During the English Civil War the castle was captured by the Parliamentary forces and subsequently burned in 1644. The castle remained decaying until 1900, when purchased by John Philipps, 1st Viscount St Davids, who restored it. The castle was purchased again in 2008 and was restored as a hotel. rochcastle.com
