Hever Castle Tour: Anne Boleyn's Home.
The first castle on that site was built in 1270 which later on was transformed into a manor by Geoffrey Boleyn in 1462. Anne Boleyn spent her childhood after her father, Thomas Boleyn, inherited the Hever Castle in 1505. It remained in possesion of the Boleyn family from 1462 to 1539.

Nestled in Kent's picturesque countryside, Hever Castle is steeped in tales of romance, intrigue, and Tudor grandeur. This historic site is renowned for its association with Anne Boleyn and King Henry VIII. Among its many events, the Jousting Tournament stands out, showcasing Tudor court splendor.
In the 16th century, jousting epitomized medieval chivalry and prowess, blending skill, bravery, and honor. Hever Castle, then owned by the Boleyn family, hosted these tournaments, attracting knights seeking glory and court favor. It was here that Anne Boleyn, an enigmatic lady-in-waiting, caught King Henry VIII's eye, altering English history.
Anne, known for her beauty and intelligence, captivated many, including the king. As Sir Thomas Boleyn's daughter, she was adept in courtly manners and drew attention. During a Hever Castle jousting tournament, Henry VIII became smitten, igniting an affair that led to her becoming queen consort.
Hever Castle's grounds and elegant architecture provided a backdrop for Anne and Henry's love. In its tranquil gardens, they spent precious moments away from court. The castle's rooms witnessed their secret courtship, deepening their love.

It brought back lots off memories. Loved it is
Great video. Thank you for sharing! I wish I lived in England. It's so beautiful and I'm obsessed with the history.
Brings back fond memories of when we took our two sons there when they were young, they loved the maze garden and getting splashed on the stepping stones and I loved Anne Boleyn's garden especially! I feel you missed so much of the lovely gardens they are so vast, shame your visit was kind of rushed, it's a lovely place to spend the whole day! Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful oak paneling and carving all throughout the castle. I always wondered how Anne of Cleves felt after the castle was given to her, and how many times she stayed there. I wish the portraits had captions, and all the other rooms had captions also.
I've heard it was a favorite place for Anne of Cleves; she even took to cooking for herself.
Why would Henry VIII give away a property that belonged to the Boleyn's to Anne of Cleves? Or, did he kill her and her brother and dishonoured all their family barring them from their property and all that was their heritage?
Yes me too.
Love the video! I was there on a solo backpacking trip 4 years ago. Somehow you managed to make the walk there calm and serene. I on the other hand found it terrifying. There was often no place to walk but directly on the street and found myself preparing to jump into the bushes if necessary to keep from getting run over by fast-moving traffic. When I reached the town I found a woman working in her garden and asked if there was a tram or something to take tourists to the castle. She explained no and when she could see my frustration she gladly offered to drive me rest of the way. There were never clear directions so I found myself wandering in the fields, getting lost on the way back to the train station. Otherwise your video is excellent and brought back amazing memories! I just wanted to point out getting to Hever is NOT easy.
Thank you very much :) for watching my video and sharing your experience.
Thank you for your video. Thank you for taking your time with the tour. I felt like I was there too.
Thank you very much for taking the time to watch my video.
What a lovely video, showing how to get to the castle. When I go I'm staying for a few days so I will probably get a taxi from the station, that walk looked a bit too long for me. Brilliant information, thank you for sharing.
Really enjoyed this video!!
Can you do more like this to other sight seeing castles and areas please!?!
Thank you very much. If you check my channel I have more vids similar to this one: Eynsford and Lullingstone Castle, Bodiam Castle, Tenterden to Bodiam Castle by Steam Train, Hever Castle Jousting Tournament, Tonbridge, St Albans
Love the way you did the video. No talking or harsh breathing 😁 would have liked to read some of the info though. Thankyou for sharing.
Thank you very much for watching my video :) I should have added some more words on description section. I will do later on.
Thanks for filming the journey there.
Good Video thankyou, like other comments to rushed and didnt see many interesting objects up close but I understand it was packed and during covid thankyou! :)
Thank you very much for your kind words. It really was packed and I was waitiing more than 20 min just to get in. It's worth it.
Awesome video :) Great shot!
Blessings frim the USA! Thank you for sharing this especially since many of us can't make the trip! What a delightful tour! I was surprised that cameras were allowed inside.
Thank you very much for your warm words. You may take as much as you need pictures and video. The staff is so friendly and helpful. If you make your mind to do a trip to the UK I could help you with tips about this great country. Just write me here
Thank you for a really good day out.
Thanks you very much for your kind words :)
How very, interesting to see this ! I would love to see this for myself ! The grounds are kept very well, and the scenery is breathtaking! I’m from the Midwest in Ohio, and this castle is gorgeous, but there is alot of walking to do ! Whew !!
