Lake District Day Out

For a fabulous Lake District day out, Muncaster ticks all boxes on the requirement list, from pet friendly to child friendly and all facilities available to accommodate the disabled. There is no hurdle to be found at this majestic property.

The castle contains a wealth of architectural features and artefacts from a wide span of English history, including a rare portrait of king Henry VI, an Elizabethan banqueting table, and also an impressive library containing approximately 6,000 books.

In August 2005, some archaeological investigation was conducted in the castle grounds and an Architectural Heritage Report was produced. It is planned to conduct a full architectural survey in the future, to examine the different phases of the building's construction.
