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?

Grounds are not huge, there is a nice walk outside of the castle not sure there’s is much for a child to get up to though.
When we went before, there used to be transport (I think a horse and buggy?) between the station and the castle, but apparently this has stopped. As we will have small children (2&4) in tow this time, does anyone know of any other way of getting between these two locations? I don't even remember if taxis are available, it was a long time ago!

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
