Leeds Castle
Broomfield Road, Maidstone, ME17 1PL
Often referred to as 'The Loveliest Castle in The World', Leeds Castle has played many roles in its nearly 900-year history. From a Norman stronghold to a magnificent royal palace, the castle today has been converted by subsequent owners into an idyllic countryside retreat.
With 500 acres of parkland and landscaped gardens to explore, it's easy to see why this beautiful castle has been the private property of no fewer than six English queens.
The Princess Alexandra Gardens alongside the River Len is a carpet of Daffodils, Narcissi, and Anemones presenting a vibrant burst of colour. Later in the year, guests are treated to the splendor of Azaleas and Rhododendrons.
