We took our kids here and it was a lovely experience. The fort is easily accessible and has no entry fee, which is a plus. It's quiet and serene, great for a family outing. However, there's not much historical info available, and it was a bit dirty in some areas. Still, the views are beautiful, and it's safe for kids to explore.
