  • An interesting remnant of a castle that is easy to view and has wonderful views of the surrounding countryside.
  • Great atmospheric castle ruin. Brilliant views from the top of the keep. Friendly staff.
  • Great views of the town, quite small, doesn't take long to visit
  • A great small castle to visit, a bit strange looking out over a co op and a balti house though. Having said that things change and the castle is still worth a visit.
  • Very nice castle
