bern
get in touch with "friends of dover castle".
15 quid or so a year, you will end up going many times.
great cafes, also picnic areas for those who wish to bring their own grub .
events are always going on in holiday periods, great staff up there too, always helpful and knowledgeable.

I've not had the opportunity to visit the Castle since it was refurbished, but understand from those who have, that it is just amazing.
To encourage more visitors to the Castle to come into Town and the other historic sites we have, I took lots of the Discover Dover (English and French versions) leaflets there (Dover Castle is of course on the front page of the leaflet); sadly, I've now run out of the English versions and can't reprint anymore until payments for the ones printed, have been received.
