The Accommodation Was Built in 1863 by the First Lord Abinger, near the Site of the Original, 13th-Century Fortress. The Castle Had Been a Private Residence For Over a Hundred Years Until 1969, When It Was Converted from a Family Home Into a Country House Hotel. Now Over 100 Years Old, the Castle Has Been Modernised and Upgraded But, As With the Beauty of Its Setting, Its Imposing Style and Victorian Grandeur Remain Timeless. The Great Hall, Which Guests Will See For Themselves Upon Entering the Hotel, Has a Beautifully Frescoed Ceiling, Venetian Crystal Chandeliers and a Handsome Staircase, Reflecting the Relaxed, Tranquil Atmosphere of a Bygone Age. The Property Comprises a Total of 17 Accommodation Units.
