My boyfriend took me to Hammond Castle in November 2003 for my birthday and it was wonderful!! I was in awe! The views from the castle were breathtaking and I loved exploring all the rooms and winding staircases. The Great Hall was amazing and no photo seems to do it justice...you have to be there to really experience it. The "pool room" was very interesting....just to think, Mr Hammond could make it rain in there whenever he chose! There was only one suit of armor on display when we were there and I would have loved to see more but the castle is beautiful. I am so looking forward to going back next month for the King Arthur festival. My son can't wait to go either!

The day we visited the castle it was closed. The castle was being prepared for a wedding. We were able to see some of the outside areas, which are gorgeous ... as for the wedding .. it must have been a fairy tale come true!

We visited Hammond Castle in November 2002. To our sorry, the castle was closed the week we were in Mass. but we loved being there. Took some great pictures and had a lovely conversation with the woman who lives next door. Can't wait to visit when it's open!
