Dover Castle - not great for dogs or babies
Our first day of exploring in Kent. As English Heritage members, we chose Dover Castle for our first stop. It's huge and has lots to explore. However, not with a pram (because of the cobbles) or with dogs (because much of it is in the tunnels). I'd of loved to have visited inside the tunnels and the underground hospital used in the wars, but alas dogs aren't allowed. It was a nice sunny day, and I enjoyed seeing the people in costume and in character when they greeted you, but glad we didn't have to pay because we didn't see most of the castle. The stories were interesting, about Operation Dynamo and WW1 but alas, I had to read it online instead. We were able to see a roman lighthouse, saxon church, statue of Ramsay and a gorgeous view over the bay of Dover though. Something that did put us off was that we were constantly asked to see our wristbands, as though we just happened to walk in an not pay.
