We love staying at Lumley castle. We try to find a new place to try each year for ours birthday but Lumley is our favourite and this was our 3rd visit. The rooms are clean and quiet and so comfortable. The staff have always been so nice and accommodating. The food is lovely and always cooked to perfection and the library bar is perfect for relaxation! We can’t await to come back and will be booking twice in 2025!

Very nice castle hotel and lovely to sit in the period lounge. It’s a slight maze to walk around, but that’s part of the charm. Cooked breakfast is made to order and it could include kippers for a small 3 GBP supplement . A great historic building and many bedrooms are in a converted courtyard attached to the Main castle building.

A treat that you will want to repeat.
A very interesting castle that houses beautifully prepared rooms, wonderful surroundings, excellent good and wonderful service. A treat that everyone with any sense or enjoyment of history will eat up. Very cheap and comfortable rooms with excellent facilities and a nice and quiet location. The Christmas decorations were also top notch.

Castle Suite is amazing, this room is so comfy and the castle so genuine, normally I walk around the historic castles but to call one home for a night is brilliant.
