Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn once walked these rooms and grounds. Today, the 500 year-old castle-palace with its beautiful oriel windows, Tudor hall and historic parkland is yours for a time ? a wonderful retreat from everyday routine and also a memorable setting for formal functions such as weddings, celebrations and conferences. All rooms are luxuriously warm - most have real fires. They're also extremely comfortable with opulent, well-appointed bathrooms, colour TVs (carefully screened, of course) and welcoming touches such as the decanter of sherry you'll find on your arrival. Step behind the heavy oak doors and you'll find a magnificent hotel with roaring fires, delicious modern cuisine and sumptuous bedchambers ? a truly special setting for an overnight stay, a weekend away or for more formal occasions.

This hotel was absolutely amazing- the nicest i've ever stayed in. The staff couldn't have been nicer, the location was stunning, the food was wonderful. We're definitely going to go back as soon as we can.

Faultless. A real castle (Henry VIII) with all the atmosphere and with none of the feeling of Disney or Kitsch, and no feeling of trying to extract every penny from you. Room seriously atmospheric without being primitive; fantastic location. Dinner expensive but not eye-watering. A wonderful place to stay.

nice room. Liked to gas fire in the big fireplace. Little touches like radio playing classical music on entry and complimentary sherry in the room. Dinner & drinks very expensive (£50 for dinner, wine at least £30 a bottle Dec 2007), knew that before going. I liked the tudor feel to the place - furniture, windows, tapestries on the walls etc.
