“Unexpected pleasure”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 December 2012

Our stay at the Castle was completely last minute. We received a friendly welcome and house tour as the sun was setting. We were the only guests. Everything was beyond perfection - our room, bath, decor, bike, and of course the best breakfast that could have fed 20 but was for two. Didn't we feel special. The house was simply... More

“Another excellent Thanksgiving”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 November 2012

A week here is a vacation in the truest sense. We were welcomed back as if old and dear friends. The atmosphere is rustic yet elegant. The breakfast is really a full scale brunch and for us eliminated the need to eat lunch. We hope to sneak in a shorter visit before next Thanksgiving.

“Fantastic breakfast”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 November 2012

This place is worth staying at for the breakfast alone. We stayed in the Lighthouse and felt like a king and queen. Beautiful view. The staff were great and friendly. I recommend this B&B highly. Within walking distance of shopping and restaurants

I agree with you about the breakfast...it is absolutely fabulous and you probably did not even want to eat again until supper...we have some great cooks here. The Lighthouse Suite is one of our most popular rooms and one reason is the view of the harbor. Thank you so much for staying with us and posting a review here. We... More

“You won't want to leave”

This B&B is charming inside and out. The staff are friendly, the rooms are clean and smoke and pet free, the breakfast is delicious. They also provide free bikes to their guests. The widows walk has a nice view of the harbor and is a great place to have your morning coffee or a glass of wine at sunset. We... More

“Short but lovely stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 September 2012

We stayed at the Inn for only one night, but it was lovely. We chose a Villa, and were very happy that we did. We had our own fully-stocked kitchen, living room with flat screen TV, separate bedroom with king bed, and bathroom with jacuzzi tub and separate stall shower, as well as our own screened porch. Everything was clean,... More

5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 September 2012

This is the fourth year we have stayed at the Castle B and B. I am very picky about how clean a place is and the Castle is always spotless. The food is AMAZING and is so generous that it should be factored in when conisdering the price. I find it humerous that someone complained that the food is not... More

“Relaxing and perfect”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 August 2012

First, let's say that Ocracoke is an totally wonderful place to go to. Quaint, pretty, without the commercial giants that we find everywhere else (no McDonald's, no Walmart, no Sonic...), it is a place for the ones who like to be outside the typical touristy places. The Castle on silver Lake is pretty, clean, fun, relaxing an the friendliness of... More

Wonderful room, fabulous Jacuzzi tub, and an excellent breakfast - had an amazing stay at the Castle B&B. We sat on the lighthouse balcony and enjoyed wine and cheese we picked up at the local wine store while taking in the view of Silver Lake Harbour.

My wife and I decided to swing down to Ocracoke for a night to search for a future vacation location, so we rented the "Net House" villa, suite B, at this Bed and Breakfast. There was no one at the front desk when we "checked in" so I just picked up our key and we walked over to our villa.... More

She did not hear from you during your stay and regretted that you did not contact anyone about the issues you mention. We cannot do anything about a complaint once you... More
