Great car and bike collection, very friendly staff. Expensive entry cost, but ok if you are into cars. The tea room is a bit dated with a very limited range of snacks and it is also expensive.

Guess you really have to be a petrol head, quite costly to look at old vehicles, however the cost does cover looking around the castle tower and grounds. Took us around 3 hrs which the ticket seller said. The tower was a good leg stretch with views of the sea and Great Yarmouth wheel from the top.

Well worth visiting. The motor collection is one of the best I've seen. The grounds are amazing. Only disappointment was very little in the way of food. No sandwiches, just very light snacks, I.e. sausage rolls and cakes bars. Don't let that put you off. Just take a picnic.

Superb and enormous collection of cars from pre 1900 to modern day. Plenty of helpful staff to answer questions if required. The castle tower is well worth visiting but make sure you get there before they close it at 3.45pm! Nice little cafe but also good open and covered picnic spaces available if you bring your own food. Pleasant little woodland walk. It's worth arriving early to allow plenty of time to get around everything.

This was a chance visit that turned into a very unexpected great day out, the castle and grounds was the smallest part of the day, we enjoyed the short woodland walk and climbing the stairs up the tower. But the highlight for my husband was the vintage car and motorcycle museum/collection, which is truly outstanding and beautifully presented.

CAFE WAS CASH ONLY (at time of posting, just a heads up initially for those looking to eat/drink there) This is a really awesome car collection over all and when combined with the added castle ruins and tower climb there is plenty to see. Some would probably say this is expensive, but for a once in a lifetime chance to see some of the cars in the museum in person, I’d say it’s worth it for those interested in them, less so if all you want to see is the castle.
