As the only castle in Cumbria where guests can sleep, Augill Castle is the ideal party palace for any house party occasion this festive season.
Set in 15 acres of stunning private grounds and boasting decadent, individually designed rooms complete with turrets, towers and roaring fires, this five-star fairytale castle has charm in abundance and promises a truly unforgettable house party.
Available all year round and sleeping up to 28, the Castle can be hired for exclusive use from £8,400, based on 28 people staying for two nights, including dinner, bed and breakfast.
In addition to luxuries including Egyptian cotton linens, homemade biscuits, fresh ground coffee and indulgent toiletries, Augill Castle promises partygoers a uniquely informal and flexible experience. With no fixed menus, timetables or limitations, every house party can be tailored to suit individual needs.
As if partying in a castle was not enough, Augill Castle can organise a gorgeous range of extras to make a get together even more magical. From indulgent afternoon teas, drinks and canapés, to a complete Bond Girl Experience where guests can learn how to abseil the tower, dress to kill and mix a cocktail, the Castle will never disappoint. Champagne murder mystery nights, quad biking, game shoots, sailing, casino evenings, wild west bucking broncos and even a 1967 MG Roadster with a fully laden picnic hamper can all be arranged too. Or for that extra special house party, Augill Castle even caters for weddings.
