Short Company description

Famously family friendly, renowned for its laid back friendliness and warmth, Augill Castle can be whatever you want it to be.

Built in 1837 for 'a gentleman of considerable means and leisure' to entertain his weekend guests, Wendy & Simon Bennett now run the castle in a modern and informal style with relaxed service, five star national award winning guest accommodation, exceptional food and a genuine desire to create a comfortable place to unwind.

With accommodation in eleven very different bedrooms, five grand reception rooms and fifteen acres of gardens and grounds, there is space at the castle to relax, be part of it all or tuck yourself away.

A country house happiest when it is full, our unique quirky castle in Cumbria's aptly named Eden valley is perfect whether you are on your own, as a family or part of an intimate small wedding, laid back house party, family gathering or informal business meeting.

Detailed description:

Augill Castle has eleven bedrooms, all of an equal standard but each with a very different character. Some have four poster beds, others four poster baths. There are turrets for wardrobes, stained glass windows and big views. All our bedrooms are decorated with bold colours and furnished with antiques. There's certainly no chintz but you won't find safe modern interiors with lots of beige, cream and black here either...

You may find such unusual additions to your room as a piano in the bathroom, a church pew next to the loo, an African tribal hanging or Indonesian blowpipe above your bed.

There’s a decanter of sherry to help you unwind and a teddy bear on each bed to keep you company.

Downstairs, roaring fires in winter may entice you not to venture out, but if you do there are 15 acres of landscaped grounds to explore and Holly, our willing Labrador to show you the way. We have great walking straight from the front door.
