Comfortable stay and well connected

We booked this place on the understanding all accom would be of a high standard but on arrival we were relegated to rooms off the carpark which felt no better than a road side inn. It was very expensive for the level of accom we were given. None of the opulence of the castle accom was included in the rooms we were given. The whole point of staying in a place like this is for the history and the grandeur, none of which the carpark rooms offer. We asked the check-in clerk if we could be moved and expressed our displeasure with the accom. We were offered a refund which is helpful late on a Friday night after a full day of travel. At no point did anyone offer a way to turn such a negative experience into a positive one. When I said how much I had paid I was told I was lucky as it can be even more expensive! Also don’t book when a wedding is on as they take priority over all of the spaces. It was not possible to use a common area without the wedding party occupying it, including photos in the carpark! When we returned from dinner we were greeted with vomit through the carpark from the wedding guests. Perfect way to sum our stay up here. Never again!!

We booked this property in April 2026 thinking it was one house made up of one dwelling. We booked one night and after some deliberation we booked a second consecutive night separately believing it would be the same property. Upon arrival at the property we soon realized the house was divided into two separate residences, an east wing and a west wing. At no point did Black Sheep Hotels tell us that the property was made up of two residences and that we had in fact booked one night in each residence. During the morning following our first night we received very direct and bad communications from Black Sheep telling us in no uncertain terms that our behavior was unacceptable because we had not packed up our belongings and vacate the premise. At the time of receiving these communications we were on a train and unable to get to the house. Our belongings were packed up and moved to the residence in the other side of the house. We returned to the house later that day, packed up the car and left, as we were so upset with the way we had been treated It is unusual for us to leave any comments like this on expedia, but we feel strongly about the poor treatment we received from Black Sheep and our goal is to prevent this from happening to any other family in the future. Black Sheep Hotels need to do a better job of making clear that this property is two separate residences and let future visitors know if the have in fact booked both residences consecutively, whether by accident or not

Staff were friendly and gave us a good larger than expected room on arrival which was good. The hotwl is positioned in a very peaceful area. We had a room on the ground floor at the back so there was no road noise but lots of noise late at night when other guests were arriving to their rooms. Walls/floors are thin! The water coming out of the taps and toilet was yellow..not sure why. Bottles of yellow tap water were being served to customers. The menu was not to our taste far too much spicy food. I had to send the corn on the cob back as it was covered in spice. We were then brought a new plain one and were not charged which was good. Can't comment on the cooked breakfast as we only had fruit/continental options.

The bunk room was fun for the family. The bathrooms were divided for convenience and spotless. The entire facility was well- planned out and attractive. attractive

This place is just a notch above a hostel. Only difference is you have a private room and bathroom. One key per room, no matter how many people are in the room. Refrigerator is located in the management office which is locked up most of the evening. Microwave is in a bottom floor lounge that is locked clearly evening and not unlocked until 10am. TV in rooms only work for streaming if you have an account with the streaming service. No elevator/lift at all. They’ve put a lot of work into this place to make it a hotel and it looks good but it is lacking in amenities.

The hotel is very close to the busy center of town and right across the street from the river. The room was clean and had more than adequate space for two. The hotel did not provide shampoo, so bring some. The breakfast buffet was filling.
