Our stay at the castle was fabulous. The staff were excellent to deal with and the facilities are stunning. The kitchen is well equipped and we were pleasantly surprised to have access to launry facilities. The room was nicely finished and very large. I highly recommend the Muncaster Castle and our only regret was not budgeting enough time to fully enjoy all that is available.

We were sitting on the bench outside of our room and the lady who worked in the ticket collection place, driving a blue svu, almost parked her car on top of our laps. The staff should be more considerate.

Loved being able to enjoy the gardens and the fantastic work the young people did with the owls and the raptors. We wished we had had the basket breakfast every day having tried it on our last day.

ovely location , functional and clean.

A lovely location and a pleasant welcome . Clean and functional, though in need of some refurbishment . If you want luxury in the grounds of a castle, this is not for you - but if you want a no nonsense place to enjoy walks straight from the door, and be in some beautiful grounds, then it’s ideal . Breakfast could be served in the sister hotel , a drive of 5 mins or a 30 min walk, or a ( adequate but a little unusual ) pack up left outside your door , or you could take your own and use the extensive available on site kitchen , which we would definitely do next time .

Very comfortable, clean and tidy. Just a bit dated and basic. We also opted for the breakfast pack, which was delivered the next morning and was very generous for the price.

Good family break

Despite arriving to check in within the times stated, we experienced a delay. We were told intially 15 minutes though after waiting more than half an hour we asked again, and experienced a further short delay. That said we enjoyed our break and would return. We would advise anyone to book bed and breakfast. The breakfast provided in the cafe was up there with the best ive had anywhere. All was delicious and freshly cooked, with a friendly welcome. The accommodation facilities were perfect for a small family and gave us the chance to arrive prepared and organise an evening meal.

Owls, views and history.

Basic but clean accommodation. The room was reasonably comfortable but a bit tatty. Staff were friendly and helpful but check-in was not as smooth as it could be. Breakfast in the stable yard cafe next door was good. What sets this accommodation apart is the fact that it's sited within the castle grounds and you have free rein when the castle is closed to visitors. The price of the accommodation also includes entry to the castle grounds during the day, includeing the owl, hawk and falconry displays, which are fantastic. My wife and I recommend the Coachman's Quarters and we'll be returning in the Spring.

Muncaster Castle

Amazing surroundings within the castle grounds Stayed in the coachman’s quarters . Clean, comfortable room with tea and coffee provided. Breakfast in the Old Stables was very good with cereal and fruit juice and hot breakfast cooked to order. Fantastic views from the terrace which we had access to before and after the visiting public. Fascinating insight into birds of prey and a fantastic display with owls and hawks. The castle itself is still lived in and furnishings , art work and exhibits open to public .Accompanying ghost stories added atmosphere to the evening stroll in the gardens . Couple of nice pubs serving food in Ravenglass which is a couple of minutes drive or half hour walk .Would definitely stay again .

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We loved the beautiful grounds and the kid-friendliness of the whole experience. My grandson was so enamored with the owls, we had to stay late the next day so he could see the owl show again. I love what they are doing to help birds of prey!
