Our comfortable room was in the main castle which had a four poster bed and was tastefully decorated with all the usual amenities. The place was covid secure with a one way in place to/from the restaurant. Meanwhile the bar area was nice & cosy, especially when fire is lit. Food was also very good, couldn’t fault.
