Schönes altes Schloss. Das Interieur ist größtenteils in Originalzustand und es gibt viel zu sehen. Nettes Personal beantwortet gerne Fragen.

Nice walk around the grounds there's deer ;) and a nice walk inside the castle.well worth the entrance.

Stunning castle, and beautiful surroundings including great views of the deer park. Fun activity searching for birds throughout the castle and dress up was a highlight my 7 year old. Main cafe was closed and parts of the play area were cornered off. Victorian class house was closed.
