Dogs are welcome inside the castle grounds, Tack Room Café and Victorian Stables. Look out for our paw-some new dog-sitting service. Your dog will love being made a fuss of by the wonderful trained volunteers from our charity of the year Northumberland Dog Rescue. This service is being provided on selected dates within the Castle grounds so owners can enjoy browsing our staterooms knowing four-legged members of the family are having a special paw-ty of their own!
