Description
Discover Hever Castle, a 600-year-old picturesque Tudor landmark, full of history and charm with what is probably one of the best kept gardens in England.
From the moment you step on the grounds you are transported to another world.
The stunning castle is an immersive experience that lives up to its 'fairy-tale' reputation, with amazing architecture both inside and outside, that has been well preserved to present the Tudor era.
Each room is richly decorated with fine furniture, tapestries, porcelain and an impressive collection of Tudor portraits.
Stretching across 125 hectares, Hever Castle was once the childhood home of Anne Boleyn, Henry VIII’s second wife, who lived here with her family during the Tudor era.
Among its treasures are two of Anne Boleyn’s prayer books — the very ones she carried with her to the Tower of London before her execution.
Outside, Hever Castle is one of the very few “double-moated” castles in England where you can wander through the award-winning gardens, full of peaceful corners where every view feels straight out of a storybook.
Your discovery of the castle begins with collection from your hotel by one of our chauffeurs to arrive at the castle for 10am.
You will have ample time to discover the full history of the castle, stunning lakes and gardens, army museum and mazes.
Combining a fortification, stately home, country retreat, and a display of the wealth that created it, Hever Castle is a must-see destination where history truly comes alive.
