Chillingham Castle was, until recently, a derelict property with neither roofs or floors. I remember as a child sneaking into the grounds and being amazed by the Castle, A time capsual gently erroding. Trees growing through rooms, floors collapsed but at the same time still in touch with 800 years of history. I moved down South and forgot about Chillingham... more

my husband,sister,brother-in-law and i have stayed at chillingham castle five times in the past 18 months and on every occasion we have really loved it. The reason we visited chillingham is because of its historic background and its haunting atmosphere.

Chillingham castle is a great place to stay for a nice break. It is one of the most haunted castles in England and it feels very spooky, the second night I heard footsteps on the stairs leading up from the bedroom to the lounge area.

There is a reason why The Stable was not pictured online, because it was painted four different shades of pink, had garage sale picked furniture, mold growing in the guest book, and dead insects in the sink! Not only that, but it had a terrible smell.... more

Me and my family stayed twice at Chillingham Castle. In Jan 04 and Jan 06. I don’t think anyone can expect to find high standard, modern furnitured, completely renovated hotel there, because it is a castle. And it is great that in Chillingham you can experience medieval atmosphere. To my opinion the in-suit shower there should be considered as complimentary... more

A reservation was made and a deposit paid. Weeks before our departure from Australia ( months after the booking... more

Dreadful place, damp and cold, supposed to be self catering, but, luckily we only stayed the night as the facilities were awful. It was supposed to be haunted, perhaps it was, but, nothing that a bit of heating would not have cured. The furniture and beds must have come from the local house clearance depot, they were "old furniishing" in... more
