Chartwell was the home of Sir Winston Churchill from 1924 until the end of his life. A delightful family home, with stunning views over the weald, which became the place from which Sir Winston drew inspiration. The rooms and gardens remain much as he left them, with pictures, maps and personal mementoes strongly evoking the career and wide-ranging interests of this great statesman. The beautiful terraced gardens contain the lakes he dug, the water garden where Sir Winston fed his fish, and his garden studio in which many of his paintings can be seen.
