The castle looks imposing as you approach it and does not disappoint once you are inside. The kids loved it. Go for a day out and take the old train from Tenterden. Full review by Odyssey63309377911

Are the Castle grounds worth a visit? Was wondering how large The grounds are, Are there any gardens or forest areas that could keep our toddler busy for at least a couple hours and worth an our and half drive?

Q:
Does anyone know if I can gain access to take a picture of the front of the castle whilst the site is closed? Kind Regards Joe

I'm not sure but you should be able to get a distant photo. It would also depend on the amount of tree foliage that may obscure the castle
Q:
If you are a National Trust Member, do you still pay for entry to the castle?

Personally I don't have young children , but my partner and I both think that it,s such a short distance between the Steam railway station and Bodiam castle that it,s easy to walk the short distance without any difficulties . There is pavement on most of this route to walk along . I wish you a happy visit to this impressive castle . I,m sure that your kids will love seeing all the large fish in the moat . Best regards , Chris
