History

The Coryton family have owned Pentillie Castle and Estate for over 300 years and the estate is now wonderfully cared for by the latest generation; Sammie and her parents Ted and Sarah. In 2008, the family undertook the huge project to restore the castle to its former glory, ensuring the influence of the surrounding countryside but modernising the interiors. Today, the Castle is a private hire venue, perfect for hosting bespoke weddings, as well as memorable holidays and relaxing residential retreats.
