Ruthin Castle Hotel embodies Ancient History, Elegance and Comfort

Great location. Ruthin Castle is a hidden gem, tucked into a corner of the historic town of Ruthin. Access through an old brick archway with sweeping drive leading to car park and impressive reception area where a warm welcome awaits.
Surrounded by parkland with wonderful views of the Clwydian Range.
Ruthin Castle embodies History, Elegance, Atmospheric Decor and Comfort.

Pros:

Quirky and really different, staff were great, lovely grounds to walk around

Cons:

Evening meal was a disappointment, lots of items are the menu not available as none left. Also pointless paying for half board, as you can only have £30 each for meal and lots of it not available.
