England’s most charming castle creates a little Christmas magic

One of England’s great tourism draws is its medieval castles, and the most romantic of these is Leeds Castle in Kent. Now, the 900-year-old castle has launched a new package to celebrate the magic of the Victorian Christmas.

The charming evening event includes a host of activities to get the whole family into the yuletide spirit.

Board the Victorian land train and enjoy festive music as you are taken past the beautifully-lit castle to the festive Fairfax Courtyard, which will be alive with entertainers, Punch and Judy shows, carol singers around a traditionally decorated Christmas tree and street vendors offering traditional sweets, chocolates, roast chestnuts and wooden toys.
