This is a very nice castle to visit, even at it’s ruined state. The outer walls are indeed free to visit and could be a nice spot for a picnic if not too windy. That said the inside bit is well worth the entrance fee with lots more to see. It doesn’t seem to receive many visitors so we have it all for ourselves for the majority of our time there. Staff at the ticket office/gift shop were lovely and helpful. There are some exhibits here and there and lots of information for those who want. The audio guide is also very informative and they even have a “kids” version. Great for a day out!

The castle of William the Conqueror (William for the English) is very beautiful for its age since it dates just after 1066, his invasion. However, you will have to pay €14 to visit what remains, but it is very informative for history buffs. The visit to the village is also worth the detour.Visited on

Imposing ruined castle with a long history, starting as a Roman fort, and seeing its last defensive role in World War 2, with the hidden gun posts remaining intact to this day.
There are information boards around the site, and a handheld audio guide helps bring the ruins to life. The 16th century gun sitting on a replica carriage is particularly impressive, and it was good to see water in the moat.
There's a small gift shop, and the whole site is dog friendly. The external grounds are free to access, while up to date ticket prices for the castle are on the English Heritage website. Paid public parking is available in the village, a short walk from the castle. Staff were welcoming and helpful, so I was able to make the most of my visit despite arriving late in the day.

Nice ruin and small village. Didn't pay to go inside just had a walk around the outside. Looks like a nice independent tea room by the carpark but we visited on a Sunday and it was closed. Not a full day out activity but nice to visit if passingVisited on

Super place. Mind blowing what us humans achieved so many moons ago. Seems to be a favourite with dog walkers. Outer wall which is free to walk in and out of, inner wall and fortress to be paid for. Amazing.

We had a grey, dreary day, but Pevensey Castle was fascinating. A lot has been destroyed over time, but the tourist information was just right. Minimal staff but very helpful. We had audio to guide us around, which was a great help and highly recommended. No food or drink so take your own. There's a local pub and toilets near the car park.
