Such a beautiful castle, completely fell in love with its chapel and the main hall. It can make an amazing day out, walking through its walls. Amazing history, nice store, reasonably priced. They always have events happening in the evenings, concerts and movie screenings. We visited castle twice during our road trip through UK - on the way to Scotland to just visit it and on the way back to attend the medieval music concert in the main hall. It was an incredible experience. Would love to come back for screening of Harry Potter or lord of the rings movies. When you buy a ticket it is valid for the whole year so we hope to come back to UK soon to visit again. Friendly guides.
Well preserved castle with a neat museum inside. The uses of each room and the daily lives of its medieval residents are displayed in each room. There are also some spring staircases that take you up to the top of the towers of the castle, which offer excellent views of the city below.nnGo as early as possible to avoid the crowds later on in the day.
This is the castle that the city of Newcastle is named after. It's located right in the centre of the city so any Visitor will have no problem finding it. They have wonderful tours of the castle and even if it's closed, it's very nice to simply to walk around the castle and look at it from different viewpoints. It's origins go back to the Roman occupation of Britain.
Coming from Canada, we can truly say that we don't see attractions like this back home... even though we found it rather confined, that's the genuine mark of the times! So we can't fault it for that. I found it was the ideal balance between having displays, informative plaques, etc. and being more austere. Plenty of stair-climbing, some rather on the steep side, but my daughters loved that bit... and going up on the roof to snap some photos of the Newcastle skyline.
If you like your history this is a must place to visit. Amazing castle, but you will need a level of fitness and mobility to climb all the steps. Fantastic views across Newcastle and Gateshead from the roof.
