Playgrounds, Bird of Prey Centre, Lady Baillie and Culpeper Gardens to reopen from 13th July

Following the recent opening of the Cedar Lawn and the Princess Alexandra Gardens,
we now are able to announce the next stage of opening. The Adventure Playgrounds, Bird of Prey Centre, Adventure Golf, Lady Baillie and Culpeper Gardens will open from Monday 13th July.

To make sure everyone is safe and able to follow the guidelines on social distancing, we are having to restrict the number of visitors we can admit each day. This means if you would like to visit you will need to book a time slot online.
If you already have a ticket you can book for free.

Currently, we are unable to accept cash anywhere on the estate due to health and safety guidance.

We are very excited to be opening more of the estate and continue to welcome our visitors back.
Thank you for supporting the Leeds Castle Foundation, the charity that preserves
and protects the Castle and its grounds for this and future generations.
