Castles
While there are no castles
within the borough we are in close proximity to some of England's
most prestigious tourist attractions, including two outstanding
historic castles.
Leeds Castle - set on two
islands on the River Len in the heart of Kent, Leeds Castle has
been home to royalty, lords and ladies for over 1000 years.
Featuring aviaries, gardens, a maze and much more, the castle,
situated off of Junction 8 on the M20 near Maidstone is always a
good day out.
Bodiam Castle - just over the Kent and Sussex border to the
west of Tenterden is Bodiam Castle, one of Britain's most famous
and evocative castles, looked after by the National
Trust.
