Walmer Castle

With a backdrop of undulating cloud yew hedge, the double borders at Walmer Castle are full of colour throughout the summer months. Alongside our expert gardens team, explore the herbaceous borders in the Broadwalk Garden, and marvel at The Kitchen Garden which has grown produce for the castle for nearly 300 yrs.
