Amberley Castle- A Relais & Chateaux Hotel

和蘇格蘭比，這裡是倫敦周圍挑來挑去不多的古堡。 幫忙停車，餐廳食物和服務也不錯，一晚就還好。 不是室內設施有多好，而是確實是古堡。

We only visited Amberley Castle for Afternoon Tea, (I’d LOVE to stay overnight though!) but it was a truly wonderful experience from the time we turned into the driveway, through the gardens and to a friendly greeting at reception. The castle is just the perfect venue for any occasion, special or just personal decadence! The Afternoon Tea was a real surprise. After ordering tea from their excellent selection, we were offered a Chef's Special tea in a small glass. Deliciously different! The '1st' course, toasted cheese & tomato sandwich, savoury tart, sausage roll and a platter of tasty sandwiches were served on a 3-tier serving platter and were very, very tasty. Luckily we were both hungry, as we were plied with more tea and the 'sweet' course of our tea - another 3-tiered platter of warm fruit & plain scones, small jars of homemade strawberry jam & clotted cream plus an assortment of exquisite cakes and an apple crumble tartlet. Again, it was all delicious! In fact, it was all so lovely and cosy in the castle on such a wet & miserable Sunday afternoon, that we didn't want to leave - so we didn't! We made ourselves very comfortable with a welcome cup of coffee in one of the cosy lounges and sat right in front of the inviting log fire reading the interesting books of days gone by in Sussex! A BIG thank you to all the hotel and restaurant staff who made us so welcome. It was a very memorable Sunday afternoon and we cannot wait to go back with a large group of friends in December for a private Festive Lunch!

Amberley is one of the best castle-hotel close to London. Everything is magnificent. Unic design, high class service, amazing for country side fine dining restaurant, fresh 'medieval' rooms, panoramic landscapes, old fairy tale village around all this....

Equally excellent dinner party for eight and tea for four at Ambeley. The excellence of the food and elegance of the setting was equalled by the splendid, professional and sympathetic service. Already looking forward to next year.

We could not fault the staff, service or the amazingly tasty afternoon tea. Historic and beautifully maintained location...worth a visit just for that alone and such a cosy and comfortable atmosphere in the lounge with the log fire burning. Book for tea as soon as you can. We were there in total 2 3/4 hours, which is quite a while, but service is intentionally unrushed and we relaxed into the sofas for a well-earned, chilled afternoon. Yoy will need the gaps between the tea and two food courses to digest and prepare for the next. Totally worth the £50 ppn...perfect for special occasions. We had need for disabled access and staff were very helpful explaining how to come in with least possible walking. There are only two shallow steps down from the drop off circle which was manageable.

Spend at least 2 days to give you time to have a good look round teh castle and grounds. The team at Amberley castle are first class, the restaurant is set in an amazing hall with fabulous ceiling and views. It is also within 15 mins drive of Arundel castle which we would highly recommend a visit to if you hav ethe time.

Made to feel welcome by Carol at reception from the second we arrived and that warmth and professionalism continued to our departure. Carol was the outstanding member of staff for us but all were great. The building is historic as you would expect and if you want air conditioning and power showers this is not the hotel for you, old buildings do not lend themselves to ultra modern touches. The food is good, the service excellent and the only criticism we found was that the mattresses ( we tried two rooms and both with the same issue) were on the soft side.

Once again Amberley Castle provided the perfect venue for a birthday afternoon tea service was as professional as ever but also friendly food delicious as always a must at anytime - the surroundings as always were beautiful lawns lovely and the dinner room magically

Very overpriced and not worth the money. Food was distinctly average and wine ridiculously expensive with self satisfied service except for the charming waiter who was doing his very best for us. This was not an experience we would want to repeat
