Weekend luxury
An ideal place for a relaxing break. Everything about Lumley Castle was very good.
Romantic and luxury birthday treat stay
I booked the deal for prosecco, chocolates and an evening meal in a castle state room. Sure it wasn't cheap, but I felt it was well worth it just to see how happy my partner was.
We got room 49, which has a bathroom hidden through the wardrobe! Very Narniaesque and a lovely surprise. The room was plenty big enough and the four poster was gorgeous, comfortable and perfect.
The room had tea / coffee equipment along with a Nespresso machine too.
The provided prosecco and chocolates really added to the luxury.
The evening meal was brilliant, my partner had the beef and it just melted in the mouth. I had the lamb, which was a little tough, but the overall dish was excellent. Desserts were good, but not amazing.
Breakfast was absolutely bang on.
The staff were super friendly, efficient and not stuffy at all.
Bar prices were not as high as I expected, 6.50 for a pint level.
I would definitely return.
