We enjoyed this more than Windsor Castle!

Even though Bolton Castle gets good reviews, having visited multiple castles our expectations weren’t that high. This was better than most castles we’ve visited (and we live not far from Windsor Castle) , our kids loved every minute and didn’t want to leave. A brilliant, fun day out for all of us. The highlights being the bird of prey show and the Mary Queen of Scots show. I strongly recommend visiting if you’re in the area and looking for a fun, interactive, educational and value for money day out.

Excellent visit!

What a fabulous place the castle has a lot to offer both variety of complete rooms and scale. The grounds were lovely (boar family!) and the falconry display was excellent - led brilliantly by the staff member. The staff were all friendly and helpful and topped off with a pot of tea from friendly tea room staff.

I'd just like to pass on our thanks for a lovely visit yesterday. We had a fantastic day at the castle; the falconry display was fun and informative, the archery demonstration was fab, and nicely rounded off with the wild boar feeding at 16:00. Kelly was brilliant, but very special thanks to Dave who helped make the past come alive; Eleanor and Joseph had a day they will never forget thanks to the generosity of your time and enthusiasm (the parents too)! It's hands down the best visit we've ever had to a historic property and we'd recommend it to anyone. We're happy for you to post the review on the website if you wanted.

Thanks again, and we'll definitely come back again if we're in the area.
