"We stayed for one night 13th June 2026 (wish it had been more!) From the outset our stay was first rate.. Peter the house manager checked us in and showed us to our room which was pretty amazing and had a view of the castle and moat. Then we were free to have a wander and see more of the castle. The whole place was mesmerising. The rooms were astounding. We met Sally the owner who told us some more details about the castle and its history. Sally makes you feel at ease (and at home!!) immediately. She has a gift for that. The dining experience was unforgettable. Peter played the piano sweeping up and down the keyboard playing anything from Chopin to Sting and creating a very soothing and relaxing ambience. The food was delicious and served with precision and humour by Sally .The guests mingled and we made friends with the German and Swiss group we had met in the bar earlier. After dinner .I was encouraged by Sally to play the piano while Peter was serving wine! We ended up having a most enjoyable and fun musical evening . Who needs television?? . One of our new-found German friends sang to my piano accompaniment and the whole atmosphere was convivial and just genuine good fun. .To round off the evening Peter took us all into the bar and told us all about the castle .As well as serious historical facts his history lesson was peppered with little anecdotes and jokes from almost every era!. And all done without any notes. Bravo Peter! The only criticism I would have is that he needs to speak more loudly and clearly because apart from my husband and I the other guests were all speakers of English as a Second Language. Sometimes we could not catch what he said but remembering all that material must have been quite a feat. He was willing to repeat it when asked though. Our stay was authentic and far exceeded our expectations We exchanged contact details with our German and Swiss friends and after breakfast next day continued on our travels refreshed and relaxed and with great memories.. We highly recommend a stay at Appleby Castle. It is a historical oasis which takes you back in time and away from the stresses and strains of modern life!! We would also like to thank the wonderful cook who worked hard behind the scenes producing all the wonderful food that Sally brought to our tables."

"Stop over on way back from Scotland. Lovely big, clean room overlooking garden and field of sheep. Lovely cooked breakfast. Short walk to Royal Oak for good food or into vilage itself which is very pretty. Would stay again as lots of walks nearby."

"El hotel está bienvenido, encantado y tradicionalmente bienvenido. Cama confortable, todo lo que necesitas. Buen desayuno, perfecto para atrapar el tren. Vale la pena el precio de mi estancia de una noche, y qué es un encantador pueblo Appleby."

"El hotel está situado en el centro de la ciudad, en el centro de la ciudad, en el centro de la ciudad, en el centro de la ciudad, en el centro de la ciudad, en el centro de la ciudad, en el centro de la ciudad, en el centro de la ciudad, en el centro de la ciudad, en el centro de la"

"La habitación de la habitación era muy agradable, pero no se podía encontrar en el hotel. El masaje de la espalda y el cuello, el masaje facial y el masaje de la cabeza fueron los mejores que hemos tenido y hemos estado en muchos lugares para poder comparar. El almuerzo y el servicio fueron perfectos. Si podíamos dar 6 estrellas nos gustaría. ¡Somos muy fussy y le recomendaremos a todos, una experiencia maravillosa!"
