The Horseshoe and Castle was great, the staff were very friendly, approachable and accomdating. The entire pub and room was extremely clean, such a little gem. We were attending a wedding in Cooling Castle Barn so this place was a fantastic and ideal place to stay. The host apologised for the noise (as building work was being finisbed off) when we went down to breakfast. However, we had not heard any noise. But it was lovely that they apologised incase we had.

Our room was comfortable, homely and spotlessly clean - the lovely welcome basket on arrival was a particularly nice touch! Breakfast was included in our stay and was excellent (would recommend the full English!). Staff were very friendly and helpful. We felt very welcome and having access to the property to come and go as we needed was very useful when visiting family nearby.

The location was perfect for our purpose , the bar and restaurant were very period and quirky . The staff were all very polite and efficient nothing was too much trouble giving us a relaxed and enjoyable stay . Finally , our breakfasts were cooked and served to perfection , we would definitely come again and bring friends to sample the evening menu and ales .

The friendly helpful staff, really interesting decorations/ornaments, a really nice traditional pub/inn, the food was delicious, I haven’t had a steak like that in years, my wife had the fillet, and I had the rump. The rump was amazing, and of course the fillet was great. The room was great, breakfast was lovely, a really nice stay.

Firstly our room was nice and big, the bed was super comfy and the staff provided extra pillows which was nice. The breakfast was SO yummy genuinely the best scrambled eggs my partner and I have ever had. We loved the quirky ‘cabinet of curiosities’ vibe of the establishment.
