    A great place of historical value and interest that offers great public facilities to enjoy the surroundings in a relaxed atmosphere l. The grounds are vast and do prepare to walk to the castle about a mile away from the reception entrance. The best time to visit is late spring when the blooms are at their best. However, any time of the year is great to enjoy the building and the surroundings.

    I recently stayed at Leeds Castle for a friend's wedding, and it was an experience I'll never forget. The rooms were absolutely amazing spacious, beautifully decorated, and spotlessly clean. It felt like staying in a piece of history with all the modern comforts. The wedding arrangements were top-notch, with every detail meticulously planned. The setting was perfect, adding a magical touch to the entire event. The food, from the wedding dinner to breakfast the next morning, was outstanding. Everything was delicious, and the breakfast spread was especially impressive. One of the highlights of my stay was exploring the castle itself. There's so much to see and do, from wandering through the stunning gardens to discovering the rich history within the castle walls. It's an enchanting place that offers something for everyone. Overall, Leeds Castle provided an unforgettable experience, blending history, luxury, and exceptional service. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a unique and memorable stay!

    Very charming little castle. Very inviting and beautiful! As a day before London’s children coming back from their summer vacation, the Leeds castle was pretty quiet. Many families with their children were here to enjoy the tail end of summer! The castle was very well maintained and very different from the Windsor or Tower of London. The vibe here was quite relaxing! This is a great destination for a day trip from London!

    Went for the Christmas lights 2023. Paid for me, my daughter and my mum. Fair enough it is pretty good but for the money, it isn't a place I would visiti year on year. Good to try once. Will definitely be trying somewhere different this year. Took plenty of photos for anyone to see what is there. Fun fair was okay, very focused on 3-5 year old kids in my opinion but they only have so my space. Swinging chairs were the best ride for my then 6 year old. Food fairly expensive but expected. I think it was £12 for a burger.
