Room spacious and very clean. Our springer spaniel made very welcome !
Our evening meal, especially our main courses, were unexceptional. In particular, my lentil shepherds pie was nothing like a shepherds pie, with gravy lying on the top. Not sure what the additional jug of gravy was for. Having said that, it did taste better than it looked.

We stayed in the room N7 in the attic and throroughly enjoyed ourselves at the Castle hotel. The room was cosy with a charming decor, the view through the attic window was stunning. The bed was super comfortable - I had the best sleep ever! The bathroom was very clean and modern. The staff were friendly and helpful. The restaurant meal was simply outstanding! Overall 10/10 and I’m looking forward to coming back again in the future!

Great location. Lovely old building with lots of character. Great options for dining from cosy pub/bar areas to more formal restaurant. Very quiet location.
TV too small to watch from the distance of chairs/ bed … but didn’t bother us as we spent the evening in the cosy bar.

breakfast was really good, lots of fruit and seeds etc in the buffet Hot dishes also good. Dinner was excellent, not overprices but sensible size portions and lots of flavour
No lift but I understand the reason for that. Room suffered a lot of condensation and bathroom fittings could do with a bit more care.

Great location, historic building and fantastic garden.
We had a very small room, cozy but very little space.

Cleanliness was good.
Room location. Scaffolding was up against the windows. It was facing a back service yard. One of the windows was banging all night. I'm not sure if it was a fitting or the scaffolding that was hitting the window. My room was right next to the beer garden, so it was noisy until closing time.
The food wasn't great. I spent over £40 on a meal, and it was very average.

Lovely location, beautiful location, very clean and staff were very friendly and helpful
Only problem was two flights of stairs as I'm disabled but still worth the effort of climbing them

Great food, service was excellent. Accommodation was spotless and very comfortable.
It’s a very hilly little village , as was the garden at the hotel. This made the outside areas around the hotel a bit inaccessible for those with mobility issues. Other than that it was lovely.

Everything went well, thanks. My room was beautifully appointed, had complementary dressing gowns, hot drink facilities, a super comfy bed. It was peaceful and relaxing.
Dinner and breakfast were lovely, good value for money. The Sunday roast, small portion was plenty for me...I imagine the normal portion would be huge!! Lovely, crispy Yorkshire puddings, almost as good as my Mum's!!
All staff were so polite and attentive. I loved the live music in the beautiful surroundings.
I would certainly recommend anyone to stay here for a restful, country break. The surrounding countryside is stunning and Bishop's Castle is an interesting, querky little town.
Nothing, it was all great.
