  • Recently we visited Bolsover Castle in Bolsover, Derbyshire. It has been voted the spookiest and most haunted castle by English Heritage Members. It's a beautiful castle to go and visit. In my opinion it is rather strange though, you have a mix of ruins and then some incredible artwork featured in the castle's keep! It's a remarkable castle and has some rich history. Join us as we show you around and give you the story behind Bolsover Castle.
    Bolsover Castle is owned and operated by English Heritage, we definitely recommend you visit!

      Go in, it’s a good visit. Years and years ago, my grandad was one of the army of workmen working on it. Over years, I’ve been through all of the public places and some special events. It’s always a treat.

    Shame that most of the lion-heads are gone from the fireplaces. My parents still have a casting that my grandad took off one of them while they were restoring the castle.
