What a night. I am so pleased we went along, and I would point anyone in its direction; it is genuinely good fun.
Worth the evening if you like horses, and food and drink come with it. The front row with a glass of sparkling wine paid off for us, and parking was free. There were rather too many staged duels for my taste; a few more numbers with the horses would have helped.
Für Pferdefreunde lohnt sich der Abend, Essen und Trinken sind dabei. Die erste Reihe mit einem Glas Sekt hat sich für uns ausgezahlt, parken konnten wir kostenlos. Die gestellten Zweikämpfe waren mir etwas zu viel, ein paar mehr Nummern mit den Pferden hätten gutgetan.
The place has a great feel to it. The show keeps the tension up and the cast play off the audience the whole way through. The food was good too; we would recommend it with or without children.
Miejsce ma świetny klimat. Przez całe przedstawienie trzyma w napięciu i aktorzy cały czas grają z publicznością. Jedzenie też nam smakowało, polecamy z dziećmi i bez.
The riders are the real thing, and you can see the care they take of the horses, not just of the act. Dinner is not the point of the evening, but it was good and fitted the setting, and the table service was warm.
Los jinetes son profesionales de verdad y se les nota el cuidado que tienen con los caballos, no solo con el número. La cena no es lo principal, pero estaba bien y acompaña al ambiente, y en la mesa nos atendieron con mucha amabilidad.
The castle alone is worth seeing, and the knights' show delivers. The staff were pleasant and helpful with us.
Le château en lui-même vaut le détour et le spectacle de chevaliers est réussi. Le personnel s'est montré aimable et serviable.
As a wheelchair user I am wary of places that claim to be accessible, and this one has it sorted. The food is plain, but the show more than makes up for it. The Duke had me posing for a photo, and by the end the Duchess was in stitches. The horses are clearly adored.
The experience itself was fantastic. Food could have been simpler, since most of it ended up in the bin, while the drinks were fine. The entertainment, on the other hand, was superb, and I would go for the VIP option.
Opplevelsen var fantastisk. Maten kunne godt vært enklere, for det meste av den gikk rett i søpla, mens drikken holdt mål. Underholdningen derimot var strålende, og jeg vil anbefale å ta VIP.
Jousting was promised and duly delivered, along with dressage, falconry and combat, all of it beautifully choreographed and played for laughs so the audience gets drawn in. A three-course meal arrives while it runs, with wine included; we ordered buckets of beer and were too caught up in the action to finish them. Suits any age.
Our three sons have been coming here with us for years and it never lets us down. The show, the staff and the atmosphere are all excellent, and guests get pulled into the action rather than just watching. Meeting the horses is my own favourite part; the boys get their photos with the knights afterwards.
A spectacular event. The actors did a great job, and the food was excellent. The medieval atmosphere was perfect. Definitely an experience worth having.
The medieval show was wonderful. The scenery and costumes were very realistic. The dinner was also tasty. An unforgettable experience.
The medieval show was incredible. The fights and performances were very realistic and exciting. The dinner was plentiful and tasty. A wonderful night.
