Description

A former royal palace begun in the 12th century, Leeds Castle has to be one of the most beautifully situated medieval castles in England, projecting into its natural lake, and surrounded by 500 acres of beautiful parkland and gardens. There was a Saxon royal manor here as early as 857 AD, After the Norman invasion the manor was held by the Crevecoeur family, who rebuilt the manor as a stone dwelling. From 1278 the castle belonged to the crown.
