Historic Farmhouse Setting

Originally a 17th-century farmhouse, the Castle Hotel sits on the edge of the Leicestershire countryside in the village of Kirby Muxloe. One of the ancient towers of Kirby Castle was demolished in the 18th century, and some of its bricks were used in the repair of the farmhouse, adding historical character. The hotel has outdoor gardens and terraces for relaxed dining and socializing, with views of the castle ruins.

Chef & Brewer Dining Experience

The hotel includes a Chef and Brewer restaurant known for its seasonal specialties and themed menus. The weekly specials are created by the head chef, and the food is accompanied by a carefully chosen extensive wine list. A dedicated children's menu is available, and the restaurant offers special diet menus and kids' meals.

Spacious Rooms with Period Features

The 19 rooms retain period features, and each includes a flat-screen TV and an en suite bathroom. Some rooms offer large bathrooms with Victorian-style green tiled walls and walk-in showers. The hotel has free parking on site and offers pet-friendly options for guests traveling with animals.

Location and Nearby Attractions

The hotel is located a 5-minute drive from junction 21A of the M1 motorway, making it easily accessible. Guests can walk to Kirby Muxloe Castle in a few minutes, and it is close to Leicester city center and Bradgate Park and Bracon Hill. The area offers countryside walks and public transport options to Leicester.

Family-Friendly and Pet-Friendly Facilities

The hotel is family-friendly, offering a dedicated children's menu and high chairs in the restaurant. It is also pet-friendly, with designated areas for dogs in the garden and pub. The on-site bar serves a wide range of local and international drinks, and the outdoor seating areas include heated spots.

The comfort of the rooms, particularly the generously sized beds and tasteful decor, seems to be a consistent highlight, alongside the quality of the food served.
