  • Hever Castle was the childhood home of Anne Boleyn, second wife of Henry VIII. The castle went through a number of owners since the Boleyn family after passing to the Crown on the death of Anne's father, Thomas Boleyn . In 1903 it was acquired by William Waldorf Astor, an American millionaire, who restored it in Tudor style using, as far as possible, the same tools as Tudor craftsmen. The extensive castle grounds are beautiful in summer, and include a rose garden which is lovely in full bloom. Definitely worth a visit for history-lovers and nature-lovers alike. Highlights include Anne Boleyn's bedroom and the collection of portraits of Henry VIII and his six wives.

It was in such a great location! We loved the pub was downstairs and served such great food and drinks! It was nice to walk upstairs and not have to worry about driving. Free parking was nice. Breakfast was just cereal, cold croissant, and a banana but at least it was free. The room was cute but the ceiling was pretty low. My boyfriend had to duck a lot and couldn’t stand in the shower but he is 6’6”. The bath tube was really nice and relaxing! Staff was great as well and helpful! The room was slightly slanted but it served it purpose which a place to sleep. We did find a door in our room that we couldn’t lock which led to a weird hallway. We wish that door was locked but we pushed the chair up against it and no one bother us so we felt safe.

Great night’s sleep in a beautiful room

I had an absolutely fantastic stay at the Bear Inn and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone considering staying here. The room was beautiful, in great condition, and had everything I could possibly need. The staff were very helpful and made me feel welcome. My one small issue was with the WiFi as it was running very slow and I couldn’t do anything more than text - possibly I just caught it on a bad day though!

Ashdowne Forest

Lovely characterful pub with rooms. Lots of history and great atmosphere. Not very eco to have lots of little disposable toiletries and whilst the breakfast in the basket was a good idea, some of the products could have been more imaginative. How about a local yoghurt and cereal rather than an industrial toffee youghurt and Kellog’s variety cereals?
