Hornby Castle as it stands dates back to 1520 - the main house is Victorian having been torn down and rebuilt by its various owners over the years who have all added to the rich history that this building has. Hornby has housed numerous interesting characters who have played a part or influenced well known historical events. Turner painted pictures from the top of the keep. We now have the honour of living here and you can enjoy a stay in this wonderful location.

Please note - the stairs up to the flat are very steep.
Please don't leave the window open and left unattended.

Guest access
Guests can access a river walk from the main house. Please be aware that you might meet dogs if you go for a stroll. The main lawn areas and gardens at the front of the house are however private. There is parking for one car, if further parking is required please get in touch as this can easily be arranged. I can arrange self check in if you want to arrive after 8pm.

Other things to note
Hornby Castle, is an old building, with high ceilings and as such can BE MUCH COLDER than the average home, even in summer - always pack a jumper! It has creaks, cracks and occasionally the odd leak. We do our best to ensure these don't affect you, but please bear in mind its history and age. We have 2 children and dogs, we ask that you take care and drive slowly when coming up the drive, as the children are often playing and I am always walking the dogs! The dogs and cat (cat belongs to one of the tenants) don't have access to the flat.
Please note - we are located in a rural location - we advise that you don't open the windows and leave the lights on as this can attract bugs. This can occur even if you leave windows open for protracted periods of time. Please don't leave windows open when you go out for the day as the wind can pick up and they can bang.
