About this property

Set within approximately 42 acres of enchanting woodland and riverside grounds along the idyllic River Medway, Allington Castle is a rare and evocative offering: a beautifully restored 12th-century medieval castle combining historic grandeur with modern lifestyle and commercial potential.<br /><br />Located three miles north west of Maidstone, this remarkable private residence is steeped in nearly a thousand years of English history. Mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, the estate has passed through distinguished ownership, including the Wyatt family, who transformed the castle into a grand residence in the late 15th century.
