Visit this important historic castle in Kent, once the childhood home of Anne Boleyn, the intriguing second wife of Henry VIII and mother of Elizabeth I.
Its panelled rooms house fine furniture, tapestries, antiques and what is regarded as ‘one of the best collections of Tudor portraits after the National Portrait Gallery’ by David Starkey. The Book of Hours Room beautifully illuminates two prayer books which belonged to Anne Boleyn and bear her inscriptions and signature.
Discover award-winning gardens that include Rose, Italian and Tudor gardens, as well as magnificent topiary, fountains, cascades and grottoes.
Marvel at the Pompeiian Wall and classical statuary in the Italian Garden; admire the giant topiary chess set and inhale the fragrance of over 4,000 rose bushes in the quintessential English Rose Garden.
