About This AttractionSuggest an Edit

Travel back in time with the family to over 900 years ago and see what life was like in a medieval Motte and Bailey castle, which is unique in that it is the only reconstructed one on an original site in the world! Kids will love exploring the castle and the Norman village that is hidden behind the castle walls experiencing what it was like to live many years ago in Domesday times. Admission price also includes entry into The House on the Hill Toy Museum and the Palaeontology House too!
