Castle of ParkThis beautifully restored castle, dating from the 16th century, but with all modern comforts, offers warm and welcoming hospitality to groups of fishermen (and their wives). Minimum group size: 6. Great food, elegant bedrooms all with private bath/shower rooms (two four-poster suites), fully licensed. Full CH, roaring log fire in the Georgian Drawing room.
Here's a comment from a recent American guest: "The castle we stayed in was fabulous. Fire in the hearth, gorgeous four-poster bed, big tub and a big Scotch waiting for me before dinner. The people who own the place were wonderful and accommodating." Contact Lois Breckon on 01466 751111 |
