Hi, Thanks for your question. It's about an hour, but do leave extra time to admire the scenery. As the Castle is a on the walk, consider booking us as part of your day out.

Hi, Thanks for your question. The only 'indoor' space at Dunstanburgh Castle currently accessible is our shop. English Heritage are asking all visitors to pre-book in order to manage visitor levels. Our busiest days are Sundays and Tuesdays. Dunstanburgh Castle is a mile and a half walk along the coastal path from Craster, or a simialr distance from Embleton to the north. If you require further information please give us a call at the Castle and we will endeavour to help. We look forward to welcoming you.

Hi, Yes it is. We recommend that dogs are kept on a lead as we're quite high up and have a couple of sharp drops. We look forward to welcoming you.

No it’s English heritage, concession for NT members free.

DOGS ARE ALLOWED! Unlike the national trust (who are only partly responsible for this site) English Heritage welcome dogs at the majority of their sites.

Yes, but check the hours on the website as they vary in the winter

you can hang around the castle but i never heard of ghostly presences .You are weird one LOL

HI sorry about delay but been away. To visit the Castle would not have parking by the castle and the car park is a few 100 metres away And a slight climb. However there are view point where you can see the castle.

Yes - both National Trust and English Heritage members have free access

Looking at the EH website, it says (for the castle - sorry, I can't post the link) 'Dogs on lead allowed, assistance dogs welcome.' There is a huge amount of space, so I imagine it is perfect for dogs. The walk from Craster to the castle is just over a mile, and I saw quite a few dogs being walked, or free to run about. If you want a longer walk, there is superb Craster to Low Newton coastal walk, on the NT website (take a printed copy of the walk, because there is little to no phone signal). It is 6 miles and heralded as one of top 10 best walks in Britain. The walk along the vast beach is ideal for dogs, and there were a few locals with dogs already. When I stopped at The Greys Inn, Embleton for lunch they were very welcoming for dogs and put bowls of water out for them because lots of walkers had them.
