Bickleigh Castle  

The setting was lovely, the room was in a 16century thatched cottage near the main house, the beds were very comfortable and included in the toiletries was a shoe shine, which I found very useful as I needed to clean my boots after walking to the local restaurant for dinner. (Chef off due to wedding previous day). We had a lively breakfast cooked my Mrs Hill and the owners were very friendly and helpful - I would consider Bickleigh Castle for my wedding . We thourghly enjoyed ourselves.

This is purely personal - but I did not realise on booking that the bathroom would be shared with another room - luckily we were the only people staying so was not a problem.

The History is really interesting and the ability to be able to stay in this castle and share in its past was really a lovely experience. It was quiet and relaxing. Breakfast was very nice and being able to sit on a 16/17th century dinning table belonging to Princess Catherine (Henry the v111 Aunty) was amazing. The owner was very kind to show us around the castle and the grounds along with a history lession of the Castle. We will definitely be going back again.

An ensuite would be nice as the Bathroom is a shared one.

A delightful idyllic location with some good amenities for a smallish Hotel.

Bickleigh Castle offers a truelly relaxing and magical experience. Staff are very freindly and effiecient. An ideal venue for a romantic wedding or a special business conference. Nearby I saw only my second otter swimming down the centre of the river in a wildlife haven. Breakfast was delicous too, so I will be returning!!!!!!

Rustige ligging

Het wordt beschreven als kasteel, maar dat is slechts in beperkte mate aanwezig. Voor een belangrijk deel bestaat het estate uit cottages. De ontvangst was erg knullig, evenas het ontbijt. Het estate ligt mooi, maar B&B kwalificatie zou meer passen bij het geheel. In z'n geheel een beetje teleurstellend.

Very homely and welcoming. Fantastic location and the castle had so much wealth of history

Our family spent four days (the Easter weekend) at Bickleigh castle - it was a great time, especially the location, the calm atmosphere (we were nearly the only guests then), the opportunities for the children (many things to explore in a safe environment) and the friendly welcome. We really recommend the castle!

Only the beds were a little too soft; a room-shared bathroom at the floor is not optimal, but was no problem for us, because we had it just for our family.
