Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Everything was perfect, except the steps inside the castle, I have difficulty walking so steps are bad news. The breakfast was very good with as much as you could possibly want, both cooked, cereal, pastries etc. We booked into the castle dining room every night, the food was superb! We have dined several times at Gordon Ramsay’s and other high-end restaurants and hotels in London and I can assure you that the chef at the Star Castle is equal to and in my opinion better than any celebrity chef we have yet found. The set menu is fantastic value, superbly presented and a tour de force of the culinary art, go nowhere else to dine! We had a garden room with balcony and sea view, it was spacious, clean, quiet and warm, perfect really. All the staff are welcoming and friendly with nothing being too much for them no matter what you ask for. This was our 3rd visit to the Star Castle although the previous ones were about 25 years ago, it did not disappoint!
Negative: My knees did not like the climb from Hugh Town up the hill to the Castle, but thats my problem!
Summary: Superb.
