Leeds Castle Reviews

Fireworks where we'll organised, loads of food stalls

Fantastic, interesting place. Lovely well kept grounds. The one thing that stood out for me was the staff, very friendly especially in the restaurant. Food was beautiful.

Beautiful place. Very accessible, staff helpful without being intrusive or patronising.

Great place to have a picnic and wonder at the beautiful flower gardens.... Buy you tickets onlie as the ques are very very long during busy times. People who have pre purchase tickets enter a much smaller que to get in.
P.s. keep your ticket as you can go in as many times as you please within one year of purchase

This place was awesome, absolutely beautiful, pleasant staff, lots to do and see, a small bar and eating area, you can spend the day here.

Beautiful Castle, small but nice bird show, wonderful play castle for the children. We also enjoyed the maze followed by the cave. Had a wonderful day there!

Well marshalled parking. Beautiful and well maintained gardens. Maze and grotto and not to mention the castle itself. Plenty to do in all weathers and particularly lovely in the snow.

Beautiful castle, so full of history and so well taken care of. Even the kids enjoyed seeing the inside and hearing about the different people that loved there. Highly recommend leaving enough time to visit the playground, maze and grotto as well, they are well worth it! The gift shop is also a delight with a great array of items for every budget and taste.

Entrance bit expensive but then ticket is valid for 1 year. Lots to do once inside and plenty of history to learn. Great area for kids to run around. Food again is over priced.

Stunning castle, great scenery and lots for the kids. Great value!

Lovely house, interesting history.
Lots of waterbirds. Squirrels , lovely gardens and walks. Xmas tree in virtually every room this time of year.

Fine castle, lovely grounds, some nice wildlife around too. Pricey to get in, but I guess the grounds cost a lot to maintain. Visitor cafe is not bad.

Lovely gardens disappointing castle much too expensive

Old Leeds Castle, the residence of King Edward I in the 13th century.

Very interesting and not at all what I expected. The grounds are extremely well kept and there's plenty to interest the whole family

Fantastically beautiful castle and park. Seek his peers.

Private grounds and castle. Large grounds to walk around. Areas for kids and now mini golf. Small castle to go around, very good condition. Lots of history attached to it.

I can't express enough how glad we were to have visited this castle, it is magical in every way. A true fairy tale castle with immaculate gardens and grounds. We must have taken about 200 photos. Our two little daughters were enthralled by it, posing around the gate and moat area as if they were two little princesses!! I'd even go so far as to say that it was the highlight of our tour, and we spent almost three weeks in UK this August.

Fantastic castle set in beautiful grounds. Loads to do if the weather is pleasant. Always helpful staff around if you have any questions or issues.

Wonderful with a magical multi aged children's fort play area

Great 9 hole course (haven't played the full 18 yet). Very technical. Highly recommend

Pleasant walk in well kept parkland. Grandchildren love the ducks. And the cafe is great on a chilly day.

Great historical place, loads to do, and lots to see. Need a few hours to take it all in. What I like is you pay the same price as seeing Windsor castle, but the ticket last a whole year. Well worth it's wait in gold. I will revisit.

Took our 4 year old grandson and he really enjoyed the adventure playground shaped like a castle. He also liked the knights in armour inside the castle.

The gardens are more beautiful than the castle itself. There is a falconry show.

I didn't spend tonnes of time here as I went here as part of a group. However, not only did I like the castle, but the labyrinth and play areas were excellent. Hats off to you, Leeds Castle, both the smaller and larger kids' play areas were exceptional and the kids all seemed to be having a great time too.

This castle is amazing great value as once you paid you can go back as many times as you like in a year

Got married here! What a blast! The castle is awsome. The maze is actually difficult. Golf if you like. Great history. Will be coming back for anniversary

Lovely flower festival today. Disappointing that the restaurant was closed and the alternative food offerings were very limited. Bad management on this score.

Fantastic family day out, beautiful scenery and loads of activities for the kids.

Grounds are lovely, good value for money as you can revist with in a year.

