DUE TO THE CURRENT CORONAVIRUS SITUATION, THE BOLTON CASTLE TEAM HAVE TAKEN THE DECISION, FOR THE SAFETY OF OUR CUSTOMERS, TO TEMPORARILY CLOSE UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. PLEASE FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND THE WEBSITE AND NEWSLETTERS  FOR UPDATES AS THEY OCCUR. WE AT BOLTON CASTLE WILL WELCOME YOU BACK SOON. Bolton Castle in Wensleydale provides a huge range of exciting things to do in Yorkshire. From family days out to educational trips and historic tours you will find a raft of sights, sounds and smells which bring the castle to life and make for a truly memorable trip. Bolton Castle is one of the country’s best preserved medieval castles; originally built as one of the finest and most luxurious homes in the land, the castle bears the scars of over 600 years of fascinating history. The castle is still in the private ownership of Lord Bolton, the direct descendant of the castle’s original owner Sir Richard le Scrope. If you are travelling to Bolton Castle via the  Wensleydale Railway, WWW.WENSLEYDALERAIL.COM the line ends approx. one mile from the Castle at Redmire and we are offering 20% OFF TICKET PRICE for their passengers.

Please keep dogs on the footpaths, under close control and always on leads

around livestock.
