Thinking of Warwick Castle for HT, anyone taken a baby there?

DS and DD1 are 6 and 4 but DD2 is 9mo. Flat places are easy but they want to go to somewhere a bit more exciting, well they actually want to go to a theme park but can't manage that one on my own.
Just wondering if Warwick Castle was a place you could take a buggy to some bits and struggle with the baby carrier the rest of the time (and somewhere for her to crawl around would be nice too) -OK probably hoping for too much here, just wondering if anyone has tried?

I've visited Warwick Castle with a baby and no it's not buggy friendly. Mostly I had to leave the buggy outside before carrying lo inside with me. If you've got a sling or baby carrier take it.
Also don't go if your lo's are scared of life sized fake horses. It terrified my ds when he was 3-4yo.

Thanks BC, you've just guaranteed a trip after mentioning the horses. DD1 is mad on horses and if I can persuade her that real horses just sit still perhaps she'll get bored of the idea of riding lessons which I cannot afford. LOL, thanks for the advice. Will take the baby carrier or hope that DD2 has started to walk by then

Actually, it's only one horse at the Kingmaker (or something) section. It's life size with life size and life like wax dolls around depicting the making of a king (can't remember who, English history is not my strong point). Anyway I really liked the castle, just the buggy thing was annoying. Inside there's not much crawling space, but if the weather is nice there are plenty of grassy areas for that (if you don't mind green knees )
