Dunster Castle

The most important place of historical significance and sightseeing, Dunster Castle is a magnificent tourist destination. Now owned and maintained by the National Trust, the gigantic fortress was originally built as a motte and bailey timber castle during the Norman Conquest by William de Mohun. The mighty fortification was renovated into a country house by the Luttrell family that acquired the property in 1404 and resided there for more than 600 years.

The castle boasts enigmatic architectural prototypes, an exclusive collection of artifacts, and fascinating history of 1000 years, full of enthralling tell-tale to mesmerize its visitors.
