In terms of both size and tourism, Arundel Castle is one of the biggest in the UK.  On offer to the visitor is a Norman keep, Victorian gothic buildings, terrific gardens and a restaurant that has been awarded our own special Castles4kids five star award (Good quality tasty food+reasonable prices=empty plates all round)

Although a lot of the castle today is the result of a Victorian re-build, it does in fact date back to Norman times, when it was part of a chain of defences around Sussex , presumably built to deter further sea invasions. Roger of Montgomery was the original builder, but in time the castle passed into the Fitzalan family, who were the Earls of Arundel. Eventually the final Fitzalan heiress married into the Howard family, who held the title of the Dukes of Norfolk, and  Arundel Castle has been owned by the Norfolks ever since.
