The team at House Party Solutions is delighted to announce the addition of Thornbury Castle to our portfolio of luxury accommodation and venues.
This distinguished castle offers 27 luxurious en-suite bedrooms, including Deluxe, Superior Deluxe, and Suite options. Highlights include the Catherine of Aragon Tower Suite, with spectacular views extending across to Wales! The Gatehouse is currently undergoing refurbishment and will soon provide an additional, separate two-bedroom family suite with a private garden and parking.
Located within 30 minutes from Bristol City Centre and Bristol Parkway.
The castle was originally conceived and constructed by Edward Stafford, the only man to rival King Henry VIII’s wealth and status at that time. It was a display of wealth and ambition that Henry did not take kindly to, and after Stafford was found guilty of treason, the king took control of the castle he so coveted. A brief, beloved retreat for Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn, Thornbury Castle has weathered the tumult of British history over the centuries.
Following Henry VIII’s death, the castle passed through the hands of his children, Edward VI and Queen Mary Tudor (Mary I). Today, it stands just as tall as it did in those days of courtly intrigue; renewed with care by its current custodians and imbued with the regal grandeur of its past. Built to impress the most powerful man in the country, five centuries later, it still impresses.
The 15 acres of land that surround Thornbury Castle provide stunning views and boundless activity for all who stay. From the fineries of our meticulously manicured lawns to the numerous castle gardens and rolling countryside, our outdoor spaces evoke the Tudor era as much as the stone walls and majestic interiors of the former royal castle itself.
Relax in front of an open fire and enjoy spectacular views of the Tudor Walled Gardens through the stunning oriel windows.
