🧹 HOUSEKEEPING TEAM WANTED 🧹

Castle Durrow is looking for some brilliant people to join our Housekeeping Team, with part-time, full-time and Housekeeping Supervisor positions available.

We’re looking for people who genuinely have an eye for detail. Someone who notices the crooked cushion, the water mark on the tap, or the little things others might miss.

Previous experience is important, and we’re looking for people who take real pride in their work and understand the standards required in a busy country house hotel.

🪡 We would also love to hear from anyone with sewing or soft-furnishing skills.

If you have experience with curtains, cushions, pillow making, alterations, upholstery or other soft furnishings, we would be particularly interested in hearing from you.

We’re looking for dependable, hardworking people who care about doing a job properly and who would like to become part of our team.

Welcome to Castle Durrow Country House ✨

For us, this house has always been more than a hotel, it’s our home.

I grew up here, watching my parents, Peter and Shelly Stokes, lovingly restore and care for this beautiful old house. Through their vision, hard work and dedication, Castle Durrow became not just a destination, but a place where generations of guests have celebrated life’s most special moments.

Today, Robin and I are privileged to continue that story, raising our own children, Florence and Beau, amongst the same gardens and hallways that hold so many memories for me and my siblings.

Seeing them run through the grounds I once explored as a child reminds us just how special this place truly is. Every generation leaves its mark, and it feels incredibly special to be part of Castle Durrow’s next chapter.

As parents ourselves now, we appreciate more than ever what Peter and Shelly created here. Their love and dedication laid the foundations for so many happy memories, and we hope to pass that same care, warmth and sense of home on to the next generation.

Through the years, Castle Durrow has been a place where memories are made, friendships are formed and families come together. It is a privilege to welcome guests from near and far, and we hope that when you visit, you’ll feel at home too.

Thank you for being part of our story.

With love,
Tessa, Robin, Florence & Beau 🌱
