The Experience

When all the visitors have left you can pack up a picnic, take a bottle of wine and head out to play lord and lady of the manor. You sleep in either the Astor Wing or the Anne Boleyn Wing, tucked away from most of the bustle of the castle so it’ll feel peaceful. Breakfast is served in an impressive dining room or charming breakfast room depending on your wing: porridge with cream, a Full Hever, smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, or perhaps smashed avocado on sourdough.

Bedrooms have their own unique style, some with four-poster beds and roll-top baths, all with sparkling en suite bathrooms and lovely views over gardens or grounds. Join in with one of the many activities on the estate, or simply enjoy your own space – the Astor Wing has a sitting room with an open fire, deep sofas and good art.

You can order a private tour of the castle, or join a falconry display and there are lovely walks in every direction.

Reviews

Set within the timbered Astor and Anne Boleyn wings of moated Hever Castle, one of England's most famous castles, stylish refurbished rooms successfully combine period features with modern-day comforts – expect panelled walls, rich, colourful fabrics, and tranquil views across orchards to the castle walls. Savour the gardens and grounds after the castle closes, a magical experience early morning.