Thank you very much for watcing my video. In reality the Hever Castle & Gardens are so much more beautiful and interesting. The distance between Hever Station and the Castle is slightly more than 1 mile. I would be happy to help you whatever I can if you decide to come to the UK. Just write me here
I’ve always wanted to visit the landmarks and learn more about the historic building
Brings back such good memories. We visited on a wed and thurs in early July 2019. It was not crowded and we took our time. We had also come from St. Pancras Sta but rented a car and stayed a couple nights at the Greyhound Inn not far from Hever. The castle is so beautiful, but the grounds are amazing. so many different gardens. We walked all the way around the man made lake and into the shady gardens full of rhododendrons. We stopped at the tea room along the lake and watched a gardener work on an espalier. What a wonderful day, thanks for letting me relive it a bit.
Such lovely sheep.
Lovely duckies.
Thank you for this video! It gives so much better an idea of the place than the few photos I have seen in books.
Thank you very much :)
Wow what a lovely house she lived in.
I appreciate this thorough tour. I’m making a replica of this castle in a video game and have been using this as visual reference more than any other source
Amazing! Thank you very much :) I am so flattered :)
A very well made video , so comprehensive that it shows almost everything of Anne's home -- from the coming to and going back from it. However , how much better would it have been had all the portraits shown in the video as well as the everyday objects used by the Queen in her early life been labelled or narrated verbally. Nevertheless , the video is excellently made, ideal for people living far away in other countries such as India. Thanks.
Thank you very much :)
memories of visiting my uncle and aunt at a nearby farm Lock Skinners if I remember, we came from east croydon to Heaver station on a steam train, remember the walk from the station but only went in the castle grounds to pick daffodils, memories of walking the local fields many years ago with my cousins.
Thank you very much :)
Thank you for this. I have always wanted to see Hever Castle. You did a good job, especially with all the people.
Look at those tapestries. Amazing.
Wow to walk where Anne Boleyn walked.
Thanks it brought back lots off memories. Loved it. 😍
Thank you very much for your warm words. I appreciate that.
Great video! Feel like we are experiencing the whole trip; buses, roads and towns! Plus the castle and grounds. And I like that there is no narrating bc I feel the viewer can look at what they decide 😊
Thanks for the video! Suggestion: please talk to us while filming and let us know what we're seeing.
Very nice ramble.
Thank you so much for that walk to the castle . I won't be able to know Hever Castle in this lifetime. But now I know the way. Thank you
Thank you very much :)
Beautiful thatched cottage.
Love the smart resh green paint at Hever railway station.
I’d be happy to see more footpath walks in the countryside, or garden tours. Inside the castle, you skimmed over some interesting items a bit too fast, but in all a delightful tour.
Thanks for watching my video. I couldn't put all the shootings in the video not because I do not want to but because it would have been very long. It is now 4K, 1.20h and when I exported the video it took about 24 hours and 5 hours to be uploaded. I have more videos with countryside veiw on my channel: Eynsford Castle and Lulliongstone Roman Villa, Bodiam Castle, Steam train to Bodiam, Windsor boat Ride.
Thank you!! So much effort went into this! I agree with the other person that the views getting there eere a delight. I don't know if I will ever get to England so I feel like I have been here today through you. Thank you again. Ironically, I found the interior a disappointment as it look more like a museum than a historical preservation.If I do get there, you've saved me a disappointment. LOL
What a lovely video. With all the restrictions in this world and my age I will never fe able to visit on my own but you have made the perfect video for me. Thank you very much
Thank you very much :)
The trees along the road are amazing.
What gorgeous wildflowers.
PS - I enjoyed "riding" the train with you. It was an opportunity to see some additional countryside.🙂
Oh, trains are amazing in the UK. Did you watch my video Tenterden Town to Bodiam Castle by Steam Train | 4K ruclips.net/video/HyZnHj7HQiI/видео.html I hope you gonna like the ride :)
Lovely railway carriage at the station.
Love this, but wish you would have let us see what the signs say. If this was the USA, it would have been packed with tourists much more visitors than here.
Thank you very much for your comment. I visited the Hever Castle & Garden in 2021 while whole country was still on restrictions because of the pandemic, although it was packed with people.
Abfab video - merci beaucoup! A lifelong Anglophile, I enjoyed recognizing and Bolin’s contemporaries and would appear to be reproductions. Loved how you presented Haver castle and travel.
Apologies for typos. I dictated my comment because my eyesight is awful, but clearly neglected to prove it.
Thank you very much for lovely words :) I appriciate that
@@dolinaj1 No worries. Everithing you wrote is fine and I am very much grateful for taking time to watch my video
Love the path from the train station.
Clover right down to the creek.
Grass right down to the river.
Beautiful gardens.
I will be visiting for the first time this coming September. Would you recommend taking the train to Edenbridge Town and taking a taxi from there? There are no taxis from Hever station, and the walk looks treacherous when walking on the road. Thank you for the video.
Thanks for watching my video. I would recommend to walk from Hever railway station to Hever castle. It is not that treacherous because you walk through meadows and beautiful English countryside and only 5 min on road. If you take taxi from Edenbridge you need to think about your way back. It is up to you, however, I'd rather take a walk :)
Nice to have right of way over a field.
