This place is interesting. I remember a member of staff said this was made in the 1700s, but it looks new and polished.
I've never seen a Snooker table up close before. I thought they were a lot smaller.
I like how there are secret rooms for disabled people to get up stairs. The secret doors are literally painted to the wall, making it hard to spot. Hahaha!!! I love that.
There are also Mice toys in the building. You have to count how many mice you see, except the staff move them everytime you spot one. So although you think you saw ten, there's actually three being moved by the ninja staff

Eastnor Castle was a fantastic experience. They offer zip lining! Our kids hesitated to go inside the castle because there was so much to do outside. The zip lining was set up next to the kids playground. It was included in our admission and was worth the wait. Make sure to pack a lunch, there are lovely gardens to picnic in.

Eastnor Castle is a lovely day out, took the family, was a sweltering day, found some lovely shade, enjoyed the castle and the grounds, very Dog friendly.
Has a lovely small cafe and ice cream takeaway counter.
Lovely lake, great play area for children.
2 things that let it down, lack of signage on paths, you get a map but this doesn’t show all routes and no signage on the actual paths, we took a wheelchair user and struggled to push her on the newly laid shingles, they need compacting more, and only one set of toilets, not good when you go on one of the walks and a child needs to go, need

Absolutely fabulous place.
The grounds are pristine with a lot of rare flora and fauna (if you're into that type of stuff). There's a tree swing (tarzee) trail for kids and big adult type kids and plenty of very well landscaped area to admire.
Inside the castle itself, the guides were very informative and it's just stunning. The great hall needs to be seen to truly appreciate it.
Well kept amenities and the tea room was great. My favourite part was the ice cream, I went back twice it was so good.
All in all, a great day out and fun was had by the entire family.

What a great place! Very well thought out, plenty to do and see. The castle is amazing, an incredible experience to see the interior. There was courtyard entertainment with wild creatures. Ice creams etc, very good toilet facilities and picnic area. Playground, Land Rover Experience, gardens and much more. 2 days are needed to do it justice!
