Kent is full of small villages and ancient market towns with beautiful churches.  Knole and Penshurst, two of the great treasure-houses of England; Chartwell, childhood home of Winston Churchill; Hever Castle, once home to Anne Boleyn and Sissinghurst, one of the world’s most sensational gardens, are just a few of the attractions of this old county.

It was once a Jutish kingdom and geographically has always been open to influence from Europe.  It is still a rural county with feudal traditions and a deep folk culture with many fine buildings of all ages from castles like Bodiam to mansions by Sir Edwin Lutyens.
