A nice quiet and clean garden, so sat and ate a sandwich whilst birds flew around. A cheeky jackdaw sat perched on a branch opposite me waiting for crumbs. I wish I took a pic of it,, starring me out. The gardens are very picturesque for a small garden. I took a walk around the the front of the gatehouse, watched the ducks for a while before heading back to town.

A lovely castle. Some parts are over 1000 years old. Playground needs attention.

Being a local person I think people visiting Hertford should also view the historic castle and gardens well worth the effort.<br>John

I have lived ten miles from Hertford and in the ten years I have been here I never ever knew that Hertford had the remains of a large Norman castle! This lies within a charming park adjacent to the river Lea with a substantial gothic house in the architectural style of John Nash. Many of the original ramparts and surrounding walls are intact as well as semi fortifications. The environs around the castle are charming with a mixture of Georgian, Victorian and jettied architecture. Hertford a forgotten town is well worth a visit

Visited to watch 'Quantum Theatre' perform 'A Midsummer Nights Dream'. It was a fantastic performance (well done to the small cast) and was well organised and the Covid-19 precautions looked pretty good.

Hertford castle annual car show is a small but interesting day out with a mix of car's from very early examples to modern day UK and American hand built custom rods to factory built everyday cars. There are little gems of all types. During the show the castle is open for visits and there are food stalls and live music.

Great gardens to chill and relax while catching rays in spring and summer. Lots of ducks, geese and swans to look at. Just be aware of the gate closing times at different times of the year.

Lovely quaint historical location. Signs explaining the history all over the area and mostly tucked away from Hertford's town center. Great location for a summer's walk 😊

The grounds are a lovely way to spend some time a short distance from the town centre.
Hertford is an attractive little place with pieces of history dotted around.
The castle itself was a little uncastlelike, perhaps I was a little disappointed that it was not quite a Windsor Castle nor the fact it was open......i believe it is only open for corporate functions.
A pity....but the grounds are lovely.
Visited 26th September 2020.
