Come up to the Castle and See New Hampshire!

If you only have a day to see New Hampshire, come up to Castle in the Clouds!  The Castle's spectacular mountaintop estate offers a 270-degree view of mountains and lakes.  You won't believe the truly breathtaking views!   The Castle is an iconic, turn-of-the-century 16-room Arts & Crafts mansion perched high on a pristine mountaintop estate overlooking Lake Winnipesaukee.  When you come up to the Castle, you'll see the beauty of New Hampshire.

Walk or hike our 45-miles of trails, stroll the winding paths along beautiful gardens and gorgeous waterfalls, feed the giant trout in Shannon Pond, visit our New Hampshire-themed gift shop and the art gallery, and tour the historic mansion.  Wherever you go you'll be amazed at the Castle's spectacular "aerial" views of the Lake and mountains - including the sunny views from our acclaimed Carriage House Cafe & Patio where you can enjoy a delicious lunch.

Best of all, you can drive up to the Castle estate to begin your day!

Boston Globe writer Ellen Albanese loved the Carriage House Cafe and Patio and wrote, its "menu of sandwiches, salads, soups, and entrees such as steak tips and fish (most under $10), this eatery captures the spirit of the attraction itself.  At an elevation of 1300 feet, diners feel they're on top of the world..."  Read the Globe review here.
