The Leeds Castle Foundation is a registered charity dedicated to protecting and preserving the Castle, the collections and the estate for current and future generations to enjoy.
Experience the extraordinary with an overnight stay within Leeds Castle itself.
Offered on select dates and alongside special dining experiences throughout the year, the State Bedrooms offer an exclusive opportunity to stay in one of the world’s most beautiful castles and to experience its historic surroundings long after day visitors have departed.
The Castle’s six luxurious State Bedrooms are individually designed and richly furnished with period features, combining timeless elegance with modern comfort. Each bedroom features a spacious Art Deco marble en-suite bathroom, while many offer traditional four-poster beds and breathtaking views across the moat, gardens, and surrounding parkland.
Thoughtfully appointed for a truly indulgent stay, guests can enjoy complimentary robes, slippers, and refreshments. A stay in the Castle includes dinner in the Castle View Restaurant followed by breakfast the next morning. From exceptional dining to unforgettable surroundings, every detail has been designed to create a memorable and unique experience.
