Description
Over a thousand years of myths, legends and history combine to create a special atmosphere that has cast its spell over the castle’s many illustrious owners. Henry VIII, the most famous owner of all, fell in love with Leeds Castle and converted much of the Norman fortress into a royal palace in the 16th Century.
Set on an island surrounded by 500 acres of tranquil parkland, Leeds Castle offers security, seclusion and privacy for meetings and conferences, and an unparalleled setting for presentations, sumptuous banquets and fine dining.
The Cedar Lawn overlooking the Castle is the perfect location to erect a marquee for lazy summer parties with Pimm's in the garden.
The castle's proximity to London's Gatwick and Heathrow airports and channel ports for mainland Europe, makes it one of the country’s premier locations for top level board meetings, residential conferences and banquets.
