anyway, all in all a thoroughly enjoyable stay and we shall be sure to return.

Had a fantastic stay at this beautiful hotel. Only stayed for one night but we will defintely be back next time we are in England! The dinner in the restaurant was amazing and the staff went over and beyond the service letting us enjoy the lounge/bar for the evening. In the morning enjoyed a great breakfast
