This magnificent castle is 'embowered by vast conifers, plantations which spill out into surrounding hills and fields', and which include 'the most magnificent collection of cedars in the British Isles' (Miles Hadfield, Country Life, June 1986) Surrounded by a deer park, the castle terraces overlook a lake and there are woodland and lakeside walks. The mature arboretum planted in the 19th century at the height of the Victorian passion for plant hunting, includes the tallest deodar cypress in Britain and other champion conifers. There is a good tree trail to follows. For more information please contact Eastnor Castle.
