This is a must visit castle if you’re in the vicinity, the has its own car park although the pay & display machine was not working when we visited. The was also closed for refurbishment. There are however, two pubs close by offering refreshments during the usual pub opening times. Being so close to the border between England and Wales the castle has seen many battles, destructions and rebuilds going back hundreds of years. Fortunately, people who care have done a good job of preserving and restoring the remains. There are boards to give you information about its history. Legend says that the chalice of the Holy Grail was hidden here and may still be hidden in a secret chamber beneath the castle! Plenty of car parking and a on site. A monument of battles fought over the centuries. Grounds were well manicured, and with their visual aids, you can imagine the splendor that the place once was. Great spot for lazy days and picnics. This is only a small but well worth a visit. While we were there we saw quite a number of people visiting. It would be a great place to go for a picnic on a sunny day. There are plenty of signs giving information about the castle's history. The moat still has a good level of water in it and a good many ducks seem to have made it home. Next time we visit we will have a wander around the village too. There is a good sized car park and toilets on the site. It should also be mentioned that there is an excellent there too which was spotlessly clean with great service. Outside the are bagsof duck food at £1 per bag so great for keeping the kids amused for a while. 705. Years old,very relaxing with a lovely little where you can relax and unwind, well worth a visit. Set on the main road in the beautiful village of Whittington is this lovely Castle and ruins. There's parking at the rear of the Castle at a nominal £2 so great value. The whole is kepted immaculately. Over the water through the gate at the front of the castle you'll find a nice little to grab refreshments on the right hand side. The isn't big but we'll worth investigating for an hour or two. Today the wasn't open as I was there early morning but I'm definitely going to return to have the full experience. We arrived when there was a plant sale on in the car park. Otherwise it’s a quiet place for a picnic or there is a nice-looking cafe, and a pub next door. Beautiful castle, beautiful grounds, lovely staff! Parking was free & ample space. Would be stunning for a wedding.
