We were on our honeymoon and this villa was absolutely Devine!
Straight out of a story book beautiful!
The staff and our room were 5 stars.
The breakfast included was also generous and gourmet delicious.
Already planning our return for the one year anniversary!

My girlfriend likes this hotel very much, but it doesn’t have a 24-hour check-in. Breakfast is a bit early and there are mosquitoes in the room, but the castle and the environment are worth staying.

Disappointing experience. We were looking forward to our stay but the place is run down and cold. The lady at the front desk was friendly, our room lovely but old and needing an update, the dinner and breakfast disappointing and tasteless with a very long wait and there was only another couple staying so definitely not busy. We stayed 2 nights and ended stopping off at the supermarket to buy dinner the second night as we were not going to spend the money to eat at the restaurant again. We asked for the fire to be started in the fireplace but the lady had no idea how to start it. The grounds were unkept and our whole experience was terrible.

I had the most wonderful, revitalising and beautiful stay at Villa Howden. The host was delightful. She could not have done more to make my stay perfect. It was so peaceful and luxurious and unexpected. The building, the decor, the location - everything about this place is delightful and all this time I had no idea it was right on my doorstep! I will be recommending this place to all my friends and family. Whether, like me, you are looking for some solitude to recharge the old batteries, or a couple looking for a magical place to connect and unwind, or you're planning a big event (as a wedding venue it would be such fun!), I can not speak more highly of Villa Howden. A quirky, classy, special little piece of paradise.

Could have been so good Maybe 3 stars, at a stretch. What could have been!! This place has been run into the ground. Cold cooked breakfasts. You pay extra for coffee, old saggy mattress. Curtains in taters. No working smoke alarms ! Untrained staff couldn't even light a fire. The breakfast room was like an ice box. Won't be back, that's for sure

We booked the restaurant for a special dinner celebration in May. We were not hotel guests. When I called to book a table, the person who answered the phone was unsure as she had to speak to the chef and she was going to call me back. She did not call me back. So I called again the next day and got a confirmation of a table. When we went to the restaurant, it was so cold we had to keep our coats on the whole time. There was no one in the restaurant. The appetiser and dessert were excellent but the main was below par. After appetiser, the waitress who was the receptionist, just dropped 2 sets of cutlery for the next course on our table.I felt like we were at a cheap dining place. Service was poor. I’m sure the rooms are excellent.

Such a nice find, my room was $400 for a night and felt like I got a bargain. It’s beautifully located and easy to find. This would easily be a 5 star luxury if some investment took place. Fix the fountain, a tiny bit of patron attention and you would fill this place every night. Use local products and promote your neighbours. You have fantastic cider all around, yet none in your fridge. Overall I still think it’s a great place.

I loved the vibe of this place- the location and aesthetic was fabulous. The fixtures all seem to have been imported from Provence and the food was delish. My only gripe (so 4 stars not 5) was that there was one teenager on duty the whole evening, and it was only the poor girl’s second day working in hospitality. Still she kept with it and even did a YouTube tutorial before making us (phenomenal) cocktails. The rooms aren’t cheap and having a competent adult around to help and train her would have been kind. Still, a glorious escape and a great place to stay on the Channel.
