Stunningly kept grounds, really friendly staff that were fully transparent about issues they had at the time.nnSays a lot about a place that takes care of the little things. Well worth the entry price and the walk up the stairs was fun!nnKeep an eye out for the hidden tunnel!nnAnd the town is only a short walk from the car park, plenty of places to browse and a beautiful local butchers. Lovely day out.
Visited on a cloudy Sunday and didn’t expect to see many people, but a steady stream of visitors came in. There’s quite a lot of ruined castle to look at over an expanse of land. Info boards throughout but I wish we bought the guidebook on this occasion. The tunnel running from the kitchen to the tower is great fun. I’ve not seen another one at a castle. Only disabled parking available about 3 spaces and all other parking is in the town. Parking is free at South St car park on a Sunday which is about 5 minutes walk away.
Ashby De La Zouch Castle is a hidden gem in Leicestershire. Its rich history, stunning views, and interactive features make it a rewarding experience for visitors of all ages.nWe visited here on a foggy day which made the experience even better as it added to the ambience .nnThe castle dates back to the 12th century but is best known for its transformation into a grand manor house by William, Lord Hastings, in the 15th century. It played a notable role during the English civil war. Walking through the ruins, you can almost feel the weight of its history.nnOne of the standout features is the Hastings Tower, which visitors can climb and it has total 98 steps. Once you reached to the top, the view is breathtaking. There is also an underground tunnels that you can walk through, once used to connect the tower to the kitchen, are another unique and exciting element.nnThere is a small visitor centre with a shop offering souvenirs and books, as well as refreshments available on-site.nnA small parking just outside the castle also there is another paid parking available on walking distance.
Really beautiful place but wouldn't recommend on a weekend just because parking is such an issue. There are car parks around town but you will need to walk. Love the audio but was a bit confusing to find the chronology. There are picnic tables and I believe they serve a couple of drinks and I spied the ice cream!
Not the biggest castle in the country but a nice 2 hours exploring and the tunnel makes it a good adventure for kids too.
