Eastnor Castle

Originally built as a fortress to guard the Welsh borders, Eastnor Castle is a historic visitor attraction nestled in the Malvern Hills, just a short drive from the market town of Ledbury.

Dating back to the 19th century, the castle is open to visitors on selected dates from Easter until the end of September, and offers the chance to explore impressive state rooms, rich interiors, medieval armour and fine art.

Visitors and their four-legged friends are also invited to explore Eastnor Castle’s breath-taking lake and magnificent arboretum, with the option to freely roam the landscape or follow a set trail of landmarks.

The castle has plenty to keep young visitors entertained, including an adventure playground, a knight’s maze, a junior assault course and a woodland play area, allowing children to clamber through the treetops as they take in the spectacular countryside views.

A varied events timetable is also on offer each year, hosting everything from its annual Chilli Festival and Easter egg hunt, to alfresco theatre and family fun days.

The venue can be hired on an exclusive basis for weddings, private party and corporate events, including a variety of accommodation spanning beautiful bedrooms to holiday cottages.
