Before the Christmas rush begins, enjoy an autumnal night away in the County Durham countryside, near Darlington.

November is a lovely time to visit Walworth Castle. On colder days, our three fires are lit, and the Castle feels particularly cosy. Wrap up for a walk through the woodland on our estate or, if the weather isn’t on your side, stay inside, enjoy good food and make an evening of it.

Our Autumn Escape Package includes tea or coffee and a seasonal slice of pumpkin pie waiting for you on arrival, a two-course dinner for two on the evening of your stay, and breakfast in the morning.

Available Sunday to Thursday throughout November, subject to availability, our Autumn Escapes can be booked via the link in the comments below.
