The immense brick keep may be all that survives of the structure but it is vast and contains most of the features every schoolboy expects to find in a castle: dungeons to explore, a stone spiral staircase ascending the tower, a great hall with antechambers, fireplaces you can stand in, a restored moat, battlements and turrets.

We really liked this castle. Much more impressive inside than you initially think from the outside. Great views of the jets at RAF Conningsbury More

We had a brilliant time here. The information was very informative. The best bit was being at the top when the Lancaster, Spitfire and Hurricane flew past from nearby RAF Conningsby - Amazing!! The church next door is well worth a visit aswell. More

The gardens and the surrounds of the castle are kept beautifully. The castle is really interesting but has lots of spiral stairs so is not good for anyone with a disability. More

The views from the castle are amazing. If you are lucky enough a Spitfire might fly over from the nearby Battle of Britain airbase. As a NT location it delivers the goods. More
