What an excellent place for breakfast. Having recently moved into the area I came here to try this with my daughter. I had the veggie breakfast and my daughter had the breakfast stack bagel. Both were extremely well presented and utterly delicious. The staff were all friendly and welcoming and the outside seating was fabulous with the sun shining even in mid September. So happy to have found our new breakfast out spot. We will be regulars.

Went here to stay & dine for one night. Had a voucher for part of the cost and so topped that up so it was more worthwhile and a treat. Fairly easy to get to although the town with all of its traffic lights etc made that bit really slow. Big grounds and big car parks (two – first one for park and second one for hotel). BUT….they charge £8 extra to park !!! It is quite offensive because hotel guests are paying good money. When you are spending £300, £400 or £500 for a night it really is an insult when they want to charge you even more to park your car somewhere which has 100’s of acres of space. It’s not as if it’s in a busy town centre where space is at a premium (and the vast majority of places which I know in those situations don’t make extra charges anyway). Not nice. It’s taking the wee. Maybe they (the council as it is council owned) think that if you can afford to spend that much for a nights stay then you can afford the extra which they want to squeeze out of you ? But that is not the point. It’s offensive. Check-in good and staff very good. Room on 1st floor good, view to front (the long drive) and central ‘courtyard’ where you walk in to reception. 4 poster, good mattress. BUT awful pillows. It had 4 pillows but all were the same being very thick and very firm. Now even ‘cheap’ places like Premier Inn provide 2 different types of pillow – 2 soft and 2 thick – so why cannot a luxury hotel do the same ? I had a really bad nights sleep (not much sleep at all) because I could not use any pillow so just put them on the floor. Not good. Bathroom was behind a bookcase which was quirky. All worked well – good shower and almost instant hot water which makes a change as many very old buildings struggle with water. Criticism ? Yes. No water in the room - oh come on !!! No glasses (except the 2 small ones in bathroom). Broken panes of glass which need replacing. They look very bad (I know it's a VERY old building but these are only 100mm x 100mm approx). Only one chair in a big room which will mostly have 2 people in it. Bar small, sadly not much choice at all (just one ale, two ciders and three lagers I think it was) but still OK/good. Very good bar staff. Several chairs but there are also chairs and small ‘snug’ seating areas dotted all around anyway. Restaurant was good. Not huge choice but enough. And good food. Waiting staff good and the lady (restaurant manager ?) was excellent. Efficient & friendly. So I was looking forward to breakfast. Breakfast – oh dear, unfortunately nothing like dinner !!! Small buffet (as in small, not a lot of choice – choices yes but I have seen much better/more variety in much smaller hotels which charge considerably less). In such a expensive and classy place I don’t expect a buffet and to have to queue and serve myself (fortunately it was quiet) but rather much prefer to choose from a menu and then have my breakfast cooked and brought to me. It’s part of being away. The hot selection was – mostly hot. Fried eggs kept under cover are NOT for me. Hash Browns (I hate the things but many like them), Sausages (pork, but very bland), back bacon (bit dry by 09.00), tomatoes, scrambled eggs (the best bit as they were hot and I think because that dish had been very recently topped up), baked beans (well, some that were left, you had to scrape the dish to get a spoonful and they were lukewarm) and then mushrooms, lots of mushrooms, but which were COLD. Yuk !! And what made breakfast even worse – a bit like the car parking rip-off – is that if you wanted poached eggs, boiled eggs etc then they charged an extra £4.95 !!! IT IS AN EXPENSIVE HOTEL & RESTAURANT WITH A CHEF for goodness sake. Again, this is, in my opinion (and that of a few others I spoke to so I am not alone) offensive. Check-out good. Told the chap of a few things in the room which needed attention and he actually wrote them down. Most places when you give information (to make it better for the next guests and the hotel) just listen and I actually doubt if much of the required remedial work is ever done. Not here. I think that they would act. So all in all a bit mixed. Great building and good grounds. But as a hotel & restaurant, for what they charge it should be a lot better. I would not rush back and could not recommend it 'highly' as such but I would simply be honest and say it’s good but…………….

Had the most amazing Jacket potato with cheesy leeks and bacon here a few months back. Could not wait to come and have it again. Sorry to say very disappointed today. Could not taste any cheese in the cheesy leeks and the portion of bacon vastly reduced. All in all very bland and tasteless.

6 of us arrived for dinner tonight to celebrate my moms 86th birthday.From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we could not fault the service provided. The ladies were very attentive without being intrusive. The food was wonderful. Mom who normally eats like a bird ate more tonight than I have seen her eat in a long time. She chose the steak and chicken which was cooked to perfection. Mom likes her steak rare and it was perfect and she said the chicken was lovely and moist so she ate almost all of it. The children loved their food too will definitely be back

We have visited the Rose & Castle on many occasions and always had a great experiece both food and with customer service . The gentleman that is normally front of house and the reason I am sure you get repeat custom was not in this evening . The visit today also a birthday celebration was totally the reverse, the lady front of house, we felt was quite rude and couldn’t wait for us to leave . At 9:45pm we were told that they were shutting even though we still had drinks to finish. Such a shame to have had such a poor experience
