Welcome to Berry Pomeroy Castle

We have introduced limits on visitor numbers to help keep everyone safe, and you won’t be able to visit without your booking confirmation. If you’re a Member, your ticket will be free, but you still need to book in advance. To book your visit, click here.

Although things might be a little different when you visit, you’ll still be able to enjoy exploring the places where history really happened. And you’ll still be given a warm and safe welcome by our friendly – if socially distant – staff and volunteers.

• We’ve introduced new measures at Berry Pomeroy Castle to keep you safe on your visit.

• Gatehouse - The Gatehouse and St Margaret's Tower are open but there is no access to the three gun emplacements.
• East Terrace - The East Terrace will remain closed. 
• Shop - The shop will be open, but there will be limits on the number of people allowed in. A one-way route may also be in place.
• Toilets - The toilets will be open and cleaned throughout the day. Hand sanitiser will be available where necessary
