What's on in Kent - Lympne Castle

Nestled within the very heart of The Garden District of England, Kent, Lympne Castle is unsurpassed as an exquisite and romantic setting for a wedding celebration or event. With architectural refurbishment designed by the infamous Sir Robert Lorimer, Lympne Castle has been a first-class host to royalty including King Henry VIII, nobility including Sir Tomas Beecham, and the Archbishop of Canterbury as well as many glamorous guests (Paul McCartney recorded his Wings Album, Back to the Egg, at Lympne Castle and Mick Jagger was a frequent guest). Needless to say, the beautiful and historic Lympne Castle has hosted glamourous guests for over 1000 years and is truly one of England’s most beautiful and historic castles.

The castle, with unsurpassed views, overlooks the Romney Marsh and, on a clear day, France, and is situated on 139 acres spotted with ancient Roman ruins. Marrying historic allure with contemporary comforts, the castle conjures an experience that lingers in memory – an experience that paints an indelible canvas for both you and your cherished guests.

Discover Lympne Castle, where unforgettable events are complemented by breathtaking views. Immerse yourself in the charm of our Medieval Pub, open most days, offering delectable cuisine against a backdrop of unparalleled scenery. Experience a plethora of special events throughout the year, from Medieval Times with quiz nights and board game extravaganzas to craft fairs and festive celebrations. Embark on your own fairytale journey at Lympne Castle.
