Our room was tiny and the door/windows went out onto a footpath, but it had air conditioning so we loved it. The cookies in the room is sich a nice touch. The afternoon tea was one of our favorite activities we did on our trip. The service, location, and food was excellent. We especially appreciated the Happy Anniversary acknowledgement during the tea. The tasting menu for dinner was very good.

Our two night stay at the Amberley Castle was an authentic experience forever cherished. The "Celebration Package" is highly recommended. We were spoiled with a fresh bouquet of flowers upon arrival, a bottle of chilled Champagne, and lovely box of handmade Belgian chocolates. A five course gourmet dinner, afternoon tea and daily breakfast also included. The staff were all amazing and very professional, attentive, and helpful. Our server Bothy went especially above and beyond at every meal, we truly felt spoiled. He also has a great sense of humor. Highly recommended for a relaxing retreat with beautiful grounds and scenery, and amazing food.
What a phenomenal place!! I couldn't recommend it more! The atmosphere in such a historic and beautiful setting is incredible! Upon arrival we parked and went to check in, we were greeted by the front desk and shown to our room for the night and asked if we required any help with our luggage, we where given the details about breakfast and we're encouraged to relax, explore and enjoy our stay.
An amazing afternoon tea experience at Amberley Castle. We made a last-minute reservation and were lucky to get an outdoor table on a Saturday afternoon. Although all the garden tables were occupied, the setting still felt peaceful, with only the occasional laughter from a nearby table celebrating an 80th birthday—something rather lovely. The staff were warm, welcoming, and had a great sense of humour. My favourite was the flaky sausage roll, while the scone stood out with its fresh strawberry jam and thick cream. The hot sun did not bother us thanks to the large umbrella and gentle breeze, though it did melt the chocolate pastry a little. The portions were generous—we could not finish everything and took some home. The total came to £121 (including service), about £60 per person for a special afternoon tea in a castle. We should have booked earlier to allow more time to explore the castle and surrounding town, but it was still a memorable and rather extraordinary experience. N.B. I wish they had packed another chocolate pastry that I could have a try.
A thoroughly enjoyable way to celebrate our 57th wedding anniversary. We spoiled ourselves and booked the celebration package. A beautiful bouquet of flowers awaited with chocolates and champagne. The staff went out of their way to make it feel special. They were friendly, professional and welcoming. The setting is perfect for a romantic break away. The 5 course tasting menu was superb and we were treated to a complimentary celebratory glass of Nyetimber rose sparkling wine. Afternoon tea the following day was taken in the garden - again good quality and most enjoyable. My husband enjoyed the apple strudel tea. We had a classic room - very comfortable with excellent tea and coffee making facilities. Spacious bathroom. Absolutely no complaints.
