Staying near a castle was fun and in the gate house was neat. There was a musty smell that I was a bit put off by but the whole building was so fun it was overlooked. We toured the castle grounds and enjoyed the beautiful flowers, trees and the chickens and peacock. We wished we had known there was only one restaurant and reservations were needed but the take away was a new experience and the food was acceptable. The small town is quaint and the people we had contact with were pleasant. We spent one night and the beds were clean and comfortable and the shower warm and functional.
