We stayed at The Retreat for two nights and it was a really lovely weekend. There was a warm welcome from Jude on our arrival and were directed to Room 7. The room was a really good size and a nice sized separate bathroom too. The room had a four poster bed and lots of old pictures and different shapes... More

Just back from staying at The Retreat Castle - what a truly special place. The rooms were gorgeous (loved the angels!) and spotlessly clean. Had everything you could need. The owners were very friendly and attentive. What more could you ask for? Wished we had been able to stay longer.

If you are bored of staying in clinical, boring hotels with no character then this is the place for you. This place is a little castle set back from the road and when you walk through the doors you feel like you have stepped back into medieval times. The mixture of original features, props, pictures and squeaky floorboards mixed with... More

We stayed in the Retreat Castle by default as we had booked a room via late rooms however when we turned up the owner advised she was not open until May. We then drove round and found this absolute treasure and have to say it was a million times better than the place we had booked on late rooms. From... More

Got a great deal on this place for b&b on Easter weekend. We heard about this place from a friend who recommended we stay there and we were certainly not disappointed. This place is really special. You must go experience it! On arrival we got upgraded to a very big and beautiful room with a four poster bed. We were... More

Having worked in the service industry for the past seven years, I find it easy to get jaded and pick holes when I visit a hotel. Well, this place is a true labour of love, and I can't compliment it highly enough. Jude (the owner) is charming, and really takes pride in making every effort to please her guests. We... More

I stayed here for a couple of nights this week during a business trip and I have to say I wasn’t disappointed! If going back in time is your thing, cleanliness and first class service is at the top of your list, then look no further! My room (2) was spacious, exceptionally clean, well equipped with TV and the usual... More

We spent one night at the Retreat and thoroughly enjoyed it. Jude was lovely when I made the booking and her welcome and hospitality when we arrived was second to none. The hotel has recently changed to guest house status so was just run by Jude and her husband. We were thrilled with the welcome we received and the service... More

Due to a last minute change of plans, I needed to find a room for 3 nights that was reasonably close to the airport for an early flight, and had wi-fi so that my husband could access the internet from his work computer.
