Thornbury Castle, a Relais & Châteaux hotel, is the only Tudor castle in England to have been converted into a luxury hotel. With a history that includes hosting Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn, it offers guests the unique opportunity to sleep in an authentic royal residence with modern luxury.
The 27 rooms and suites are lavishly furnished, many featuring grand four-poster beds and stone fireplaces, retaining the Tudor character. The Duke's bedchamber, where Henry VIII stayed, is the most sought-after room, offering an unparalleled historical luxury experience.
The castle is surrounded by beautiful walled gardens that create an oasis of peace. Guests can try their hand at activities like archery and falconry, providing a taste of the medieval traditions that were part of castle life.
The award-winning restaurant is renowned for its modern European cuisine, using seasonal and local ingredients, many sourced from the castle's own garden. Dining in the historic rooms, with their arched windows and vaulted ceilings, is a truly regal experience.
Despite its grandeur and royal legacy, Thornbury Castle maintains an intimate and welcoming atmosphere. The service is personalized and discreet, ensuring guests enjoy a perfect blend of history, luxury, and comfort in the Gloucestershire countryside.
