Windsor

The Saturday before last we went to Windsor to see C’s friend Sara, and as she’s working at Windsor Castle she was able to get us complimentary tickets to go in. Now, what can I say about the castle, it was nice for a castle, but you don’t actually get to see that much of it, and even though the tickets were free, we both felt a bit disappointed by it, thank god we didn’t have to pay the £28 entry fee (£14 each).

After the tour of the castle, and a quick walk round the gift shops, we met up with Sara and went for a lovely meal in the King and Castle along Thames Street.

Windsor itself looked like a lovely area, with some lovely looking areas by the Thames, unfortunately we didn’t have a chance to really explore Windsor, something we’ll do next time.

If you drive to Windsor, you should really make a day of it, and not just afternoon like we did, as finding a parking space can take a while, and a lot of the car parks are on the expensive side costing almost £10 for 5 or more hours. Fortunately we parked in the King Edward Court car park, which only cost £4 for the same amount of time.
