It was amazing to sleep in a castle. We tryed to book dinner in advance but we were told the restaurant was closed. When we came to check inn they asked us if we wanted to eat in the restaurant we told them we tryed to book but that they told us it was closed. The thing is you can only eat at the restaurant if you are staying for the night. We had a delicious dinner with a lovely host. The bed was comfortable but the door in the coridor has squeeky hinges so every time someone opend that door we heard it. We were missing a tv remote but git another one real quick. The shower was lovely, you just need to put a towel down on the end otherwise the whole bathroom will get wet. The breakfast was okay. Some delicious options but they didnt fill the table so everytime you wanted something that wasnt on the table you had to ask. Quick check out and again very friendly staff.

Nice but could be alot better.
Newly tastfully decorated, staff friendly and attentive. Standard of food was on a par with pub grub, so not for foodies, also the dining room windows needed a wipe down due to dead insects. Wardrobe in room almost useless for hanging clothes full of other items . Better provision for hanging your cloths is needed, the wardrobe was small and was used to store a fridge, safe, hairdryer and ironing board. In short a potentially very nice hotel let down by attention to details.

Lovely place but rock hard eggs
Welcoming staff and lovely building. Dinner was great but the breakfast was poor and I couldn't eat it. Never seen poached so hard, mattress on the bed was pretty 'used' with a big dip in it so not the most comfortable for the money. They also charged my card for 50% of my booking 2 days before our stay without permission and the balance on the arrival day rather than 'pay at property' which was how the booking was made. I then had to chase up the invoices.

Great stay
Overall our stay was great. Was attending a wedding at Cornhill Castle everything was great apart from slight delay in getting our room as Bride was using it to get ready so wasn't too bothered. Room was huge, with both bathroom and separate shower room. Very comfortable.
