10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2026
This is a magical place to stay. The remaining part of the castle, the gatehouse, is where our room was, and in fact we had use of a significant part of that building which is around 700 years old. We had a huge 4 poster bed which was very comfortable, and our own bathroom across the landing. We had access to the grounds which contain a chapel with 6th century origins. Some of the administration was not quite as perfect as we would have liked, but please persevere, as we did, and you will have a wonderful experience. A good continental breakfast was included. If you want to sleep in a genuine castle with a four poster bed, then you will struggle to find anywhere as good as this, and certainly not at this very reasonable price.

I absolutely LOVED my stay at Bickleigh Castle. Last week, management changed over to Peggy and her partner, but Peggy has been leasing garden space and making improvements for some time now.
Based on recent reviews, I'll list everything they've worked on here. They've made stellar improvements to the garden and dining room. The continental breakfast was extremely fresh, the live plants in the dining room greatly improved the ambiance, the linens were crisp and clean, and service was warm and homely. The garden has tons of apple trees, vegetables (I spotted giant tomatoes), a pond with pretty fish, archways and seating, chickens (that they use the fresh eggs for during breakfast upon request), and warm lighting. Peggy also has bees down the road a bit and the honey is also used during breakfast (it's delicious!). In my room, the linens looked brand new, there were no bugs, and it was nicely stocked with shampoo/body wash, waters, tea, and biscuits. The TV did indeed work as well.
I also want to give a huge shout out to Peggy for her hospitality. When she learned yesterday was my birthday, she surprised me with a personalized card and a chocolate treat at breakfast. She was also a pleasure to chat with during my entire stay, and really made me feel cared for during my first international trip.
They need more business to be able to continue with improvements, so please book a tea and tour or a vacation here. They truly care about this place and deserve a chance.
