Castle Hill Road, Dover CT16 1HU.

Dover castle is one of English Heritage’s top attractions, and it’s just a short drive away from Deal. There is plenty to do here even on a rainy day.

The history of the site stretches back to the iron age. The Great Hall has had a £2.45 million refurbishment to showcase the grandeur of Henry II’s court.

The Secret War Time Tunnels reveal the history of the castle as a command centre during World War II. The underground hospital has been restored and is very atmospheric.

The guided tours really add to the enjoyment.
