We travel to appleby castle as often as possibly we luv the company of sally and her staff. It will be a shame for the castle to be sold its so relaxing and the staff are down to earth which is what we like as a group.

This is beautiful castle, worth staying just as an experience. Food is not the best, I would expect but more, but exceptional.

This was an amazing place to stay, very authentic and beautiful. Our room had an updated bathroom, but even though the floor was slanted it was beautiful and comfortable. Craig is not only polite and courteous, but is an excellent cook. Peter played Piano through dinner after taking our dinner order. They both were accommodating worked to make our stay comfortable

We traveled two weeks in Scotland and Appleby Castle had by far the most delicious dinner. Staff was small but worked hard and swift. Castle was cozy and true to its heritage.

This place is awesome. Bit of a time warp, bit tired, but if they fixed it they would ruin it. It something out of a TV series, staff are great. its not a luxury setup, but defiantly an experience well worth having and in a lovely setting. will be back

A wonderfully atmospheric place to stay. If you have any feeling for historical surroundings you will enjoy your stay. The food was excellent (dinner and breakfast), the room was excellent, and the service excellent.

Appleby Castle is filled with history -- so much fun and great portraits on the walls. Wonderful tapestries on the walls of the bedroom we stayed in. The staff went out of their way to be helpful.

Staying for a night is an amazing experience. Place very old and smells like old place. Bed very comfortable 11/10. Clean bathroom in the room. Breakfast not recommended. I didn't dinning there. I will strongly recommend that hotel anyway for memories. Owl's sounds behind the window. Millions stars on night Sky. Place where you can touch old furnitures.

It was absolutely delightful. If you are looking for an authentic castle experience this is the place. The 5 course dinner was delicious. The staff so helpful. The whole ambience led to an old world experience. Loved it

We stayed in one of the cottages which was very comfortable and spacious but the highlight that it was such a majestic setting. The castle is also very conveniently located for walking into the centre of Appleby.

Just what we were looking for in a 'castle experience'. Service and food was excellent. Easy walk into town.

Authentic quasi-medieval property in an excellent location, being slowly brought back to life. Like all old properties, modernisation is a slow and expensive process. Power points in our bedroom were few and located at just above floor level.

Excellent property, historically amazing. Staying there was a treat. I stayed in the old servant quarters, very quaint. I will return to visit the Norman keep.

This was a beautiful castle and easy to find a short walk to the town center. The staff was very kind and attentive and the owner took time to speak with us about the history. Well worth a stay.
