Augill Castle Cumbria

About the venue

Augill Castle has a long tradition of memorable hospitality.

During its 160 years the castle has retained much of its atmosphere. It is a place where the background is of creaking floorboards, ticking clocks and distant laughter. Interesting antiques lurk in every corner and artifacts on every mantle have a genuine story to tell. If you can't boast a country house big enough for all your friends, Augill is the perfect venue for your own house party. Either midweek or over a weekend, the castle is available for exclusive use for a minimum of two nights. Augill is also licensed to hold civil marriages. The castle can host a formal wedding breakfast for up to forty with room for sixty for less formal celebrations. Today Simon & Wendy Bennett run the castle in a modern, informal style, with one over riding tenet: to do everything they can to ensure guests leave feeling they have stayed with friends.
