Billing itself as the world's loveliest castle, Leeds Castle has plenty to back up its claim. Inside there's luxury in every corner. Outdoors, there's a Go Ape assault course, seasonal circuses and great golfing to try. And since it was good enough for one of Henry VIII's wives, it deserves a place on any traveller's list. Forget the long drive home and catch forty winks at these campsites near Leeds Castle, instead.
