Wonderful weekend get away

This was our second stay at Castleton. Just as wonderful as the first. Highly recommend hiking the Hazel River Trail for the closest access to The Park.

Pretty countryside escape

Rock Cottage is as described. It is spacious and well appointed. The bed is very comfortable and we slept well. To know- they are serious about you needing to bring everything to add for cooking, oil, spices etc. this include coffee filters. There are pods but if you are big coffee drinkers you will want to use the pot. The scenery is beautiful and the walking path to the Manor house is well kept for a short explore.
