Walmer Castle and Gardens

Walmer Castle is a treat in any season with ever-changing colors across the herbaceous borders and formal and informal gardens. From 2019 visitors can stroll through the re-created 19th century Pleasure Grounds and can enjoy a woodland walk, wild flower meadow and sunken glen garden. On colder days group can explore the castle and its restored rooms. Built by Henry VIII, Walmer became the official residence of the Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports in 1708 and evolved into an elegant country house.
