Muncaster Castle
Edit ThisMuncaster Castle's earliest extant parts date from the 14th Century and it has been home to the Pennington family ever since. The interior has many works of art and the gardens contain a number of exotic plants, hte Gulf Stream facilitating the cultivation of species from distant parts. There is also an Owl Centre and a children's maze.
This is not a cheap visit and is possibly only worth the entrance price if you are going to spend some hours there.
