Key features

Barholm Castle is a sensitively restored 15th-century tower house set within approximately 2.75 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds.
Extensive restoration in the early 2000s transformed the castle from a ruin into a remarkable and comfortable family home while preserving its historic character.
The accommodation spans four floors, linked by a traditional turnpike stair, offering four bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The impressive great hall occupies the entire first floor, featuring a striking painted ceiling, deep-set windows, and a grand open fireplace.
A rooftop terrace provides spectacular panoramic views across the surrounding countryside to the Solway Coast and the Isle of Man.
The mature grounds include ponds, a walled garden, woodland planting, a Victorian-style greenhouse, and a diverse range of carefully designed outdoor spaces.
