Group Visits
Muncaster Castle makes a wonderful full day out for any group. Our gardens, Castle, Hawk and Owl Centre and The Weapons Hall offer something for everyone. The breath-taking vista of the Western Lakeland fells and Scafell Pike (England’s highest mountain) mean the views alone make the trip worthwhile. We recommend a minimum of 2½ hours at Muncaster but many groups find that they can spend up to five or more hours here quite happily. Remember to pack your camera!
Whether you choose to simply explore the grounds and Castle at your own leisure or pre-book one of our specialist tours, walks and talks, covering a variety of fascinating topics, we look forward to welcoming you to Muncaster.
For groups of younger visitors please see the Education Visit page for information about our Educational Workshops which we can adapt to suit the age range and requirements of your group.
