Great place to take the dogs for a good play or walk and not too crowded most of the time. It can get pretty muddy though, especially at the entry. The entrance off of the main road is poorly marked and hard to see, and it is a tight turn if you're coming in from the left.

Lovely area, but the castle is basically earth workings, any buildings are long gone. Nice place for a walk but not a hell of a lot else. There are also no facilities except for pubs in the town.

A great place to take the dogs to play, but if you're expecting stone battlements and a great ball, forget it. It's old earthworks only. That said, it's a really nice grassy field and there's a good view from the top of the earthworks

There's no castle!😅 to be fair I don't know anything about the area and was looking for a walk one day, seen signs for Deddington Castle and found a field where the castle was.....it was ok, open field with plenty of benches and bins but no ruins or gardens. Nice walk though.

Pretty bland experience. Just a place surrounded by some mounds of earth and that's basically it. Not sure what English Heritage saw in making this as an attraction.

If you're expecting to see a big field with a sign at the far end of it, you won't be disappointed. It's a lovely enough field, but just a field nonetheless. Not worth going out of your way for

No ruins, just mounds and a play field. Nice for a walk and to understand some history

English heritage site with NO castle, no ruins, no physical remains. The name is entirely misleading.
The site is a large grass field onto of a mound, with a football goal placed on one side. If you want a kick around, a walk on a little patch of nice open ground, or the kids want to race about, then it will be ok for you. If you are looking for a castle or castle remains, avoid this site.
