Description
National Trust - Compton Castle is a unique monument of medieval defensive architecture. This 14th century fortified noble manor house has been owned by the Gilbert family for over 600 years, offering a fascinating insight into the history of the English aristocracy.
You'll be amazed by the original defensive elements - walls, towers and gates with drop bars, as well as the beautifully restored Great Hall with a model of Sir Humphrey Gilbert's ship.
The small but perfectly designed garden changes with the seasons, offering charming walks among the roses and autumn colors. This is the perfect place for history and nature lovers in one.
