Another fantastically looked after english heritage site. rich in history with loads to explore and learn about. the staff as ever are a wash with knowledge of the site, they make the experience that much enjoyable.
We've visited a lot of castles as a family, so it was interesting to see carlisle castle for the first time. while there is no doubt it's a castle, the impact of modern military use has completely changed the feel i imagine the place used to have. still very interesting. there is also a military museum on site which was excellent.
A castle of contrasts, it is still an active military site with a cadet headquarters and ta base as well as retaining its identity as a historic seat of power. it also has a small but excellent military museum and a café to enjoy a cuppa and a slice of cake. well worth a visit.
Been here a few times over the years. the castle always impresses me. i've been round the castle and the military museum before and they are very interesting. i find english heritage properties generally better value than a lot of historic properties. book online in advance and save 10%.
Beautiful castle, really shows the history of the north west of the country. loved seeing it and the historical culture of the engineering works. you get a real feel of tudor england in here
