Kent, Leeds Castle

I've been to Leeds castle 4 times now and I still can't get enough of it! I've been during the day when you can investigate the Castle itself (which is like something out of a fairy-tale with a beautiful moat etc) and the grounds which are beautifully kept a Maze which is great fun.

I've also been to Leeds castle at night for music and fireworks too, which are incredible - it's like the last night of the proms but better. Everyone is waving their flags up the steeply banked hill by the side of the castle (which is the backdrop for the event) and rubber chickens tend to be flying around (don't ask).

Some of the best times of my life have been at Leeds Castle and I couldn't recommend it enough!

I would highly recommend Leeds Castle as a great family day out. Not only are the castle and grounds interesting and picturesque, there a number of other attractions which are worthy of merit. These include a maze; two children's playgrounds; aviary and birds of prey displays. There is a restaurant and a cafe. Also, the admission price entitles the ticket-holder with an unlimited number of visits for a year, making this even more excellent value if you can manage more than one visit during the year.

Although Leeds Castle is Beautiful, I found the staff very unwelcoming on my day, food wasn't nice and they told me what I could and could not do...a lot!
