"Dining on the terrace looking out over the lovely Shropshire hills was a lovely experience."
"We had a large room with small courtyard which was perfect."

“The Castle Hotel strikes me as a genuinely quirky retreat in Bishop's Castle, where the staff's attentiveness clearly shines. I noted some mentions of minor maintenance issues, but the local walks and cellar's ales seem to more than compensate. From what I gather, it's a solid base for exploring the Shropshire Hills, bath-in-bedroom quirks and all.”
