What to expect
Expect a measured pace through the castle's principal rooms, where your guide contextualises the furnishings, paintings, and ceremonial function of each space. St George's Chapel, the spiritual heart of the castle, demands time to absorb its soaring perpendicular Gothic form and the detail work within. You'll move between interior spaces and outdoor vantage points, so layered clothing works best. The walk is social but unhurried—your guide answers questions as they arise rather than delivering a scripted monologue.

Wear comfortable walking shoes; surfaces vary from smooth stone to gravel. The castle can feel cool indoors year-round. Admission tickets are included; bring no extra cash for entry. Public transport links the town well if you're not arranging a driver. Wheelchairs and pushchairs are welcome on all routes.
