Value and Values at Castle Retreats

Our values reflect our core ethos to treat everyone we are engaged with as we wish to be treated ourselves – with decency, mutual respect and to the same standards we hope for ourselves.  In the provision of accommodation, we hold ourselves to a high standard of cleanliness as this is what we believe to be the most important factor to us when choosing somewhere to stay.

We invest additional expense through the provision of a thorough cleaning process and additional linen costs met by our ‘triple lock’ approach to triple pillow protection (three pillowcases including a protector) and double duvet (two duvet covers) to protect the duvet itself.  Duvets are laundered regularly, and the mattresses are protected and double sheeted which are laundered between stays. 

Whilst the accommodation can be a little quirky due to the age and nature of the castle, you will find it has been thoroughly cleaned to the standard we aim for ourselves. Provisions are sourced locally wherever possible, and we choose organic milk for your fridge because not only is it healthier for you it also underpins a better quality of life for the dairy cows who produce it for us humans.

We work with local artisans to provide interior items wherever we can,  for example the coasters and placements are hand made by Kelly of DesignbyK in Paignton.  As we develop our ‘stays’ we intend to offer each guest a handmade gift supplied by local artists.

We are developing ‘stays’ based around historical and cultural events linked to both this castle and the wider locality.

Our aim is to restore this historic location and by booking your accommodation or (relaxed) organised stay you are supporting us to preserve this little part of Devonshire’s English heritage.

Renovatio – be a part of it!
