Lympne Castle, A Medieval English Experience

Medieval Times Hog Roast

Step back in time and immerse yourself in the enchanting world of medieval festivities! Picture a grand feast featuring a succulent hog roast, its tantalising aroma wafting through the air, accompanied by the sweet and robust flavours of traditional mead. Marvel at skilled archers and jugglers, while magicians weave spells of wonder and fire breathers mesmerise with their daring acts.

Delight in the vibrant hues of face painters transforming eager faces. Families can come together as little ones engage in medieval-themed crafts, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Relax amidst period furniture, enjoying your roasted hog (yes, vegetarian options are available) and toast the beautiful views of the English Channels with a pewter mug.

This is not just an event; it’s a journey through time, where the spirit of the medieval era comes alive in a tapestry of sights, tastes, and experiences.

Arguably one of the most beautiful historic and scenic castles in the world, Lympne Castle is situated high on a hill on 139 acres spotted with Ancient Roman ruins.

Join us for a day of merriment, where the magic of the past awaits!

Medieval Times, Medieval Fun on Monday 25th August 2025 from 12:00 until 18:00.....come join in with the Medieval Experience!
