Middleton Castle, a 600-year-old fortress complete with a water-filled moat and embattled parapets, has officially opened its doors by joining Europe’s largest property management company Altido.
Built during the reign of Henry IV, before he was ousted from the throne during the Wars of the Roses in 1461, Middleton Castle has opened to the public for the first time.
The Grade I listed building can comfortably sleep 30 guests across 15 bedrooms with accommodation that includes two separate cottages, The Lodge and Keepers Cottage.
Steeped in history and set within West Norfolk countryside, guests looking for a stay in the castle can enjoy freestanding baths, a billiards room, summer house, croquet lawn and a sweeping driveway whilst being guaranteed exclusive private use of the estate.
Will Parry, CEO of Altido, said: “We’re delighted to be opening the doors of this historic property. A castle of such proportion and size offers guests a luxurious, secluded retreat that doesn’t compromise when it comes to character and space. Our team will be using all their expertise to combine modern-day hospitality with a property that’s so old it predates the Tudors.”
