This extraordinary castle dates back to the 15th century and is one of the best examples of an Elizabethan brick castle. The gardens are Grade-II listed and, in total, the castle grounds extend to 300 acres (121 ha).

The extraordinary estate is open to visitors throughout the summer period and there are often events going on, such as medieval weekends, particularly great for families. The castle is occasionally open for visitors but is mostly used as a study centre, and a wedding and conference venue.
