Muncaster Castle
Muncaster Castle, home to the Pennington
family for 800 years, is a genuine treasure trove of art
and antiques. Its Great Hall, Octagonal Library and elegant
Dining Room are all windows on a grand past. But Muncaster's
wild history reveals a flipside to life in a stately home.
The castle evolved from the Pele Tower, built to repel marauding
Scots. Those who stay here say it is haunted by ghosts,
including the legendary Tom Fool.
Visit the Tapestry Room if you dare.
