Thornbury Castle, Tudor castle and luxury hotel in Thornbury, England
The castle features a symmetrical entrance with a central turret, octagonal corner towers, and multiple facades displaying irregular projecting towers.
Edward Stafford initiated the construction in 1511, but King Henry VIII confiscated the property after ordering Stafford's execution in 1521.
The castle maintains 26 bedrooms that incorporate Tudor period elements while providing modern accommodations for guests seeking historical experiences.
Located 30 minutes from Bristol city center, the castle operates as a hotel with a restaurant that earned three AA rosettes for culinary excellence.
