Walter 8.0

The location, once you figured out where you were in relation to the castle. The staff were very responsive to calls or messages. Our room on the top floor with its own private bathroom was great. A big thank you to the staff who found my wedding ring that I had left behind, contacted me straight away and mailed it to me. 🏆
