If you are near Stokesay do stop off and visit it. And do use the audio guide which is full of quirky facts and makes the whole thing come alive. A super cafe with great soup, coffee and cakes rounds off the trip.

Stokesay is amazing. Get buildings, in good repair, and a reunification guided tour on a tape. The information covered lots of detail and was imaginatively presented. Also, you could stop and move on or here it all as you wished. On a cold winters day you could really imagine the rigors and the joy of life here. The hot soup from the cafe was terrific as well.

If you like this sort of place then you'll love Stokesay Castle. It has a strange attraction, because apart from the outer walls, there is almost nothing left, no 'proper furnished rooms' just the echoes of 700+ years of family living.Your really do need some help to understand the site, so the guide book (which we used) or the audio is a must I think.We were there on a cold dark damp December Sunday, and we all loved it. There was a Tea shop and gift shop open, staffed by friendly helpful people. Shame the Gate house is not open to see, except for the tea room area.

Spent to day at a reenactment which was good, but very noisy gun shots etc... Very informative kids liked it. Tea room was tiny and a bit pricey

Went on a wet and grey winter day but the castle still and felt looked fabulous. Small but very interesting. Was given a map but found it difficult to orientate in the castle . Some simple interpretation boards would have helped significantly.
