Croft Castle
Croft Castle in Herefordshire is a near-perfect example of a Welsh border castle that evolved, across many centuries, into a gracious country house. The Croft family have called it home for all but a brief interlude over 900 years — a continuity that gives the place a rare, lived-in warmth. The surrounding parkland contains some magnificent ancient sweet chestnut avenues, and the views west towards the Welsh hills are simply glorious.
