This picturesque moated medieval castle was built in the 1370s by Sir John de la Mare. It's heavily influenced by French design and features a compact layout with four round corner towers and thick defensice walls.

Awesome castle with moat and a pub opposite... the best combination... Oh and the chips are worth the trip washed down with a crisp Somerset cider!
