A beautiful castle which is free to enter. You do not need to go through gates et cetera it is free to visit at any time of the day as there is open access and you can climb on the rocks. A great place for kids and young at heart. Also lots of green space around if a picnic and playing on.

Spofforth Castle is a fortified manor house owned by the Percy family it is situated in a grass area. Ideal for dog walkers and free to enter. Ruinous now but still interesting to explore. Parking is on road then a short walk across grass. Worth a visit

Free, unattended castle. Just park on the roadside opposite and walk in. Information boards with history, facts and dates. A couple of picnic tables down the hill. Great, free, local historic attraction.

Lovely open space out front - great place for a picnic. Not much to the castle itself and not particularly accessible by wheelchair, but the fact that it’s free and well maintained makes it a pleasant enough spot and my two year old loved it! - parking is limited roadside although we caught it on a good day…

Visited this site today, which is located within the village on the main road. Parking appears to be a small area adjacent to the low perimeter wall (but was full of residents cars as no one was at the castle). Finally parked on street outside someone's house, which may cause issues in summer.
Site is unmanned and free to enter.
Dog friendly and nice large enclosed grass area to exercise them.
Couple of useful information boards and a nice little wander around.

A beautiful ruined castle in a small village - it's just on a village green and is easily accessible although parking is a challenge with only limited on street parking - definitely well worth a visit if you're in the area or are a castle fan!
