5 /5 Jason Rineer: We visited Stokesay Castle as a family to celebrate my son’s birthday, and it was a fantastic experience.
The exterior of the castle is amazing and inspiring, truly a sight to see. The venue itself is impressive a legit medieval English style castle with a great atmosphere build in the early 1900’s.
The dining area is large and open, with a spacious bar and plenty of seating. Our service was top notch, and the manager was especially welcoming, taking time to share some of the castle’s history and what they offer, which added a really nice personal touch to our visit.
The food was solid. I’d give it a 4 out of 5. As a family, we enjoyed the ribs, shepherd’s pie, and a couple of burgers. Everything was well prepared, though both burgers came out well-done despite being ordered medium. That said, they were still enjoyable.
After dinner, we took a walk through the castle. There’s a large banquet hall perfect for hosting big events, a stunning main room with tall ceilings and exposed rafters, ideal for mid-size events or themed parties, and several other rooms well-suited for more intimate gatherings.
All in all, between the food, the unique setting, and the warm hospitality, the experience easily earned a 5 Star rating from us. We’re thankful this one of a kind place was saved and restored. It’s worth visiting, especially for special occasions.
