Yes….really….the BAFTA award winning Game of Thrones TV show (dubbed to get bigger than Lord of the Rings) was actually filmed here ‘on location’ in our courtyard at Castle Ward Estate.
As you drive down through the estate you soon realise why the HBO film location scouts chose here; the authentic medieval buildings, the beautiful surrounding landscapes and far-reaching views; it was the perfect place to create ‘Winterfell’ – home of the Stark family.
In the show there was an archery range in the ‘Winterfell’ courtyard where young Bran Stark was being trained by his big brother Jon Snow to try and be a better archer than his sister Arya! All this took place under the watchful eye of his father Ned Stark.
An exact replica of the ‘Winterfell Archery Range’ has been masterfully recreated in our courtyard in the very same spot that the filming took place, transporting you into the world of Westeros. Dress up in character costume and step into the movie set – don’t forget your camera!
