[EH] Bolsover Castle. The Little Castle Awaits. Nov 2018

With spectacular views over Derbyshire, the fairy-tale Stuart mansion, Bolsover Castle, was designed to entertain and impress. Its reputation for revelry lives on. Behind these doors are the lavish rooms of the Little Castle (referring to a section of the castle).

 

Bolsover Castle, Derbyshire, is an exceptional 17th-century aristocratic retreat which was built on the site of a medieval castle founded in the 12th century by the Peverel family.

The site is now in the care of English Heritage and is a Grade I listed building and a Scheduled Ancient Monument (nationally important).
