Timing is everything

We have stayed here a couple of times in the past. They have just finished a refurb and were also filming an episode of "The Hotel Inspector" so there were some restrictions but as ever the staff were great and the welcome was warm. The food was as good as on previous visits. However it was a little noisy at times and a few distractions for the staff. We will visit again, I'm sure

Small and cosy place

I have stayed here before and it is located in a small English village on the country side. Hiking paths close by and the real feel of a true English village. The hotel is small, but the staff very friendly and welcoming. Rooms are mostly in an annex. Small rooms, but adequate space. Quiet and relaxing atmosphere. The restaurant is great and the full English breakfast gives a good start of the day. There is parking space on the back of the hotel if you come by car.

A comfortable stay in a very pretty village

The Castle Inn Hotel is in a lovely quiet picturesque village. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. Our room was small but clean and had an iron and ironing board in the wardrobe. There was one chair, a small table and two nightstands. The ensuite bathroom was clean with a good hot shower, but it took up the whole of what would have been quite a large bedroom window at that end of the room. There was one other small window in the bedroom area so the room was quite dark without the lights on. While it was great that the hotel is eco conscious, the problem with the bathroom light being movement reactive, meant that there was no way to switch it off before entering and closing the door, so my husband was woken up by a bright beam from the bathroom light in the middle of the night. Apart from that it was a pleasant stay and the restaurant was good except for the food being rather too salty for my taste.

Charming old coaching inn, great food and service

Enjoyable stay for a couple of nights. Great food, both dinner and breakfast. Friendly, helpful staff. There isn't a single right angle or level floor in the inn but that just adds to its charm. Hot water takes an age to come through in the bathroom but there is sign to that effect. Would stay again.
