The castle is lovely to walk around. The dungeons were good fun and the light/water fountain show was fantastic. There's so much to do and see. So many buttons to press and lots of rides for the kids throughout the grounds. We easily spent the day here and the kids loved it so much we went back for another full day. It has a couple of places to eat, toilets throughout and is dog friendly.

Let's get one thing straight. This place isn't just for kids! We don't have kids, and we absolutely loved our visit. It was money well spent, the gardens are spectacular, the castle is crammed full of interesting 'stuff', it's quirky, it's fun, the staff are friendly and helpful.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! We've probably visited 90% of all family attractions in Devon and Cornwall and I'd say this is in my top 3.
