Today, the Castle lives at peace with its turbulent past, but preserves an atmosphere of ancient tradition.

The Chapman family have been running the hotel for 55 years, and in that time it has acquired a worldwide reputation for the warmth of its hospitality.

The Castle takes great pride in adding final touches to your stay whether you want extra pampering or to explore the countryside.
