Just brilliant - thanks and we always get a genuine warm welcome from all you staff and the ladies in the cafe too !

Warmest regards,

The visit was very informative and reached back 300 years to show what lives people experienced . The catering was excellent and varied. Hope to return one day

To Bolton Castle staff,

My father and I visited Bolton Castle today (Friday 21st July) and I wanted to express our gratitude for the wonderful experience we had. The Castle staff were all so friendly and welcoming.

I was most impressed with the Lad who facilitated the Falconry and Archery. His knowledge on the birds was phenomenal and his presence and confidence during his time showing the birds was wonderful to watch, we were really impressed.

We really appreciated his time spent answering questions and chatting with us and the other Castle guests.

Thank you so much for a great experience.

Well worth a visit Impromptu visit to the castle on our weekend van trip. The castle is easy to find with a good sized car park. The castle is full of history and information for each area telling you stories of the past! The cafe was really nice but the best thing for us was the falconry show at 3pm hosted by Kelly who was absolutely fantastic, enthusiastic and informative!

I rarely write emails like this but feel compelled to in this instance. We visited the castle on 29^th July, on a weekend when there were a number of volunteers demonstrating and talking about life in a Tudor household. It was absolutely brilliant. The patience of each person to talk us through different aspects of life and the amount of passion they had for the history was astonishing. The few hours we spent there was fantastic and we really want to come back.

I think it was Keith in the kitchen that mentioned they do this on four weekends a year, two for the Tudors and two for another period. Would it be possible to find out when they will be at the castle again?

Keep up the good work and please pass on our praise to the volunteers.
