About This AttractionSuggest an Edit

This dramatic medieval castle is really well preserved with plenty of nooks and crannies for the family to explore. In the centre is a 14th century tower house with 3m thick walls and a warren of rooms, downstairs there's the grim basement prison where a skeleton was found. Outdoors there's plenty of space for the kids to run around and play.
