Perfection!

Stanshope Hall is an absolute gem. We could not have had a more wonderful stay. The whole experience was first class - from the location, to the welcoming pot of tea with homemade biscuits on arrival, to the most tasteful accommodation and the heartiest breakfasts that kept us going all day. It was all completely perfect and we would certainly go back again.

A beautiful gift to receive - a night in a Castle !

We loved our visit to the Castle for my birthday - we had a champagne afternoon tea, a lovely dinner and then somehow fitted in breakfast too. A fantastic castle and grounds. My opportunity to be a princess for a day !

Beautiful location with stunning views

I bought this gift for my boyfriend for Christmas and we chose this week as it was our year anniversary. We booked it with the voucher I had and booked to have breakfast as well. We arrived and given our keys straight away. We went up to our room and although could do with a bit of a refurbishment was lovely enough. It was spacious and bright with a lovely view of the river. Water pressure was a bit low but again it was lovely soft water in comparison to our hard water. We had plenty of tea and coffee and water. Breakfast was lovely and included continental and cooked so we had so much to fill us. Staff were so lovely and we felt well looked after. Thank you Royal Lodge for a wonderful couple of days away. We will be back!

Perfect Birthday Treat

I brought this experience for my husband’s 50th Birthday surprise. We had a fabulous stay, the staff were exceptional & really stand out, especially the restaurant manager (Ruby I think) who went above & beyond to ensure we had a wonderful evening, she is such an asset to the restaurant. Our food was delicious, wine was good & service impeccable. Our room was ok, we were hoping to be in the main building, it were in the Priory which is a separate building, the room needed a little TLC, especially in the bathroom, it was overall clean & comfortable with a beautiful window seat. We had a lovely stay.
