Castle Of Comfort Reviews

Julia
A party of 13 adults and 2 dogs who all enjoyed their stay at The Castle of Comfort; a very quirky house that was more like staying in a hotel but having sole use. Parking is plentiful, there is much to see and do in the area - we would recommend, without reservation.
Lynda
A large very comfortable home which 10 of us enjoyed. The heated pool, hot tub and sauna were a fantastic addition. Property situated close to pubs which provide food .
Peter
A lovely house to relax in with delightful gardens, swimming pool, hot tub and sauna. Excellent location for exploring the area.
Valerie A
The garden is not totally dog proof so care has to be taken. The property is very spacious and has great extras. My family of 7 adults and 6 children ranging from 12 to 17, thoroughly enjoyed the games room and large field, where they played rounders, with a dip in the hot tub, and a sauna to end the day. There is lots of beautiful countryside to explore, either walking, cycling, or running. All the bedrooms have ensuites and are very nicely decorated. Although rooms 8 and 9 cannot be accessed from the main house, they may suit guests not wishing or unable to navigate the stairs and needing a ground floor room.
Mary-Anne
Beautiful and very comfortable accommodation for a large group where we could all eat at one table and be together in the sitting room.. Everything was decorated and maintained to a high standard inside and outside. A very memorable stay ...hope to return.
Ruth
What an amazing place to stay! The rooms were all immaculate and the large kitchen made cooking for our large family party really easy. Everything we needed was in the house. We loved the whole house and the hot tub and sauna were great additions. The location is beautiful and we will be back.
Sarah
