The Castle Hotel

We had lunch here after exploring the little town of Bishop’s Castle. It was a good choice as the menu was varied, food delicious and staff were very friendly and helpful. Two of us are vegetarians and there was plenty of choice for us. Lovely gardens too.

It’s been a while since I last visited the Castle Hotel for dinner and drinks. What a great experience. Excellent food. Very good range of real ales. Friendly and helpful staff. And a beer that is simply fabulous on a sunny evening. Very impressed by all aspects of my experience and strongly recommended for anyone visiting Bishop’s Castle.

A group of 14 stayed for dinner, bed and breakfast. The service was amazing throughout, including drinks in the lovely garden, pre dinner drinks and all of the meals. Everyone was pleased with the rooms. Can't recommend it enough will plan to go back again. Many thanks to all of the team involved in making it a great stay.

Stayed at the Castle several times with my husband and now as a widow I feel perfectly comfortable visiting on my own. Lovely room, great real ale and superb food both at dinner and breakfast. I particularly like the menu choice of a small dessert + coffee - just right when you fancy a little something but don't want to feel overfaced. Great to see well behaved dogs welcomed and even given a free sausage at breakfast!

We had a wonderful nights stay at The Castle Hotel. The staff were all very helpful and attentive. They recommended a great walk which we did. It has amazing views from the garden and a sheltered patio for those staying at the hotel. We were blessed with glorious weather so made the most of these. Would recommend if looking to stay in the area.

As soon as we walked in through the doors we were made to feel welcome. The hotel was very relaxed and all staff were really friendly. It was great to be able to take the dogs into both breakfast and dinner but there is a dining room where they are not allowed if you don’t like dogs. We were here for the weekend and ate in for breakfast and dinner - food was really good and good sized portions. Can recommend the mushroom omelette! We were in room 2 which had fabulous views over the hills in the distance and was a good sized room to accommodate us and our two spaniels. There is a really large garden with lots of seating which we took advantage of as the weather was excellent during our stay. There are lots of good walks from the hotel and route suggestions are provided by the hotel. We were made to feel very much at home - thank you!