I visited Leeds castle on a date with my now partner and we both absolutely loved it. On arrival, we joked about the castle being called the loveliest castle in the world as lovely isn t really a word often used to describe castles. However, Leeds truly is lovely and definitely worth a visit if you are in the area. The ticket gets you as many entries as you d like for a year so is an absolute bargain! We were there for three/four hours and could have definitely spent more exploring the gardens and displays.

An insightful look of the past and recent past of England royals. A tasteful transition to the modern day of a great palace.

Well worth the trip! A beautiful castle in a stunning location. Facilities were great and staff were lovely. There is a maze, underground grotto, war exhibition, ferry ride, burger bar etc... So lots to see and do. The wildlife is amazing BUT...

Warning... Very young children may not enjoy it. After the ducks and the maze it's all culture =)

The first time we visited was during a flower event which was lovely, we paid for the day and got a year ticket at no extra cost. Since our first visit we have returned atleast 5-6 times in the last 8 months and even brought family members here from up north for days out, there is always something exciting going on at Leeds Castle, I don't think we will ever get bored here. The kids love the play area and gotto, on our last visit they had a scavenger hunt on where the children tick of a check list of leaves, plants and animals etc in exchange for a chocolate. Best part is when you have worn your self out for the day you can hop on the little train that takes you back to the car park for a small fee. Would highly recomend to everyone

It has been great and wonderful to see and get the feeling to be in the famous Leeds Castle Kent County. I want to come back to Kent and this great and beautiful Castle.

Fabulous place for families , beautiful grounds , lovely walks, ducks to feed , maze to get lost in ,falconry displays, play area , ideal for picnics and this is all before you get to the castle itself !
Staff are helpful and facilities are good .
Yearly membership means you can go back time after time .

What a gem of a castle. Beautifully preserved and very tastefully decorated for the flower festival. We were also very lucky to visit during the tail end of some beautiful September sunshine. The visitor shops were also stocked with some really nice gifts.

One of the most well preserved and beautiful castles I've ever been too. Absolutely stunning. Filled with interesting artifacts and information. Prices are compatible to other smaller castles, and it's valid for a full year so we'll worth a return visit.

It's absolutely beautiful here, always plenty to do. Stunning scenery. A lovely day out

We always love Leeds castle and it's great to see that the constantly invest in the play areas and activity areas, currently redoing part of the large play ground

A magnificent castle of beauty located south of London far away but worth it where you will find the beauty of nature and memories of the past

Great place for a day out, so much to do and buying a ticket allows you to return for a whole year.

Stunning grounds and a beautiful setting for a castle. Flower Festival rather dominated the interior so will visit again.

Brilliant fun. If you have thomas obsessed kids try the train service to and from the castle.

Amazing place..ticket 26 pounds but has a validity year..bound well maintained

Got engaged here ! Wooo a beautiful place to visit and loads to take in ( enjoy the views) tickets are valid for a year and can go back as many times as you want well worth it

Sun shining in February, decided to explore the castle and grounds on our way home from Maidstone to Brighton. Such a lovely castle and beautiful grounds. Took over 20 minutes to exit the maze which was fun. Highly recommended. Also check out deals online before you visit. We got a 2-4-1 deal . Great fun feeding ducks and swans too, purchase food in gift shops.

A great day out. Very picturesque. Lots of photo opportunities. Ideal for bringing picnics as it has both gardens and park like grounds. Lots to do for the kids with crazy golf, climbing, swings and bird of prey shows. The castle is very interesting with lots of information about what you are looking at.

Great place to visit and walk around the castle and grounds ... lots of history ...
Visit once and you can visit again for the rest of the year for free

The view and atmosphere here is amazing. The castle is memorable

Very nice views! Even during events like marathon it is still enjoyable. Not many kids running around. Falcons are well looked after.

It was unusual in England for women to be called owners' castles. Certainly, looking at the flexible figure, nature matched the refined location, and I wanted to see what was inside the castle.

One of our favourite places, so lucky to have such a wonderful place on our doorstep. We buy tickets yearly and use them

Stunning, hands down the best castle a day for all the family
