Thornbury Castle Unveils UK’s Biggest Bed, Fit for a King!
Posted on 04/11/2009

Thornbury Castle Unveils UK’s Biggest Bed, Fit for a King!Celebrating 500 years this year, Thornbury Castle has gone one step or a few ft further in announcing a unique new bed, in a unique new room at the top of this unique Castle.

The new Tower Room, 77 steps up at the top of Thornbury Castle, England’s only Tudor castle open as a hotel, the bedroom features the UK’s biggest bed at 10ft wide. The Tower Room with its stunning views also features under floor heating in the bathroom. The whole feel of the bedroom is Royal, with historic, period patterns and fabrics from Watts of Westminster covering the headboard, chairs and parts of the walls.

Launching in Spring 2010 is the room’s very own private roof terrace enhancing the uniqueness of this room. Views from this part of the tower are simply stunning and the terrace will add a special private place on top of the Castle to enjoy a special memorable moment.

Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn once lived at Thornbury Castle. Today, the 500 year-old castle-palace with its beautiful oriel windows, Tudor hall and historic parkland invites guests to indulge in what is probably one of the most talked about Castles in English history.

With its own vineyard on site where white wine is produced along with the fantastic menu offered all year round in the grand restaurant, this addition to Thornbury Castle’s history is set to attract even more interest and furthermore make another mark in the diverse history of Thornbury Castle.

Henry VIII would be proud!

The Tower Room is priced from £750.00 per night and includes breakfast
