We had an experience of ‘once in a lifetime’ in Castle Ellen. Because the castle had my own name ‘Ellen Lambert’ it felt a little bit like ‘home’ ;-)
Our host Michael took his time and told us everything we wanted to know about the history of the castle and the Lambert family. He invited us even to stay a week ;-)) He gave us a tour of the castle and the gardens. Michael was an entertaining, charming and sympathetic host. Sometimes it felt a little bit like being in a spooky castle with the dirt, the spiderwebs all around and the multiple pieces of art. But also this aspect makes it an unforgettable experience.
We hope one day the castle will be in it’s full glory again!
