Compton Castle

Compton Castle opens for the season just in time for Easter. Over the Easter holidays the Cadbury Easter Egg Hunt will be taking place. A menagerie of medieval animals has taken over the garden at Compton Castle and hidden all the Easter eggs. Can you join the hunt to find all their favourite hiding places in the garden?

Little ones love castles, and at Compton there is plenty to keep them enchanted. They can dress up in medieval costumes, play traditional games in the garden, and complete the trails.

In the castle there are the charming and historical Great Hall, Sub Solar and Solar to explore, as well as the medieval kitchen and chapel.

Explore the rose garden, take a seat in the orchard, discover the medieval style knot garden and soak up some sunshine on the sunny lawns in Compton Castle's garden.

There are lots of different ways to volunteer at the four places in the English Riviera: Bradley, Coleton Fishacre, Compton Castle and Greenway. Find out about the different volunteer roles at these places and how you can get involved.

A great team of volunteers help to keep Compton Castle ticking like clockwork. Volunteer gardener Bob gives us an insight into the well-oiled machine, and shares what he enjoys the most.
