Gerry was very welcoming, as was her lovely cat. Barn House was a lovely place to stay, plenty of space, very clean. Breakfast was very good food; it included wonderful homemade bread, jam, marmalade and apple juice. One of those memorable places to stay, in a very good way. We are very keen to return.

    It is perfect for a quiet getaway.

    It is perfect for a quiet getaway. Small but interesting town, with tons of good walks to do all around the area. It is worth going for a visit if only to spend several magical hours inside the wonders of the Poetry Pharmacy - but sshhhhh don't tell anybody! Plenty of good eateries - for fab home-made soup, the Bap (if its their birthday when you go, you get free cake!). In the evening the Tuns pub does excellent food - and beer if that is what you are into!

    Lovely small town. Steep streets.

    Lovely small town. Steep streets. Quiet (at the time we were there, March). Many pubs to choose from. Not many general shops, but lots of places to buy greetings cards. We ate at the Ganges restaurant and The Three Tuns pub, both recommended, but best to book. Very limited places to eat on a Sunday evening.

    Was there on the Date of the Michaelmas Fair which was cancelled because of the passing of the Queen but there were still stalls and traction engines to see. Pubs and restaurants were open so plenty to do and see.

    Great town to wander in.

    Great town to wander in. We went for an 8 mile walk from Bishops castle. The Indian Restaurant and local pubs are to a good standard, we ate at 3 of them. Guided walk by locals every Tuesday and Saturday in the Summer at 6-30pm.

    Stopped for one night but could have stayed longer. The restaurant in the hotel served lovely fresh food. Bishops castle is only a small village but has plenty of history. Look out for the elephants!

    A small town I'm ashamed to say I had never heard of, but which offered a variety of interesting shops and tea rooms and other services. A very good base to explore the surrounding hills and even further afield.

    A beautiful retreat decorated in a lovely boho style. Entry is through a tiny courtyard and glazed sliding doors. It is comfortable and spacious with a well equipped kitchen, including oven and induction hob. Up the staircase is a large attic bedroom with exposed wood beams, large window, and comfy double bed. Situated on the edge of Bishops Castle, there is free parking on site and fabulous views across open countryside. Although only 5 minutes walk to the town centre, the town is set on steep hills.

    Lovely location in the Centre of Bishop's Castle. Gerry was extremely helpful and welcoming. We really appreciated the love and care put into the breakfasts, home made bread and marmalade and locally sourced delicious sausages and bacon. Delicious. Great local recommendations, the Castle Hotel is a very short distance and does an excellent Sunday Roast and good beer too. Gerry couldn't have done more to make us feel welcome and at home

    Breakfast was good, high quality food, with a very quick service. The host made us feel welcome at all times and was only a phone call away if we needed anything at all. The building is very old and absolutely stunning architecturally with its original beams, doors and windows. There is on street parking around Bishops Castle, and its free.

    This is a nicely decorated cottage - it has all facilities eg washing machines, dish washer, internet, multi channel TV. It is dog friendly. It is a quiet hamlet with farms close by, local church, easy to get to Bishops Castle and Craven Arms for shops pub’s restaurants. The owners are very pleasant and leave you to your own devices.

    The breakfast and evening meal were both delicious. The staff were all very polite, friendly and helpful. The outside patio and garden area at the rear is very large with lovely views. We have been visiting the area on and off for 40 years and this was our first stay at the Castle Hotel and hopefully not our last.

    Gerry was an excellent hostess, thoughtful, generous and kind and nothing was too much trouble. The hotel was welcoming and the accommodation and facilities were very good. Breakfast was excellent and substantial, we did not eat again until late evening. We would thoroughly recommend a stay at this hotel.

    Breakfast not included. Good location on the high street. Parking just around the corner. A good base if you are on a family holiday I would have thought. Bishops Castle was very pleasant, especially the gardens up at the back of the Castle Hotel.

    The novelty of having an entire pub to yourself makes this an unforgettable gateway. Spacious, well equipped yet homely. Dishwashers, ice machines, pool table, karaoke, hot tub….. they’ve thought of it all. Highly recommended! AND dog friendly!
