Leeds castle It’s really worth visiting. We came with the group. There is an English explanation. There are many collections of the British royal family. The interior decoration is really luxurious and court style. The furniture oil paintings are the top. There are also oil paintings by Henry VIII. The fireplace feels very retro.

Located in Medway, Kent, England, Rochester Castle is a well-preserved square Norman building 113 feet tall, about 70 feet square, and 12 feet thick in walls. The castle was originally built by the Romans in Britain to facilitate the protection of troops on the way from Dover to London. In 1087, Bishop Gundulf used the remaining original Roman walls to build the castle we can see today, which is very historical. Although the castle was under siege three times during the war and partially demolished by King John in 1215, the castle that remains today can still give a shocking feeling. Now it is managed by the government and is open to visitors free of charge as a historical monument.

I have visited Ightham Mote many times over the years, but today I found it very frustrating as first we went into the house and it was all a different way round so were not entering the old entrance where the dressing up box is now, also the outside from the kitchen the old lavatory is now blocked although did not want to use it!! but it was very interesting seeing the old wooden boxed in toilet that I remember as a child, every room had so many roped off areas which really spoilt it, I was told that it was for safety reasons because of co-vid? (not now for goodness sake) one room had so many large written boards that you could hardly see the room, I am sure there was something else of interest in that room, but can't remember what it was.The whole place was rather spoilt now very disappointing, unless of course it was one first visit then you wouldn't know any differance. Signs to the restaurant were bad, everyone was walking up the old hill to the restaurant arrived at the top and it was blocked off, we were directed around to another entrance which we could not find till someone told us you had to go through the entrance marked Toilets the sigh was pass the toilets this should have been at the front. Just hoping that next year it will be back to its normal route round and all these ropestaken away. Disappointed.

If you ever dream of living in a castle like a royal, then England is where you will be next vacation. There are castles all over England, the result of centuries of feudal warfare and medieval nobles flaunting their power.

A beautiful castle, you can rent a small private wedding or celebration. Using night scenery, especially bonfire night, fireworks can also be set off. There are more than 80 spiral steps on the roof terrace and several guest rooms for visitors to rest.
