A very good staff

Spending the weekend at a mideval castle is a unique and rare experience. Knowing Celts from 1000 years ago faught the Vikings just feet from your bed is quite a feeling. The Vernon family preserved the castle well for 300 years until it was purchased some 50 years ago. The hotel is very clean and nicely designed with a terrific staff. VJ the concierge is very familiar with places to see and enjoy. We had a great anniversary weekend and hope to return soon.
