About

Enjoy an unforgettable hot air balloon ride over Hollingbourne, right next door to the stunning Leeds Castle with Virgin Flights.

Leeds Castle – a mere stone’s throw away – will likely be the first amazing landmark for you to admire on your airborne voyage.

You will take off from the 24 acre private grounds of the stunning Mercure Maidstone Hotel. The perfect place for your pre- or post-flight refreshments, wind-willing this site gives you this fantastic opportunity to fly in a hot air balloon over Leeds Castle, the site of which dates back to 1119.

The fairy tale castle standing today, which was mostly built in 19th century in the Tudor style, enjoys a spectacular setting on top of two islands surrounded by the River Lense. Look out for the maze, grotto and a newer addition of the golf course.

As you drift along you can look out for the orchards, vineyards and oast houses which are characteristic of Kent, ‘The Garden Of England’, and don’t miss the panoramic views of Maidstone, the county town.
