Take a walk through the beautiful gardens.
Our photos earlier from the Herbaceous Border were proving so popular we decided to do a little walk through video! This is looking spectacular at the moment and is well worth a trip to come and experience it for yourself!

This stunning walk that circles the lake, features the jetty and bird hide, and a host of wonderful wildlife and nature!
A peaceful walk away from the hustle and bustle around the castle area, I highly recommend this walk!

It is not open at the moment but the walk around the castle will bring you on a wonderful journey through the history of the castle, caves and dungeons but also allow you to explore the fascinating Poison Garden and Carnivorous Courtyard. pic.twitter.com/m2OB6lHtL3
