Not a luxury stay.

DB, Lincolnshire, stayed: March 2022

We booked a castle state room for a special anniversary. The room was very dark and although nice, didn't live up to luxury tag. The first night we ate in the dining room, even with additional lighting, our table was so dark that my wife couldn't see to eat her meal adequately. So although the food was good, the experience was not. On the second night, after an argument, we were seated at a better lit table. The meal was delicious. The breakfast next morning was not so good. The grapefruit juice was watered down, the orange segments had obviously been left out too long and did not taste good. The "freshly baked pastry basket" was not freshly baked and there was no selection.The fried English contained only one each of sausage, bacon, mushroom, egg and hash brown. The sausage was not good quality and the hash brown was swimming in oil.The French toast was only just warm. The best part of the stay were the the staff. Everyone was friendly and extra helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. Overall our 2 night stay was okay, but not luxurious and not worth the money. Put brighter bulbs in all of the lights.