Wow England is so clean the walls and stairway s....here in America everything is dirty now. It's been happening last 3-4 yrs badly/worst. Wonderful to see thank you for sharing God bless sincerely Everett WA USA 😁🐕🦺👍🙏👍🇺🇸
Small rooms because it was hard to keep them heated. Elizabeth I complained she had, ‘lived my life in little rooms. Marathon walking!
Thanks for watching my video. It was very pleasant walk across beautiful English countryside. It's only one mile :)
Beautiful. Is there a shuttle bus from the railway station for us oldies?
I'm local to Hever Castle, there is no shuttle bus from Hever Station to the castle.
I would suggest getting a taxi from and to Edenbridge Town Station.
I wasn't expecting such ornate ceilings. Wonder if the furniture was similar to how it was originally furnished.
Fantastic tour, thank you so much.....loved it.🙂
Thank you very much :) My love to NZ where I haven't been yet :)
From New Zealand....
Love the bracken.
Am I the only one seeing a weird monster hand at 42:57??? Near the painting of Henry VIII. Please comment!?!
Thanks for watching my video. To be honest I have just noticed that object which resebles to a gigant hand of a beast. I checked some of my pictures taken by a photo camera. The object is there and the shape is seen with more details - with long sharp nails and a red line on each finger. It's quite odd ... I did not see such an object on pictures of The Queens' Chamber available on internet
Is the footpath to Hever Castle clearly marked? It seemed you just veered off the road with no markings.
Thanks for taking your time to watch my video. Once you get off the railway startion you see sings that mark the path all the way down to the Hever Castle. I just walked out of the path because I wanted to shoot beautiful English countryside.
How far is the walk
@@bennylawrence6221 It's about 15 minutes
Surely Henry VIII didn't take the tram.
That's for sure :)
How long did her family hold this amazing castle
Thanks for watching my video. The Castle was owned by the Boleyn family from 1462 to 1539.
It's a pity in most of these videos that so little attention is paid to detail. If you stood still long enough to let us read the plaques, look at the paintings, study the details like hinges and latches and draperies.
I'm definitely the oddball here. The first half hour of this video was just riding the subway, a train, and walking. Truly boring. If you want to skip that and get to the reason you clicked on this video, start at 30:00.
Loved the video, just wish you could have stopped and let us read the signs and show more of the details on the bed and furniture. I will admit I almost stopped watching because between the train ride and walk the video was already half way done.I’m happy I waited through though. If you ever go again would you please focus a little more time on the signs? Or even just focus for like a minute, long enough for us to be able to pause the video to read then ourselves? Wonderful work!
Couldn't get an Uber from the train?
@@joconnell6707 I didn't try to call Uber because I prefer walking :) Thank you very much :) for watching my video
Thank you very much :) for watching my video. I didn't include signs because it would be much longer and on that day the Castle was full of people. I put captions instead.
No way! I loved knowing how to get there! Awesome video.
@@Ruben74 Thank you very much :)
...love the tour, but don’t understand why there’s a grand piano in the drawing room...wouldn’t a virginal be more period?...
It is such a pity that you went through all the trouble to get there, and on foot all the way from the station and not have taken the opportunity to capture the very many details and history of the castle. I stopped watching half way through, totally disheartened by the lack of historical content. For a tour of a historical palace/mansion, house, etc., you need to take the time to document so many items, portraits, etc., all that you are seeing. Anne Boleyn is huge in history and to see her home and just run through it with your camera, was not fair.
Also, to get there from Hever station is a huge walk through pathways and open fields with nobody insight to ask questions since the signage was rather poor, if there was any at all. There must be another way to get there taking a shuttle bus, some form of transportation; very odd the way you took to get there; mind you, the fields were lovely in a lush green.
Thank you.
Thank you for this. I like this try it before you buy it type of video. I can’t wait to visit England. Half my dna is eastern Yorkshire. This place reminds me of the Methodist church building in Plattsburg Missouri where I was indoctrinated with the bull💩 of Christianity growing up. Fascinating how similar that looks to the church I grew up in. I think I’d like to put flowers on Anne’s grave and go visit all things that existed before the Jesus Christ lies. I need a break from that drama and unholy decor.
too long without editing. js
Oh dear a troll under there.
Celtic cross.
Disappointed absolutely no information just the walk around with a video camera
The first thirty one minutes of the film is a tube system and people walking and riding towards the castle. Thirty one minutes. Fast forward. Save yourselves.
Thank you for watching my video. This is my type of narrative because I enjoy riding a train, walking through the beautiful English countryside. And what is not less important I've made an attempt to show how to get to the Castle, what to expect, what could see along the way.
I like the way the video was made, it helped to understand how to get to the castle in a variety of ways. And, it feels like you are the one on the tour!
The best thing about technology is you can fast forward or rewind how you like.
And the train...wow. America transit is awful.....dirty loud wrong way and into dirty street s ....walls griffity.. wow. I'm impressed. Wow
35 minutes of garbage to start
Thank you very much for watching my video :) I appreciate that
