We had an excellent couple of nights and were able to spend time with our grandson who has just started at University. Last time we were staying there was for our sons wedding meal 20 years ago.
1 night with evening meal
Fabulous stay at Lumley castle with my husband, the whole place is very clean the staff were very attentive but not in your face The restaurant was calm and inviting and we both really enjoyed the food.
We only booked the 1 night but plan on returning and would look at a longer stay in future, overall great experience
60th Birthday Castle retreat
Fantastic stay from start to finish.
The room was a real treat with a four poster bed & narniaesque bathroom hidden through the wardrobe.
Prosecco & chocolates in the room on arrival was welcoming, with plenty of other little treats, chocolate, crisps, biscuits & plenty of tea, coffee etc.
The restaurant felt intimate with just the right amount of subdued lighting & the service was professional but friendly. The food was excellent.
The Castle had a real medieval feel with it's many original features but also the addition of modern day facilities.
The only criticism was the high price of the alcohol in both the bar & restaurant but as it was a special 60th birthday for Anne, we splashed out.
Would highly tecommend.
