Castle Inn

A child and dog friendly pub serving food in Newport.

Details

The Castle Inn is Newport’s oldest pub, the premises having been licensed since 1550. The outer end wall in Mill Street dates from around 1300 when it was the only building outside Carisbrooke Castle and was a ‘den for thieves and vagabonds’. It is said that Charles I used to visit the pub, under armed guard, whilst he was held prisoner in Carisbrooke Castle.

The bar, now one room, used to be made up of 5 small rooms with one being licensed to conduct civil weddings. There was a hidden staircase leading into the Castle grounds and another leading to a building in the town centre.

In the 21st Century the pub provides a relaxed atmosphere, with a flagstone floor and beamed ceilings in historic surroundings, for a place to drink, meeting with friends or dine. The pub is only a fifteen minute walk from the festival.
