Leeds Castle Reviews

Beautiful and with interesting history. Great video tour of upstairs for anyone who can't go up the stairs.

Had a lovely time. This place is definitely disabled friendly. Even the cafe in the court has a table for wheelchair users. They are friendly and helpful. If you take your scooter you cannot go into the castle unless you can transfer to one of their wheelchairs.
Lovely garden and views. Plenty of birds to see even falconry display.

Absolutely beautiful place! Awesome gardens, falconry, made and loads of other stuff. Ticket is valid for a year, so you can come back as many times as you want. And you will want to come back

Wonderful place for staying the whole afternoon. Grand castle both exteriorly and interiorly. Garden with colourful plants.

Brilliant place to visit. Loads of places to walk and for the kids to run around. Talking of the kids, there's also the play area with zip lines and a wood castle. Jon in, or grab a drink and watch them from the comfort of the cafe mere yards away.
The cafe / restaurant is great, as is the quality of the food.
All this, and we haven't touched on the castle itself. Or the fact that you can take a punt around the moat.
All day event, loads of parking.

Beautiful ground and castle and delicious tea with great service.

Great Xmas Market. Great views. Castle rooms decorated lovely.

Absolutely gorgeous Never seen so many different varieties of trees! The castle is fantastic inside and out! It's like it's out of a fairy tale

Lovely place to visit,pay once come again and again.the grounds are huge ,loads of space for just walking around.a brilliant new adventure play area at the far end .kids will love that.and the castle is a great place to learn the history .

Resteraunt overlooking Leeds Castle.. great meal. Great view. Great staff. Cheese small.

Lovely day at the beautiful Leeds Castle. Very wheelchair friendly and very helpful staff

Lots to see, I wish there was a tour guide that could take you through it all

Great little course and very friendly and helpful staff

Lovely place. Great if you go several times in a year.

Beautiful place as ever even after 31 years! Love Leeds Castle..

Loved it here, picturesque grounds and very interesting history in the castle itself. Visited during the 'carnival of history' event, which is recommended.
Great place to take a picnic and the kids as new castle play area is fantastic and well built.

Wonderful castle of Kent, were on excursions, a great castle, paintings, a lake right near the castle.

Fantastic castle and grounds. Maze was fun. Only thing that let it down was the food, we had burgers from the pavilion and they had no flavour, very bland.

Brilliant something for everyone best day out by far, children will love it here

Great family day out with huge amount of history and natural beauty

Lovely grounds, plenty of good walking and wildlife. Castle rooms very interesting, lots of history. Good value ticket if you want to visit many times during the year.

I love leeds castle, the events they put on throughout the year are brilliant, the annual pass is a must. We experienced the Falconary experience over the weekend Mark and his team were excellent. We are very lucky to live so close.

Stunning castle and a full day out for the whole family. Would give it 10 stars!

Leeds 40th anniversary was spectacular! 12 thousand people young and old could not have ask for a better evening weather was perfect deffinately recommend it see you next year !!

Amazing! More like a stately home/manor than a castle but not complaining. There's more to do and a great day out.

This pace is just amazing. A wonderful castle with huge history, an aviary with displays in the summer, and a great playground fire the kids

Leeds Castle is a must for anyone, eithet by yourself, with friends and families.

This place has all the entertainment you need for a whole day out.

On arrival you are greeted pass the gates into a multi section car park, it is his big because this place attracts a ton of visitors from around the uk and overseas.

Once you get your tickets, this is where you can easily spend a few hours walking around the castle, its moat and the fields which are home to its inhabitants friendly ducks and swans that appear to be used to humans.

The nature and structure housed here is beyond awesome..its breathe-taking.

Awesome day out. If the weather holds up it cant get better than spending a day in the lovely castle.

Wonderful place but two caveats.

1) Shame that you can t buy a one-day ticket. We took friends from Australia but they had to pay for a year s entries.

2). The food at all the outlets is beyond awful. Absolutely everyone we spoke to in the various eateries agreed on this. There isn t much choice, it s unhealthy and overpriced.

However, it s a truly lovely place and a lot of care and thought, not to mention a lot of hard work have gone into making it so.

But do take a picnic!

Brilliant, beautiful setting in really well kept gardens. Lovely relaxing place to spend a few hours as a couple or family. Very friendly and polite staff too, we have just done the upstairs tour that involves seeing bedrooms and beautiful More

The Castle looks magnificent including the rooms inside it. It was a great place to hold the wedding there. However, due to the heat wave yesterday and there is no aircon in the Castle, with more than 50 people there, it was just unbearable in the function room. Not even a fan was provided during the ceremony nor during the meal times. Food were tasteless and didn't provide what were being ordered. Kids were not served first nor provide the proper kids meal.

