Bolton Castle is a spectacular medieval fortress, situated in the heart of the beautiful Yorkshire Dales, on the boundary of the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
The castle was built in 1399 by Richard le Scrope, 1st Lord Scrope of Bolton and Lord Chancellor of England. Bolton has never been sold, and remains in the private ownership of Lord Bolton, Richard le Scropes' descendant.
Bolton Castle is open to visitors all year round. There are five floors, sparsely furnished with tableaux depicting castle life in the 15th century.
