Beautiful village - Lovely day out away from the city Holloko is beautiful quiet and interesting. Egar is also beautiful and the food was lovely. Most of all we loved a look round the castle plenty of exhibitions even with it being renovated. Our driver Richard was lovely and did things at our pace happy to offer interesting facts along the way.
