This was our third time staying here. We just love the relaxing atmosphere, the excellent food in the restaurant. The staff are always very friendly and provide a great service. We always go on Valentines weekend and it is never too busy, it can actually feel very exclusive in this regard. The fantastic spa completes the experience
Sitting next to the River Eden in the beautiful Eden Valley at the edge of the Lake District is the majestic Appleby Castle.

Don't like posting negatives to but this did not start well. notice on door definitely no check ins before 3pm so wasn't happy when no one was there until 3.30. No ambiance very dark and gloomy which is to be expected in an old castle. The Hothfield bedroom was nice, with view of keep. Only one other couple checked in so it all felt a little strange in such a huge building. A lot of signs for things you can't do. Did not have any meals but dining room looked like something from King Arthur's days armour tapestry wall hangings etc. when deciding to stay do your homework and make up your own minds. A fairly long walk from carpark if carrying heavy bags.
Near the beautiful River Eden, in the ancient town of Appleby in Westmorland, this traditional 17th century coaching inn offers free Wi-Fi and rooms with attached bathroom.

We had a family crisis hit during or stay and our hosts were so very kind and helpful, allowing us to extend the stay another night, which reduced stress enormously. Thank you again!

A lovely village with a castle, river, woodlands, a great park under construction and a swimming pool. There are a few nice cafes, a couple of restaurants and pubs and some lovely gift shops. We ate at the 'Crown and Cushion' pub for a traditional meal and 'The Cutting Garden Cafe' for breakfast. We had a lovely stay and would definitely return.

Appleby is a stones throw from the Dales and the Lake District. The town itself is friendly with several options for food and drink. It does have a "small" weekly market and several independent shops. There are lots of walking trails and a haunted castle, a perfect hide away from city living.

We phoned up on the morning of our booking to confirm check in time. We were told they were cancelling our booking because they had no bed linen. They had not attempted to call and inform us. Be careful if you book this hotel

It was horrible from start to finish i had paid for 2 nights i left first thing in the morning after first night. It is nothing like the web says, one man that stunk of alcohol and bo checked us in he was also the cook and the bar man, one look at the state of the kitchen told me i wasnt eating in there, it wasnt even a bar it was a pop up with can of beer, to say i was devastated was an under statement , the bed squeeked all night with every movement, it was pitch black in the corridors we had to use the torches on our phones to find the room, do not go here

What a fantastic opportunity to stay in a truly memorable location. Yes the floors are uneven yes the things are old very old. The bathrooms are however up to date. You are a stones throw from town.
Staff were fantastic but stretched by the logistics a little. We had wifi other than that go to the bar the games room tv room or walk in the grounds….we loved it don’t go to a Castle if you want everything new…….I would recommend this to anyone who appreciates staying in a castle that is pretty much as it was in 1680s parts of it far older than that….. thanks for a great opportunity to stay in the awesome place

We only stayed overnight so shops were closed but nice to stroll and windowshop. Limited places to eat so would recommend booking a table. Parking also limited, discs need to be displayed. Lovely river with benches on the banks to enjoy the scenery
everything about the royal oak is fantastic. i would highly recommend the Royal Oak to everyone.
We were a family of 3 with our Beagle cross and i can honestly say this is the best hotel we have stayed in with our pooch. the staff are very friendly and cannot do enough for you. the doggy welcome pack was amazing and not expected. the food is A*. we will be visiting again soon xx
The Crown Inn is not actually in Appleby-in-Westmoreland but in the very small village of Snape. We had a large room with walk in shower. Plenty of car parking available right in front of the hotel. Excellent wifi and mobile phone signal. Our bed although comfortable was so low it was difficult to get in and out, possible due to our age. Our evening meals were really outstanding.
Excellent stay in the castle. Staff were friendly. Room was big and comfortably warm and the bed was so comfortable.
Breakfast was OK , nice but nothing to write home about.
The novelty of staying in a castle was great. If you want a modern box of a hotel room, don't stay here but if you are looking for something a little different, I highly recommend!
We wanted an overnight stay in Appleby and this suited us down to the ground. Spotlessly clean, with an amazingly friendly host, the property was within easy walking distance of the centre of Appleby with its pubs and restaurants. The property was immaculate in every way and the breakfast cooked to perfection.
Comfortable, clean, well equipped. We appreciated the added extras: toiletries, milk, tea, coffee, biscuits etc.
Great location. Appleby is a lovely little town. Nice pubs nearby that serve good food. Surrounded by beautiful scenery & walking in the Pennines. Also the Lake District is only a short drive.
The pub is lovely. Located right in the middle of Appleby it has a tea room as well as the bar area. Nice rooms nothing fancy but clean and very comfy beds. Food good value and very nice. Staff very friendly and other customers in pub great fun. It's very dog friendly
Lovely old hotel which has been tastefully decorated, complementing the original features. Lovely spa (but note 'thermal journey' - no pool). Stayed in the Garden Suite which was great for three of us with two bedrooms, kitchenette, sitting room and conservatory.
Helpful staff let us into our room early to change for a wedding we attended.
Welcoming host.
Breakfast excellent- fresh, good quality, cooked well and with flexibility of choices.
Location close to pretty Appleby town centre
Excellent cottage and great location within lovely Appleby and close to fabulous scenery. Kitchen is very well equipped and the whole place is very comfortable and yet quite spacious (for 5 of us).
The property is situation in the middle of Appleby which is quite convenient. Though we did not go into the main portion of the property, which appeared lovely, I wish we had stayed there.
The ambience of the whole hotel; the opportunities for sitting quietly, both indoors and outdoors was great; the lovely grounds and the view across to Appleby castle; the spacious room.
Staff were helpful and friendly. There was a cosy fire in the pub area. The beds were very comfortable and the room and bathroom were spacious and clean.
