A Tudor Castle in a beautiful seaside town. Climb to the battlements and enjoy the very best views of sailing in the Solent. As you watch the yachts pass through the narrow channel between Yarmouth and the New Forest, you’ll understand why Henry VIII built this, his final fortress.

Commanding the mouth of the Solent since 1547, Yarmouth was the first Arrow Head Castle in Britain. Today you can picnic on the rampart lawns, or see the Isle of Wight paintings and memorable photographs of Old Yarmouth.
