Situated in a spectacular position on top of a large crag above the Cheshire countryside is Beeston Castle. This popular family attraction allows visitors to see across up to 8 counties from the Pennines to the Welsh mountains on a clear day from this formerly impenetrable fortress.
Around the castle are 40 acres of beautiful woodlands to explore, with wildlife trails for the children to follow, and even the chance to find the lost treasure of Richard II.
The castle also features 4000 years of history at the ‘Castle of the Rock’ exhibition.
Note: Members of English Heritage can get into Beeston Castle and 450 other English Hertitage owned attractions for free – click here for details of joining.
