About This Bed and Breakfast
Ravenwood Castle located in New Plymouth, Ohio offers a unique medieval-themed getaway nestled in the rolling hills near Hocking Hills State Park. This enchanting property features a castle-style main building with themed rooms, plus separate cottages and cabins spread across wooded grounds. Located about 25-30 minutes from major Hocking Hills attractions, this bed and breakfast provides a secluded escape perfect for those seeking an immersive, off-the-grid experience.
Atmosphere
The castle and grounds offer a peaceful, romantic atmosphere with a strong medieval theme throughout. Visitors describe the environment as quiet and secluded, surrounded by mature trees. The castle features dark wood interiors, vintage decor, and period touches like tapestries and suits of armor. Common areas include a great dining hall, pub, library with board games, and outdoor spaces with life-size chess. While some find the medieval ambiance enchanting, others note the castle can feel dark and closed-in. Limited wifi and cell service contribute to an “unplugged” experience.
Breakfast
Complimentary breakfast is served buffet-style in the great hall, featuring rotating breakfast casseroles, cereal, hard-boiled eggs, muffins, yogurt, and occasional special items like homemade cinnamon rolls. While some visitors enjoy the breakfast offerings, others find them basic. Special dietary accommodations are available with advance notice.
Bathrooms
Bathroom experiences vary significantly between rooms. Castle rooms generally have clean private bathrooms, though some are noted as small or dated. Cottage bathrooms feature jacuzzi tubs but several guests mention issues with well water and hard water stains. Some report tiny showers and maintenance needs like loose faucets or cracked surrounds. The bathrooms are consistently described as clean despite occasional functional limitations.
