  • star rating  TRULY AMAZING! Watson family is so humble.  - Rockingham Castle was one of our best days as a family day out. The staff at the castle are so kind and helpful.
    The owners of the Castle are... read more so humble and sweet. When we was there we got hungry, we approached the food cabin inside the castle. We all has Sausage rolls, cold drinks and coffee. Then we went into the castle with our tickets. We had an amazing time inside seeing all the things inside the castle. One of the staff was happy to spend their time telling us the history of the castle. We learnt about the amazing Watson family who owns the Castle. We heard about a lady called Elizabeth who is the wife of James toegether they own the castle. My son said I wish I could meet her to the staff who was telling us the story, the staff told us you can, they told us that she is inside the food cabin serving customers food. We was so shocked, the lady who had so kindly served us our food was the owner of the castle. We ran outside to say hi and to apologise because we didn't know she was the owner. It just shows how humble the Watson family is. They own this amazing place and still do the jobs to keep visitors happy. Truly an amazing place. We're booking our Christmas at the castle this year. Hopefully we get to meet James and the whole family. Elizabeth is truly so humble. My wife said she reminds us of Princess Diana. Which is true. Crazy visit. Loved it.

It was nice to see the property is still in use as a home by the Watson family. All of the staff were friendly and everything so well cared for, well worth the admission of £17.50.
