Langley Castle Hotel

Langley Castle Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"A fabulous experience for my husband and I treating our 11 year old great nephew to an exciting stay in a real Castle. Staff were wonderful from Reception check in, greeters and Restaurant staff to Reception check out. We experienced the added excitement of a Langley Castle tour learning more about history along with rooftop visit to Chapel and wonderful views. Excellent."

Keswick Country House Hotel

8/10 Good
"Very quaint hotel. Felt like we were staying in a bit of history. Very nice bar and grounds. Keswick is a neat area, with lots of shops and restaurants. Only complaint: the biggest freaking spider I’ve even seen decided to take up residence in the bathroom. Fortunately it was the last day, so we let him have it."
