This hotel was everything I expected, but the grounds were the best part for me. Walked over to the pro shop and rented clubs (sleeve of balls and tees included) and played 9 holes despite a little rain. High tea at the castle was incredible. Staff was great without being pushy.

The staff was absolutely amazing- truly, the most hospitable and high touch service I've experienced at any 5 star stay. Nathaniel, Olga, Enda and the sweet young lady with the creative glasses (I didn't write down her name) were so accommodating, always thinking a step ahead. Truly, they went above and beyond to make vacation with my 83 year old mom magical and memorable!
