“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!”

“Our first time visiting here and definitely won’t be our last. It truly is a beautiful place to visit for any ages. The Castle is spectacular and the Birds of Prey display was amazing. A great day out.”

“Just had to share – Leeds Castle is a total gem! 💚 We go every half term and it’s still blows us away 😍. So, when we first bought our ticket, we thought it was for a day out, but nope, it’s a WHOLE YEAR 🤯!”

“The best day out in the south of England! We spent the whole day here and still didn’t see everything. Well worth a visit. Adventure playground, crazy golf, bird of prey show, maze, castle tour, restaurants, boat trips, Go Ape…. List is huge!”

“Fantastic place to visit in this part of England especially for history lovers and garden enthusiasts. The guided tour inside is a must and the various gardens are absolutely glorious. Definitely visit and try the maze, although you may spend an hour or more trying to find your way out!”

“Had a fantastic visit to Leeds Castle with my girlfriend! The staff were brilliant, the crowds were not too bad, and the history was very interesting. The ham and cheese toastie alone was worth the trip… absolute perfection. The maze, however, nearly claimed us for good… but we made it out (eventually). Highly recommend!”

“Brought an experience day with the birds of prey and then had a look around the castle after. Lots of fun for the kids they have a big sand area climbing area and a maze. The castle is quite small to look around though. All staff are really friendly and chatty.”
