Built around 1150 this Norman castle is set amongst wonderful countryside. Berkeley has witnessed many historical events
and the family which bear its name have also given their name to locations around the world; from Berkeley Square in London to
Berkeley Hundred Plantation in Virginia and Berkeley University in California.
Berkeley Castle has been lived in by the same family for over 900 years. It is where history has been made. Where Edward II was murdered, where the Barons of the West gathered before Magna Carta and where Queen Elizabeth I hunted and played bowls.

Berkeley Castle is less than 5 miles from Tudor Caravan Park and is a safe bicycle ride along the country roads of National Cycle Route #41 or about 5 minutes by car. Why not visit the Edward Jenner Museum while you're there.
