Brilliant place. Low price. The science centre is great for kids with over a 100 well presented experiments for the young ones.

We had such a good time. It's a beautiful place with such an interesting history as well. We had the tour and it was quite fun! The place is alive because it's a campus. The gardens are also pretty and there are peacocks. Free parking. There's a tea house and shop and an interpretation centre. Up the hill there's a astronomy observatory. The village is also quite pretty.

Beautiful castle, especially from outside. The massive structure and the moat around it give to this building a really magic, fairy tale aura. Ideal for great outdoor pictures. Inside there's no much to see really but you can always attend the various wedding events that are often scheduled.

The castle holds a special place for us as wife went to school here and we were married here. It was good to return and have a good look around.<br><br>I highly recommend the guided tour. Our tour guide Bryan was both informative and numerous and kept everyone entertained. So much interesting history here.<br><br>The gardens and surrounding area are beautiful. Take a walk to the Folly and see the fantastic gardens. Walk in the magical woods.<br><br>The cream tea in the cafe is a must eat too!

Was a lovely day out. Went for the Easter hunt, lots of activities. Worst thing of the whole day was the wait in the cafe there, over an hour to get a cup of tea!!

Very beautiful grounds and gardens. Such a shame that the castle isn't really open to the public. You can only see the inside on very early set tours, IF you get there early enough otherwise you're just turned away. You have to be there atleast an hour early before the start of the tour! Most uninviting now that its a University. They could at the very least make one tower or part thereof accessible to the visitors.<br>We also didn't see any deer as advertised. We seached the large grounds for any animals but only found an empty animal-habitat, and one peacock. Strange, since it was a lovely sunny day with very few visitors to the gardens.<br>WARNING!! The Glutenfree items in the Tearoom are NOT GLUTENFREE, or at the very least highly contaminated!!! There were also NO options whatsoever for the Lactose-intolerant (milk-allergy) Not even any creme-free icecreams, Soy or waterbase ice! The staff was very unhelpful and seemed completely ignorant regarding food allergy's alltogether!! For a University there were no intelligent people to be found on the premisis! Service was very disappointing!<br>However the Gardens are well kept and the Rose Gardens were gorgeous!!!
