A bit away from the small city of Adelaide is a rare gem! A castle nestled in the hills run by a quirky and sincere man and his wife. Although the hotel has 5 rooms they don't allow more than 2 rooms to be occupied in order to pay full attention to you every need. Kenneth, the husband, came to greet us at the front gate and showed us around the property and to our suite, The Queen's Chamber, which was spacious and perfectly furnished to make you feel like you were in a fairytale. While we looked around our room, Kenneth brought our VERRRRRRRYYY HEAVY luggage up the very narrow spiral staircase and to our room. For some reason we really did not expect that this was the only way to get the luggage up to the room and we REALLY didn't expect Kenneth to do it for us. Breakfast is served every morning in your room and dinner is served for an additional cost either in your room or in a very beautiful dining area facing the garden. I would recommend this! In the dining room there is a real candle chandelier that is lit for your dinner. The rooms is small, intimate and comfortable and they seat you right in the window for a beautiful view of the sunset. Another amazing detail is the flatware that Kenneth and his wife uses for the dinner. Each piece is a unique antique some dating back to the 1500's. Kenneth served us the night we ate in the dining room and we really loved getting to know about him, the castle and the history of the furnishings. He is a little timid, but really enjoys talking about his passion which is Thorngrove Manor. Although we only had 2 nights there we will definitely remember it as a great experience and hope to return again. It is definitely 5-star worthy!
