Castle Hotel PhotoThe Castle Hotel, in the rural village of Kirby Muxloe, is within easy access of Junction 21A of the M1 North and Alton Towers theme park is close by.  This is a lovely area with the village having local shops and, of course, the Castle which is in the background of our hotel. The pub dates back to the 1630's when it was the castle's farmhouse.  Inside is light and bright and still has alcoves which are decorated in different colours. The furnishings complement the decor to which there are comfortable sofas in the bar area to stylish high backed chairs.  We were once the largest employer of local people with presses producing excellent Leicestershire cheese.  Now we are part of the Chef & Brewer estate offering you a superb destination food house with very good accommodation.  The restaurant still has it's charm with open fires and dining by candle light.  As well as our excellent main menu with dishes to suit the whole family we have a great variety of regular changing house specials shown on chalkboard menus.  Like all Chef & Brewer pubs we employ the best Chefs in the area who prepare your meal from the freshest of ingredients.  To enjoy the summer we have a large garden which seats about a hundred people and a patio area which is 'the' perfect place for al fresco dining.  If visiting the area why not choose us as your place to stay the night.  As well as comfortable en-suite rooms we have the ability to hold civil ceremonies and large functions.  Whenever you come a warm welcome is guaranteed by our friendly staff.

When you visit the pub please let the staff know you have seen it on Pub Explorer.
