Our story is your story too
Being a real castle you’d imagine our history is a rich tapestry indeed. Dating back to 1389 Lumley Castle holds stories
of betrayal, war and the visits of monarchs abound. But it’s your story we’d love to expand upon. Any visit to our castle
will arm you with stories to be retold time and time again of amazing dining, the genuine warmth of our people, newly
discovered tastes and events ranging from the most raucous Elizabethan Banquets to the most fairytale of castle weddings.
We’re ready to create stories for you. What will it be? Read on…
