A lovely castle and beautiful grounds. We walked the dog on a beautiful day when it wasn't very busy. All the staff were super friendly and knowledgeable about the place. A great day out. A point to note is that it is cashless, card only.

The oldest brick brick building in England did not disappoint. A castle with a long and varied history. Thanks to Mrs Stone for the informative guide at the entrance for fascinating account of some of the colourful characters who have shaped the building as it is today. As it is a University you cannot go inside apart from pre arranged tours which happen now and again. There are many different parts to the gardens which have a kind of natural vibe.

Beautiful Elizabethan brick built castle with nice gardens. Access to inside the castle is limited to specific times/areas due to occupancy by the University of Canada.

Great place for a day trip, the castle is a loving recreation, beautiful gardens, and the grounds around the castle are expansive and full of hidden gems which keeps you exploring.

It is always a joy to visit Herstmonceaux. The gardens change from season to season and one can walk for hours in the woods and fields. Dogs on leads are welcome and there is also a small playground and lots for children to learn about. Small cafe serving light meals,coffee,teas etc.

Beautiful castle, unfortunately the gardens were near the end of the season so not a great deal of colour apart from some roses and flowers from the daisy section. Knew it was late but did expect a little more.Magic Garden very poor and disappointing along with other parts of the ground.<br>Wanted a cream tea with my husband as one of our first trips out in a long time due to covid. Only to be told only cheese scones with butter available. With the sandwiches, that was it .But still charged us the same price of a cream tea very disappointing and did look very drab on the cake stand was not impressed. Will hopefully visit again next year but a bit earlier hopefully to see more colour.<br>Also arts and craft store disappointing, many art pieces to look at but craft pieces hardly anything at all .

Lovely grounds & gardens, acres & acres to walk around & relax a great way to spend a day. The cafe / coffee shop greatly let it down, very disappointed with the food, expensive, not much choice, especially if you've got dietary requirements, very poor standard. Will definitely return to the castle but certainly will not use the cafe again. If the cafe had been good would have given 5 stars.

Shame one can't visit inside the castle but beautiful grounds to explore. Woodland at the rear wonderful. Pleasant courtyard to enjoy coffee and cake from shop. Be prepared to share with the Peacocks 😁
