Family fun With so many things to do and see in Maidstone and its surroundings, family fun is very easy to come by. Heading out on the eastern side of town, stunning Leeds Castle is the jewel in Kent’s crown, providing history, extensive play areas, a maze, wildlife and plenty of space for picnics. If you’re older than 10, you can Go Ape on the tree-top adventure trail, fly down zip-wires and tackle the Tarzan swing while enjoying the breathtaking scenery. The trail is open all year but booking is essential. If you’re on a tight budget, then there is free admission to attractions such as the White Horse Country Park, situated opposite the Kent County Showground on the A249 near Detling . Discovering the North Downs, maybe with a kite and a picnic is also great fun. There’s also no
charge to visit the new look Maidstone Museum and Bentliff Art Gallery in St Faith’s Street. In addition to visiting exhibitions, the museum houses an impressive collection of Japanese art and even has its own dinosaur.
Out of town If you’re looking for change from the bustle of Maidstone’s busy town centre, there are many beautiful villages nestling in the surrounding countryside. Historic places such as Headcorn with its pretty High Street parade of inns and shops, Lenham with its town square and monthly farmers’ market or Yalding with its tea shops, country pubs and Teapot Island, complete with its collection of thousands of teapots. Or try Aylesford where you can enjoy the tranquil surroundings of The Friars and spend some time feeding the ducks. Whatever your choice, Maidstone makes it easy.
