Bodiam Castle: One of the most famous and evocative castles in Britain, Bodiam was built in 1385, as both a defence and a comfortable home. The exterior is virtually complete and the ramparts rise dramatically above the moat. Enough of the interior survives to give an impression of castle life. There are spiral staircases and battlements to explore and wonderful views of the Rother Valley from the top of the towers.
Admission prices:
£4.40, child £2.20, family £11. Groups £3.75, child £1.90. Reduced rate when arriving by public transport or for visitors arriving via Kent and East Sussex Steam Railway; stations at Tenterden and Northiam.
