Berkeley Castle is an ancient fortress home where the Berkeley family have lived since their ancestor, Robert Fitzharding, completed the Keep in the late 12th Century. Considered a jewel in the crown of British history, the history played out within the castle’s walls make it one of the most remarkable buildings in Britain. Once you have toured the castle you can visit the Butterfly House which is located within the old walled kitchen garden at Berkeley Castle, adjacent to the Yurt Restaurant.
