Perched on the cliffs overlooking the sea, this architectural gem is a sight to behold. As you wander through its grand halls and lush gardens, you'll feel like you've stepped back in time. With Easter just around the corner, the castle is adorned with floral displays, making it the perfect backdrop to enjoy spring and the Easter events they have on, including the Outdoor Easter trail happening at Highcliffe Castle. Afterwards, you can wander down to the beach and take in the fresh sea air whilst admiring the views- a perfect end to a spring day.
