Wolfscastle Country Hotel

This is our second visit to the Wolfscastle Country Hotel. On both occasions we have been delighted with the service, the friendliness of the staff, the cleanliness of the rooms and the quality of the food in the restaurant. We highly recommend the Wolfscastle Country Hotel and look forward to staying there in the near future. One observation - With the ever increasing numbers of electric vehicles on the road and EV charger would be very helpful.

We came to use the Restaurant as I had eaten here last year on a spa day and had the best need burger I'd ever had. We were nearby and checked online to book a table but it said there wasn't any for nearly 2 hours. Luckily we called to check and they said to come in..no need to book. We arrived and I explained we had come for the best beef burgers! A few minutes later the lady returned and said unfortunately the burgers were not on the menu today so would we mind reordering. It wasn't a huge issue and they then offered us a complimentary starter so we had the duck balls which were amazing. We ordered the minute steak and fish and chips and it was all delicious! Would highly recommend eating here as the food was divine, the staff where fantastic and it was just a lovely place to eat!

I got married here in 2023 and Lowri couldn’t do enough for us, to the point my family were complimenting her on the special day. Before we got married we had been for food several times and it has always been amazing. The hotel overall is 5 stars in my opinion, from the staff to the food to even the room we stayed in, I just need to try out the spa now! Thank you to all of the staff here, I would definitely recommend to any newly engaged couples!!

This hotel has an excellent standard. The beds are divine ! Homely comfortable clean and the most fabulous restaurant. The spa only had jacuzzi and sauna but when you book you get facilities to yourself which are also outside. I use spa a lot and this was great. Rates are good for the quality you get.

We visited here for our Golden Wedding Anniversary and honestly I cannot understand how they do not have a Michellin star - or two! We had the fine dining experience from chef Seb and it was magnificent. We always go somewhere good for our anniversary but this beat the last few places we have been out of a cocked hat - that includes The Whitebrook, The Hardwick and The Walnut Tree - all of which are good but nowhere near this standard. (though to be fair the Whitebrook used to be) We were treated like royalty - the service was outstanding. We started with canapes of beetroot arancini and duck parfait profiteroles, both wonderful. Then there was some artisan bread with flavoured butter followed by an amuse bouche (photo below). The starters were both amazing - I had scallops with some sort of chicken ball - with extra touches like cauli puree and micro herbs - my husband had pigeon done three ways and it was sublime. For the main I had surf n turf - a lobster tail with filet of beef with mini cauli and brocolli - to be honest I cannot remember all the details clearly as I think my mind was blown by this point. My husband had halibut with pigs cheek and fondant celeriac (photo below). The pre desert was wonderfully tasty and I dont have a sweet tooth - lemon posset with a rhubard icecream and some sort of white chocolate rocks. Then my huband had the trio of chocolat which he loved while I had the most incredible cheese board. As if that wasn't enough the meal ended with petit fours on a board wishing us Happy Anniversary. This was bar far the best meal since we had the 9 course taster menu in Hibiscus when it was still in Ludlow nearly 20 years ago. All this paired with really good wine and wonderful service from our dedicated waitress, Seren. The room and breakfast were pretty good too! I cannot wait to go back again and hopefully by then someone will have nominated them for a MIchellin star!

Fine dining taster evening to celebrate my parents Ruby Aniversary, at the same venue they held their original wedding reception some 40 years ago. We were the only diners this evening, so were made to feel extra special, and had the full attention of our lovely young waitress Seren. The food was exceptional, the quality of the ingredients, the inspirational ideas of the chef and the execution of each course could not be faulted. Each course was timed to perfection so as not to be rushed, and was beautifully presented. We are local and delighted we have such a venue on our doorstep. Michelin star quality in our view, and we have eaten in a few. Well done to Andrew Stirling and his team.
