An experience I won’t forget anytime soon! Absolutely loved staying at Appleby Castle. What an amazing experience I will never forget. We will definitely be returning with our children. We were at a wedding locally but would have loved to spend more time in the castle than we did. Pete and Sally were lovely and extremely welcoming they went above and beyond for us can’t fault them at all. Breakfast was lovely, really enjoyed it. Prices are very reasonable. It’s so disappointing to see some of the reviews left on here. Do people forget they are staying in an 950year old castle?! Of course some of the floors are uneven etc this added to the quirkiness. It’s a 950 year old castle, please never modernise. See you soon (hopefully) Sally and Pete. Thank you again for a lovely stay!

The Hotel

Situated just 15 miles from the English Lake District and deep in the heart of the Eden Valley, Appleby Castle is a motte and bailey residence that has been held by the Kings of England and Scotland. In the 17th century, the Castle was the preferred residence of Lady Anne Clifford, a patron of authors and literature. It also boasts one of the few remaining intact Norman keeps.

Guests staying at the Castle can enjoy spacious rooms, some equipped with four-poster 17th-century beds as well as en suite or separate bathrooms. Facilities include a great hall, games room, and a tennis court. Appleby Castle guests have the right to fish on both sides of the River Eden immediately beneath the weir.

Groupon's Guide To Cumbria

Set in North West England, Cumbria is a non-metropolitan county and its elevated mountain ranges make it one of the most sparsely populated counties in the United Kingdom.

Cumbria is home to the Lake District National Park, famous for its natural beauty and source of inspiration for artists, musicians, and writers. The historic Hadrian's Wall is also located in this county and is deemed a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The ancient market town of Appleby-in-Westmorland has kept its old-world charm. A walk up the picturesque quaint street of Boroughgate, described as 'one of the finest in England', can transport you back into Medieval England, and for those looking to explore the nearby region, Appleby makes the perfect base. To the west of Appleby is the Lake District whose northern and central lakes are within easy reach. To the east lie the North Pennines an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Yorkshire Dales, Hadrian's Wall, and the Scottish borders are all within an hour's drive.

Genuine review, take notice. We had been looking forward to this stay as it was our engagement celebrations. I wish we had fully read the reviews prior to booking as on arrival it was badly sign posted and when we finally found the entrance it was all in darkness and locked up despite being 3.10pm after check in time. From the outside we could see the bedroom curtains hanging off the poles and the whole place looked tirrd and unwelcoming. We contacted the manager who informed me without apology he was not there and would be 10 minutes. We waited a further 20 minutes and he eventually arrived. He was again unapologetic and said we didnt have to stay which was really shocking and quite intimidating. We cant comment on the rooms as we never set foot in the building but the whole experience was extremely upsetting. Never again! This is a genuine review.

Quirky faded grandeur This is a very old grade 1 listed castle that from the outside is looking it's age. Inside is how one might imagine a castle to be with grand staircases, long corridors, large oak panelled rooms and shuttered windows. Our room was in the old servant's floor, the floor was on an incline but was simply furnished, warm and comfortable with a modern en-suite shower room. The small staff team, of necessity, have to multitask and so things (like check-in) happen at a slow pace and guests need to be patient. The dining room has two long tables, a few smaller tables and subdued lighting. The menu is varied but rather expensive although the meal itself was well cooked, nicely presented and tasty. There is much to like about Appleby Castle it is quirky (by the owner's admission) and the staff team are working hard to make it a success. However, there is a need for investment to improve the exterior of the castle, grounds and organisation.
