January 2025We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Thornbury Castle. We choose this castle to celebrate my 60th birthday and I couldn't be happier with that choice. The staff were warm, friendly and welcoming, the food was superb and the interior of the castle is so beautiful and grand. Our bedroom (De Percy) was beautifully appointed and very comfortable. My only niggle was that the bathroom could do with a shelf, positioned close to the sink to house my toiletries. We also loved the fact that the castle owners employ a lot of the local youngsters from Thornbury village, who were very interesting to chat to and had a great deal of knowledge relating to the castle and the surrounding areas. The castle is very atmospheric and steeped in history, which makes it a wonderful place to spend a relaxing break and Thornbury Castle certainly exceeded our expectations.

January 2025This was a very special experience, I have always wanted to spend the night in a castle! I was treated by my husband to this stay and it was wonderful. Gorgeous castle and grounds, close to the village, was easy to walk in and see the cute shops and cosy pubs too. We had afternoon tea and a tasting menu for dinner which was pricey but delicious I felt like a queen for 24 hours! Highly recommend 👌

March 2025As a Bristol wedding photographer with the privilege of being recommended by Thornbury Castle, I have had the honor of capturing countless intimate elopements and weddings within its stunning walls. Every time I step onto this enchanting property, I’m reminded of why it’s one of the most magical and unique venues for couples seeking a truly unforgettable experience. One of the things that stands out to me as a photographer is the exceptional level of service provided by Thornbury Castle's team. As a recommended vendor, I’ve had the opportunity to work closely with the wedding coordinators, chefs, and staff on several occasions, and I can confidently say that they are some of the best in the industry. They understand the needs of photographers and are always willing to help make the day flow smoothly. As a wedding photographer, working at Thornbury Castle is always a highlight of my year. The venue’s stunning beauty, its intimate and romantic atmosphere, and the incredible team make it an ideal choice for couples seeking a truly memorable wedding or elopement experience. I’m lucky enough to witness the magic unfold every time, and I know that every couple who chooses Thornbury Castle will leave with not only breathtaking photographs but a heart full of joy and cherished memories. - Martin Dabek Photography

January 2025Lovely rooms, lovely hotel overall too. The only things that pulled down my review was really the fact that it's the UK (cold 🥶) but yeah, GREAT place! The food was also really good, and the staff were SO nice and always there to help. It was a few weeks ago, but I loved it.
