What’s it Like to Stay in a Tudor Castle in England?

What’s it like to stay in a real Tudor Castle Hotel in England, Henry VII Castle, Thornbury Castle Hotel, Feet Do Travel
Is staying in a real Castle on your bucket list? How about a Tudor Castle in England, owned and visited by the UK’s most fascinating monarch, King Henry VIII?

Britain is blessed with many historic Castles in beautiful surroundings. Although there are many castles in England which you can visit, there are very few Castle Hotels. We discovered one close to where we lived, and we didn’t have to pay a King’s ransom to spend the night; Thornbury Castle in South Gloucestershire.

Thornbury Castle is a 500 year old luxurious Castle Hotel. Built in the 1500’s, King Henry VIII owned this castle and stayed for 10 days with his wife, the fated Anne Boleyn, on their honeymoon tour in 1535, and yes you can stay in the same room as King Henry VIII.
​
We booked a night here for Sy’s birthday, but did it live up to its expectations? Did we feel like Royalty when we stayed at Thornbury Castle, and what’s it like to walk in the footsteps of Kings and Queens?

Feet Do Travel reveal what it’s like to stay in a real Tudor Castle Hotel.
