With a bit of intermittent weather abound, there was a bit
of a debate as to where to visit the following day. Eventually we settled on
Berkeley Castle as where better would there be to take shelter? It was a bit
expensive but we made sure to get our money’s worth. On arrival we discovered
that a free guided tour was to take place; so we spent some time wandering the
grounds and taking some scenic shots before returning to the departure point. After
watching a welcome video, we discovered that our tour group was to be a party
of four led by a lovely lady who was dressed for the part of librarian. We
particularly enjoyed the cellar where a local microbrewery leaves its casks to
age, and the refurbishment of the kitchen when a film crew came to call. The
castle’s well and dungeon was also very impressive. After the tour we decided
to walk round at our own pace to revisit in more detail and to pose for
photographs.
