Welcome to Muncaster Castle! Muncaster Castle, home to the Pennington family for 800 years, is a genuine treasure trove of art and antiques. Its Great Hall, Octagonal Library and elegant Dining Room are all windows on a grand past. But Muncaster's wild history reveals a flipside to life in a stately home. The castle evolved from the Pele Tower, built to repel marauding Scots. Those who stay here say it is haunted by ghosts, including the legendary Tom Fool. This is the ideal venue for functions, conferences, business meetings and product launches. Our friendly staff will help you to ensure that your event runs smoothly. As well as weddings Muncaster can offer the perfect venue for , private, family and group entertaining. Family events can be celebrated in the splendour of either of the two dining rooms, or for larger numbers the Great Hall can be used for Fork suppers or drinks reception. Corporate events can be given that extra edge as your guests soak up the atmosphere of the Castle that is still home to the Pennington family. Whatever the event Muncaster can offer a beautiful venue, with stunning gardens and grounds for you and your guests to enjoy. Gleaming family silver, snowy white linen, some that dates from the 1800's, grace the antique walnut table, and with fresh flowers and views of the Eskdale fells, you too can step onto the edge of paradise. We look forward to meeting you.
