Welcome to Castle Inn
Restaurant & Bar
"Eat and drink in three counties under one roof"
Our Story
The Castle Inn, once a hotel next to Rockingham railway station, is set within the heart of the beautiful Welland Valley on the Leicestershire, Rutland and Northamptonshire border, just two miles from Corby.
It is a unique place where you can eat and drink in three counties under one roof — a welcoming country retreat using freshly prepared produce from local sources.
The Castle restaurant, with its long bar, oak-beamed ceiling, open fireplace and stone-baked pizza oven, is the perfect place for a relaxing dining experience in beautiful surroundings.
