From first booking, Marc's communication was excellent. The castles location is oustanding being some considerable distance from any major road making it an excellent place for peace and tranquillity. The only sound was cowbells and local wildlife . There is a very good rustic hostel a very short drive or walk away although all the amenities to cater for yourself. Marc, Ginny and Dora (the dog) were all super friendly and excellent hosts, able to provide local information and the history of this amazing castle. An outstanding place to stay and we would highly recommend.
