I have refrained from reviewing Le Vieux Pontl for several years in the hope that it remains just as it is! We've stayed here many times, in spring, in high summer and in the autumn and it has always delivered impeccable food, wine, service in such wonderful surroundings. It really is one of perfect places that you want to keep... More

My wife and I stumbled on Belcastle on a wet day in September 2012. As we drove in we realised we had found something special. Beautiful stone buildings spreading up the sides of the valley and the chateau overlooking the whole area. In the bottom was the river/creek with beautiful grassy picnic areas available. Crossing the river was an old... More

The hotel is just gorgeous, set on the bank of a river the sound of running water is a lovely backdrop. The room was very modern, clean and spacious. There was a mini bar, with room in the fridge for your own things if needed. The bed was comfortable the bathroom well appointed. We ate in the restuarant, which is... More

The 15th century bridge is amazing and there is a great charm about the place. The restaurant at the hotel is expensive but... More

from the moment we crossed the "vieux pont" to the hotel we were entranced by this place. The village is amazing, the restored chateau is a must visit, the tiny hotel and its riverside garden are perfect. The degustation meal while not cheap was a memorable and unique experience

We stayed one night in August 2011. This is an ideal location in modern accommodation overlooking the river and the old bridge with the main village on the other side of the water. Pleasant service at breakfast.
