Bodiam Castle Memories
Share your photographs of Bodiam Castle, old or new, for your chance to win a special prize.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
To celebrate 100 years of the National Trust caring for Bodiam Castle, we are inviting visitors to bring in their physical photographs of Bodiam Castle to enter into a competition to win the unique opportunity to hold the ancient key and unlock the castle, as well as other prizes.
The photo can be of Bodiam Castle old or new, whether it's a fun photo of your family enjoying a sunny day out, or the sunset on a cold winters day, we want to see your favourite images.
To get involved and enter into the competition, you can bring in a physical copy of your photograph into Visitor Reception on your next visit. From there, you will be asked to fill in a short form to enter into the competition.
The winner will be chosen through a public vote inside the castle on our Bodiam 100 Celebration Weekend, on the 12 & 13 September. Entry to the castle is free for all this weekend, so come along and vote for your favourite picture.
Photos can be bought into VR during our usual open hours (10am - 5pm), with the deadline being the 31st August.
We encourage you to bring in copies of your original photos. The photos can be collected from September if you wish for it to be returned.
