I stayed at the castle with family before and returned for my 50th birthday. it was fantastic. Everything was thought of.there was blocks and firelogs,electric blankets, cosy blankets in the sitting room to cosy up by the fire.the kitchen had every utensil we needed to cook a lovely roast dinner .the heating was on for our arrival . The loop walk at freshford was beautiful even in the rain.just long enough to work up the appetite. Phyllida was a text away if any problems. We loved it. The character of the place is like a different world. You could just park up and not move until home time if you wished. We'll definitely go back.
