“If ever there was a romantic notion of a castle, it’s exemplified by Broughton Castle. From entering the tower gate over the moat, wandering the historic hallways, to looking down from the rooftop to gorgeous gardens below, it was my favorite site of the week. Our guide was excellent, and the rooms were glorious. The layout of the formal walled gardens was perfect, yet the rambling borders outside the walls, were overflowing with cottage garden favorites.”
