The castle is convenient to Westenhanger mainline station one hour from London with a short walk (5 minutes) from the platform or by road on the M20 as far as junction 11 and then 2 miles following signs to Folkestone Racecourse.
The Manor of Westenhanger comprises a large grade 1 listed house of partly 16th century origins, the ruins remains of a 14th century castle, a large stone circular tower converted to a dovecote, a reconstructed set of Tudor kitchens and a range of 16th century outbuildings. The inner keep is a lawned area partly surrounded by a stone curtain wall with a Visitor Centre and other facilities. The moat surrounding this area is dry at present but joins to 20 acres of parkland with mature trees with a small tributary of the River Stour flowing through.
