THERE will be no excuse to miss events and happenings at Eastnor Castle this year after the attraction launched its new website.

The new online presence has been timed to coincide with the public opening season at Easter and it has been four months in the making, with Ledbury-based web design team The Sketch Collective.

Eastnor Castle is surrounded by a beautiful deer park, arboretum and lake as well as being the home of the Hervey-Bathurst family, and visitors now have the opportunity to buy on-line discounted tickets for a wealth of events in advance.

General manager David Littlewood said: “We are very proud of the new website which we have been working on for the past few months.

"We wanted a clean looking, modern site which show cased the castle and beautiful grounds by using lots and lots of images. We are really pleased with the result and have been getting some really good feedback”.

The next event at the picturesque attraction is the Easter Hunt for Heroes which runs from Friday to Monday, April 18-21 between 11am and 5pm.
