Dover: Castle
Description
With it's Norman keep on top of the White Cliffs the castle looms over the town. The site has an even older history dating back to Saxon and Roman times. A visit to the castle requires a full day to be able to see everything. It's advisable to bring a picnic with you as whilst there are cafes and restaurants inside the Castle complex they are all very expensive and not of particularly good quality (2015 - £4.00 for a limp cheese and ham sandwich).
Charge
The Castle is Expensive to get into, and whilst it is nominally free for English Heritage members if any event is taking place an access charge is made even to EH card holders.
Getting There
From the centre of town it’s a good 20 minute stiff walk up hill to the castle, and from the station add on another 10 minutes to get into town. From the centre of town the hourly (every other hour on Sunday) number 15 to Deal (NOT 15A) runs up to a stop above the pedestrian entrance to save your legs the walk. Alternatively Dover has a reasonable number of taxi's that charge reasonable rates.
