Set on 15 acres of private gardens and woodland with its own lake it creates an ideal location for your memorable photographs. The castles backdrop is equally spectacular for a drinks reception with the mythical stone griffins keeping watch at every event.
"Everyone who arrived at the castle was amazingly impressed and we couldn’t have enjoyed the weekend more. We have to say that the place probably exceeded our expectations in every way. We’re sure to be back there in the future."
