    There was nothing we didn't like.

    This is such a friendly place to stay, it has a wonderful atmosphere and the family who live there and run it made us feel very welcome. The breakfast was delicious, there was gluten free cereal and toast which is always a bonus. We will definitely stay at Otterburn Castle again whenever we are in that area 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

    Absolutely nothing, cannot fault anything.

    This is a family run business and a family that care about their guests. Ellie and her son Alex were so welcoming and made us feel like one of the family. The castle is absolutely stunning and has so much character and charm. The food was outstanding, amazing menu choices, cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. The room is spacious and has everything you need and the bed was super comfy. We are already planning our next visit as this place is absolute perfection 👌

    We loved everything there was nothing to dislike.

    The character and charm of it. It was well cared for. The interior decoration and style suited the property. The fire in reception area made the property feel cosy and the fire in the lounge too.

    Internet access a bit hit and miss in the bedroom. This was known about before and in literature but excellent coverage in the main areas of the hotel.

    staying in an amazing castle with so much character and history. Staff lovely and great attention to detail and care for their guests.

    As we entered the foyer of the hotel..We were met by a lovely hot glowing fiřë! A lovely touch. Then the welcoming smiling faces of Alex and his Mum... the owners of the hotel ... Alex showed us to our room where I was pleasantly surprised by the size of it! Bed was lovely and comfy ... We ate in the restaurant and the food was delicious!! I'd highly recommend the salmon on a bed of beans. And the sticky toffee pudding! We had a lovely 2 night stay in this friendly relaxed beautiful castle in the countryside x ⁹

    We had a fantastic stay at Otterburn Castle. The hospitality was second to none. We will definitely be returning one day with our son as he would love to experience a stay in the castle! The bed was so comfy, probably the comfiest bed we’ve ever slept on! We had a gorgeous meal before we attended a wedding on the evening and the breakfast was faultless!

    Couldn't fault anything.

    The staff were so friendly and welcoming. We took our grandchild with us but had booked a double room as Booking.com only had an option of a family room for an extra £80. As we were taking our own travel cot this wasn't necessary. The reception staff were so good about this and made a fuss of our grandchild. We offered to pay for her breakfast but they wouldn't hear of it; said she could have whatever she wanted. The room was spacious and the bed comfy. The bathroom had nice toiletries. Breakfast was delicious. A good selection of cereals, juices etc and the cooked breakfast very enjoyable. The hotel is quirky set in lovely grounds. We'd stayed as attending a wedding close by so didn't get to try the restaurant unfortunately. The surrounding countryside was beautiful. A very pleasant stay.
