First time to Herstmonceux Castle & well worth the visit. Beautiful gardens. The only disappointment was the cafe. Ordered & paid for a cream tea & was then told they didn't have any cream but we could have butter. That's NOT a cream tea is it!

Lovely place, gardens suffering after drought & in need of tidying etc. Enjoyed the walk. Cafe let us down, husband had soup & a roll more like a brick, they exchanged it for some ciabatta which also was hard. I complained & they refunded me . Was it because it was a Monday or was it freezer burn...but not brilliant. My ham & cheese ciabatta was fine tho.

꼭 와보고 싶었던 허스몬큐 성. 해자로 둘러싸이고 다리를 건너 입구로 들어가면 성곽 겸 빌딩 역할을 하는 메인 건물과 중심에 중정 느낌의 공간이 있는 귀여운 성이다. 해리포터의 마법학교 호그와트처럼 꾸며서 행사도 하고 그러는 곳인데, 코로나 시국이라 가이드투어 및 내부 개관이 중단된 상태였다. 그래도 뭐 지나가는 길에 들르기 나쁘지 않겠다 싶어서 7파운드를 내고 예약했다. 결론은 매우멋진 경험!

We visited the grounds on a beautiful spring day. You were still unable to go in to the castle when we went. There is plenty to look at and lots of walking to be had. The grounds and scenery are beautiful. We had our 2 boys with is and went with friends who had their young son with them so we visited the play area. To be honest there wasn't much at the play area for the kids but still plenty of room to run around. The cafe was nice and reasonably priced. We will go back when the castle tours are back up and running.

We didn't go inside castle as the tour was fully booked but grounds, gardens, Cafè and gift shop were a real joy. As the weather was sunny and very warm our first stop was to sit outside the Tea Shop in the courtyard and have coffee. We were given a map on entrance so we planned our route through all the seven different gardens.The Rose Garden was Quintessentially English, absolutely beautiful as were all the other themed gardens, after about a couple of hours we headed back as 'nature called'. The facilities were good with a disabled lavatory as well.<br>We bought one or two gifts from the shop, a beautiful original painting which they had an affordable large selection of and some birthday cards. We were delighted to be introduced to one of the Artists who was serving at the time. We had lunch already planned but noticed they were serving some delicious looking salads... We will definitely be back and be a bit more adventurous over the fields and do the woodland walk and certainly stay for lunch.<br>ps, There is a play area (near The Science Centre) , so we might even bring the Grandchildren.

Came here to take some photos and was delighted with a local private music event. We got to go inside and watch some local musicians sing. Very unique experience. Went outside for sunset and got some epic photos of the castle. Unfortunately crashed my drone into a tree and into the moat! Lol
