Lovely staff and unusual character accommodation in the castle grounds. The room was small and cosy but the bed and bedding were so comfortable and I spelt so well. Very quiet and peaceful with a good shower

Karen United Kingdom

Did not experience the full facilities due covid .Host was very helpful

Clive United Kingdom

I loved my stay here! I had a really good deal and was given a room with a bath to relax in as requested! I was super grateful! The staff were lovely and sorted everything I needed! The perfect get away especially as I personally needed quiet time! I will definitely be back! I’d love to see the castle next time!

Ann-marie United Kingdom

location was excellent. It was just such a beautiful setting - castle, thatched roof cottages, gardens, tennis court, hot tub and tbe tiny very old church in tbe grounds as well as- star gazing at night in the gardens. The owners were charming and very accommodating.

Linda United Kingdom

Wonderful location and setting. Very tranquil and relaxing environment. I don't think you'd be able to find another B&B like it! It's great the castle heritage is being well looked after and we loved that a self guided tour was available to us. The courtyard and thatch cottages accommodation are lovely too. The freshly cooked breakfast every day was an added bonus.

Sarah United Kingdom

Location is quiet, but easily accessible to nearby towns. Room was very comfortable and extremely clean. Lovely breakfast. Kristy is a great asset to the place,lovely girl nothing is too much trouble.

Helen United Kingdom

Hosts were very keen to help, the area is beautiful, breakfast was excellent, bed very comfy.

Pamela United Kingdom

In unusual circumstances (covid) I think everyone strived to make our stay as normal and enjoyable as possible. Considering the immense financial strain that hotelliers must have been under lately, the value for money was excellent.

Stephen United Kingdom

The breakfast was high quality and very well cooked, coffee was great.

Jenny United Kingdom

Lovely location, beautiful and peaceful place, with a friendly proprietor. Rooms were small (at least ours was), but very comfortable and lots of hot warm for the shower.

Mary United Kingdom

Excellent location!

One of Devon's most beautiful wedding venues and bed and breakfast breaks, this 14th century castle nestles in a valley surrounded by 30 acres of lush green land.

The River Exe runs through the estate, offering you the chance to fish or just sit and listen as the river makes its way back to the sea. This is an opportunity not only to be close to nature, but to almost touch history: the chapel was built only 30 years after the Normans landed in Britain in the 11th century and stands intact today as probably the oldest 'living' building in Devon.

Bickleigh Castle offers bed and breakfast and wedding accommodation with 15 bedrooms, including twin, double and family rooms, available in our newly renovated thatched cottages situated around the castle courtyard. All of the bedrooms are tastefully decorated and furnished to a high standard.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.7 for a two-person trip.
