Why visit Hever Castle? You can walk around and go inside a beautiful medieval castle built in 1271. See the childhood home of Anne Boleyn, Henry VIII’s second wife and queen for only 1000 days. Visit the place where Henry VIII made frequent visits, at first to see his mistress, Mary, Anne’s sister and later to “court” Anne herself. Wander through rooms that would have been familiar to Anne as well as restored rooms that have been furnished sympathetically according to the wishes of the Aster family from America. Marvel at one of the best collections of Tudor Portraits in the country after the National Portrait Gallery according to the renowned historian, Dr David Starkey.
