Muncaster Castle (Stable Block)
Muncaster Castle (Stable Block)

Muncaster Castle, home to the Pennington family for 800 years, is a genuine treasure trove of art and antiques. Its Great Hall, Octagonal Library and elegant Dining Room are all windows on a grand past. But Muncaster's wild history reveals a flipside to life in a stately home. The castle evolved from the Pele Tower, built to repel marauding Scots. Those who stay here say it is haunted by ghosts, including the legendary Tom Fool.
Visit the Tapestry Room if you dare.

The stable block at Muncaster has recently been renovated to provide very comfortable accommodation for up to 24 guests.
The Granary is a self contained apartment (set apart from other rooms) for up to 6 people. Shower room, TV
