The Castle Hotel

The Castle Hotel is a privately run 2 Star award winning Hotel. It has
been owned and run by Howard and Helen Fradley for the past fifteen
years. It prides itself on the quality of food and accommodation that it
provides for each guest that walks through the door.

The Hotel is situated in the centre of Downham Market some 28 miles
north of Cambridge with easy access to London (M11). Downham
Market itself is a charming Norfolk market Town. It has one or two claims
to fame in that it helped to educate the young Norfolk boy who was to
become Lord Nelson and it was also the home of Captain Manby who
invented the life-saving gun used in shore-to-shipwreck rescue
operations.

Around Downham the visitor will find much to enjoy without going far
afield. The Wash is only a few miles away and there is golf, boating,
fishing and of course the great meeting place of rivers at Denver. Here
the Great Ouse sweeps round to collect the water of the river Wissey
and joins up at the mighty Denver Sluice with the Bedford rivers and the
new relief channel, all flowing towards the sea.
