If it's good enough for Santa, it's good enough for a whole season of wonderful photos.

That's Hylton Castle which was in the news, as reported in the Sunderland Echo.

But why limit yourself to a Christmas look at the castle when you can enjoy it with a stunning backdrop of a sunset, snow, Autumn leaves or Spring splendour.

We have them all and plenty more besides in these 9 images from the Echo archives.

A treat for the visitor at all times of the year.
