Chartwell - Kent

Home of the late Winston Churchill, the garden at Chartwell is set on a hill with magnificent views over the Weald.
This garden has much to see including a golden rose walk created in 1958 by their children. This is within a walled garden with vegetables and sweet peas which has been recently restored. 
The ornamental design reflects the taste of Lady Churchill as does the plantings including the walled rose garden, where clematis intermingle with the roses.
Daffodils, camellias and magnolias give a good spring display. This is a great day out and it is worth paying extra to see the house where Winston Churchill lived.
Editor's choice - everything you want from a great day out with a great house, wonderful gardens and good restaurant!
