The gardens are still lovely with flowers in the spring walk,swans on the mirror lake and beautiful walks. The cafe and shop were open and we enjoyed a delicious hot pasty. We'll be back after lockdown to see the amazing spring flowers.

Visited when the covid 19 restrictions were in place, so the house was closed. However the grounds to the place are lovely and so nice to walk through. Paths make it easy with a pram and the gardens/flowers were just stunning. Plenty of parking and a gift shop and cafe on site. A great place to visit and would recommend it.

Great site and a stunning location. I recommend the blue trail walk. Although it is uphill, if you go past the church you can get stunning views across from Morecomb bay in the south to the lake hills in the north.

An absolutely beautiful place, I highly recommend a visit. The castle was closed on the day we visited but we spent a few hours in the gardens which are stunning and accessible to everyone.

Loved and enjoyed it! Visited a lot of castles in my life and most of them are just about big walls, rooms, bedrooms and armors... Sizergh is different. Everything here is just about the right size. Make sure to look for Charlie, while you are there. It's the black cat, living there :)))

5/ 5

A fabulous property and grounds, partly occupied by the owners, but under the care of the National Trust. Popular cafe [and shop] open to the public; locally sourced produce, including from their own kitchen gardens. Grounds include a stunning rock garden, lake, topiary, wood, orchard, and walking trails. House tours open seasonally, filled with artifacts and fixtures. Free parking and entrance for members.
