Bucket list wish for my daughter who loves history, unfortunately only here one night but we made the most of it. Explored the castle and gardens even in the rain. Breakfast was exceptional.

Staying at the castle was a unique experience. We especially loved the gardens and the fact that so much of the food served was grown right there. Highly recommend Thornbury Castle!

4/10 Fair

Luxury price-not a luxury experience
We paid almost $1000 for 2 nights and received a very small room with small bathroom and no counter space. The room was pretty but still very small. There was a bug in the bathroom once. The worst was that it was extremely hot in the room to the point we could not sleep and were sweating in the room. It was over 80 F in the room. We spoke to hotel staff who were polite but did not do anything nor offer any partial refund. Hotels.com also did nothing. Luxury price but not a luxury experience at all
