About Arundel Castle
Marvel at the magnificence of Arundel Castle, one of England’s largest and most complete castles, dramatically overlooking the River Arun. Home to the Dukes of Norfolk for centuries, families can explore the finely preserved castle interiors, including the impressive Barons’ Hall, library, and private chapel. Climb the ancient Keep for panoramic views of the South Downs and the coast. Wander through the extensive and stunning Collector Earl’s Garden, inspired by classical Italian gardens, and the fragrant Rose Garden. While there isn’t a dedicated playground, the sheer scale of the castle, the battlements, and the beautiful grounds offer plenty to explore. Historical event days featuring knights, battles, and craft demonstrations bring the castle’s rich past vividly to life for all ages.
