- Seeing all the photos and memories shared in the chats and on social media has been fantastic. There had been worries that we would be in for a rainy weekend, but miraculously, we only had rain on one evening, and managed to avoid an entire storm!
- Lumley Castle also exceeded our expectations, with a fantastic setting and such wonderful and helpful staff who enjoyed every moment of it.
- We look forward to seeing you as Twizell return to Lumley Castle for Wild North 2026: Age of Heroes. Registration will open in the new year (be on the lookout for future announcements), but you can save your details for next year on the registration site right now: regsys.myfurry.name/NEU/User/?id=5
