  • "Excellent very comfortable cottage with all the facilities and equipment you could possibly need - especially liked the inclusion of a wrist band for free access to Leeds Castle and grounds for the week."

    One minor niggle was the absence of guidance on what to do with the bins, operating instructions for the equipment etc - a simple handbook/loose leaf folder would be useful. Another minor niggle was that the TV remote didn't match the TV so we couldn't get the guide up no matter what we did... Apart from this it was brilliant - we'd happily stay here again.

Nestled with the grounds of the historic Leeds Castle, close to the beautiful Kent Downs AONB, are a collection of properties, suitable for larger groups. Wonderfully presented throughout, with light colour schemes and plush furnishings, making the most of an ideal setting. Share this lovely setup with your loved ones and spend some quality time in one of the most beautiful parts of the country. Look forward to relaxing and unwinding in your own living space enjoying a family movie night, or planning the days ahead. The kitchens are all equipped with a range of contemporary appliances so you can easily rustle up some delicious meals, to be enjoyed at the dining table over a refreshing glass of bubbly whilst you discuss the day's events. Once the evening draws to a close, retire to one of the elegant bedrooms, all of which have a range of modern furnishings, which complement the light decor, and offer an abundance of space to store your personal items, supported by high-quality fitted bathrooms. Staying in any of the cottages in this group entitles you to entry to Leeds Castle and the grounds during the day, and in the evening you are free to continue exlporing the grounds after it's been closed to the public. The Castle grounds provide activities such as the Knight's Stronghold play area, falconry displays, and Adventure golf.

Maidstone Museum is also a popular choice, resting in a former Elizabethan manor house with over 660,000 artefacts and artwork on display.
