"Just fantastic! Do note that though it is a true castle, not all the rooms are in the castle, so do check if you are staying in the castle or what is the rooms called Castle View. I believe they were a long time ago the servant quarters, BUT don't let this dissuade from staying here. IT IS A CASTLE! The staff was extremely polite and funny. There are peacocks you can hand feed snacks, but check with the staff what the peacocks will eat. The restaurant is fantastic, but be aware the menu is limited, but they try to make accommodations if you have any dietary restrictions. There is a tour of the castle, but we didn't take it, though you can go up to near the top of the castle, but not outside. The area around the castle is straight out of a novel with farms and sheep. It is THE English countryside. Hadrian's Wall is about 20 minutes from the castle, but you will need to drive there or get transportation. We are glad this stay was towards the end of our trip, though we did have to drive 300 miles from London by car to get there. It was well worth it."
