Highcliffe Castle is a magnificent Grade I listed building situated just 4 miles east of Christchurch. Built in the 1830's by Lord Stuart de Rothesay, in the romantic picturesque style, the Castle incorporates beautiful medieval stone work. The Castle is set in cliff top grounds with access to the Christchurch Coastal Path and, the unfurnished staterooms, now house the Heritage Centre, which reflect and define the Castle's chequered history.

The Castle is a stunning venue for an exciting range of exhibitions, concerts and outdoor events and is also available for Civil Ceremonies, Receptions, Banquets and Events.

The grounds are open all year round and are free to visitors.(Note:- car parking charges apply). Both grounds and Castle are fully wheelchair accessible.
