Tips

My family and I had a wonderful day here at Sarum Castle. We spent the day exploring and having a treasure hunt, climbing hills and rolling down to the bottom again. This place can really bring out the inner child in every adult and the imagination of every child. Parts of the castle are free and others you can pay for entry if you wish. Nice clean toilets and free parking ! Lovely views and walks with plenty of space to play and set up tents and play items and picnic.
A definite thumbs up !!!
