A fairly well-preserved castle with good views over the surrounding area. Has a car park and toilets. The ticket office was closed, so we put money in the honesty box. Good signage inside the castle. Not really for people that have difficulty with stairs.

There are plenty of castle ruins you pay an entry fee to see and wonder if you get good value for money. Castle Rising isn't one of them. With a £6 adult entry fee, this is really good value. Well preserved castle keep, with a maintained circular walk around the raised embankment around it, you'll spend about an hour here. In the sun, the scenery is spectacular. Well done, English Heritage.

Every year we drive by and think about stopping here but never get round to it. This year we did and wished we had done it sooner, it is so close to the main road but hidden from view. Lovely to walk around the insides, although such a shame there is so much '2024' graffiti all over the walls

Well worth the entrance fee. So much to see. Walk around the ramparts and climb all the winding staircases inside the building. So like what you 8magine as a castle but was a hunting lodge. Not really suitable for wheelchair access. Toilets in car park.

Castle Rising is a fascinating site with a rich history, notably mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1066 and once owned by the half-brother of William the Conqueror. The castle is remarkably well-preserved, offering a tangible connection to its storied past. Despite its historical significance, I believe this site is often underrated. It’s definitely worth a visit for those interested in medieval history and architecture.