Small, lovely castle.
If you want to visit this castle, you should go pretty early. There is a lot to discover about this castles history by reading all the mini-texts and checking out all the portraits of the important people who lived there. You can also ask the employee about the castle. They are not only there to oversee the rooms . I got there pretty late, so I could not check out the maze or the Restaurant.

Lovely place to stay and visit special place for me

Brilliant day out for the whole family! There is so much to do and so much history to learn

Really nice day out. Plenty of parking and the castle is really well kept

Beautiful landscaped gardens and grounds. Perfect place for a Sunday walk. We're quite local so use it as our local park for short and long trips. food options are good and there are plenty of attractions and events. landtrain, boat ride, maze, brilliant playground, castle etc. We love playing can you spot the peacock! Only downside is the fact the playground is at the far end of the site from the carpark.

Lovely sunny day and managed to see most of the attractions - gardens,castle,falconry centre,maze,grotto and eateries.

The grounds are really nice and seems to be a good family day out with activities for kids such as falconry display, but the castle itself is not particularly interesting. We managed to walk around the castle itself in about 20 minutes. More

Very nice environment, activities for children were organized during our visit

The Grand Medieval Joust is a MUST SEE.



This time around me and 3 others plus a 6 year old went for the medieval joust where there were lots of stalls and displays to see. It s very child friendly with activities like Shield Painting, Re-enactment role playing and there s a shop where you can kit children out in armour and swords etc. There s plenty of ducks and swans and even gondola rides!

There s a playground and a brilliant maze. If you decide to go for the medieval grand joust, I recommend going for more than one day as there is simply too much to do for one day. We only managed to watch the firepower display, the joust, arming the knight display and some children activities during our day there. I would ve loved to see more off the tents as each has its own story where you learn about what life was like during the medieval era.

They have plenty of other experiences you can do at leeds castle from Go Ape, Segway experiences and Hot air balloon rides. They obviously cost extra but for the annual ticket that gives you access to the castle and grounds there is no better bargain out there!

Love love love this place.

It was a long walk to the castle from the car park and back with the one way system. One of my friends finds walking a great distance difficult.
The castle itself was interesting.

I wish I had another day here. So much to take in beyond the castle.

Wonderful time Glamping. Lots to do on the grounds during the day and toasting. Marshmallows at night.

We stayed here for two nights in the glamping tents. It was an amazing experience. The grounds and castle were fantastic to explore and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We also did a half day Owl/Falconry experience where Hannah and Mark were great!

Beautiful Castle. It is a private living place, preserved and maintain by the Leeds Castle Foundation. Great castle, and garden areas, shops and activities for children as well.

a beautiful place never disappoints for a great family day out x and one ticket to be used for a year!

Fabulous place and a must visit for everyone travelling to London... great for kids as well!!

Beautiful place and the tickets are good value if you live locally and can attend all the events

Expensive for what it is,compared to places like Dover castle which had more to do and see.I thought the castle was a little disappointing.

We stayed at the castle. Lovely ground. Awesome staff. Seriously, they totally made the trip. The castle was really cool to see too!

Such a marvelous place to visit. It didn t have the feel of old and aged but instead rather modern and lively. Stayed at the on site B&B so there was enough time for us to enjoy the place. Strolled the lake shore, fed the swans and birds, took it slow walking through every room opened inside the Castle and it was good. Winter weather was freezing but my lady and I loved every moment we spent there. Just too bad the Maze was closed.

Always lovely and well kept. Their festival of flowers was stunning around the castle grounds, we will make sure to have our annual ticket to see their events and take in the beauty!

Great day out with lots to see and do. Buy your ticket once and return as many times as you like within a year. Lots of event days included in your ticket price (some need to have an additional ticket purchased). Food and drink reasonably priced, but there's lots of space for you to eat your own picnic too.

It's a very big castle and a very nice place to go. If you want to enjoy it you need to be rested, because you need to walk a lot to go to the palace and to walk inside looking every room.


Buena visita al castillo de Leeds!

Beautiful castle. Very picturesque. Lots to do, so turn up early. Tickets valid for 12 months.

Preservation as well as perfect maintenance are truly noteworthy. The whole castle is very impressive and very well preserved including the perimeter moat, the interior design of the rooms is less impressive and looks like a design of the early 20th century between us it is not something, since the place is not accessible / accessible no elevator or sheep so keep in mind Wheels less recommended.
