Chartwell is the family home of Winston Churchill. He purchased this property in 1924 till his death in 1965.

The house is open for viewing and it is pretty much how it was when the Churchill family lived in it. The property reflects Sir Winston's love of the landscape and nature. He and his wife developed extensive gardens including a vegetable garden and orchard. A large collection of Churchill's paintings are also on display in his Studio.
We spent a good couple of hours wandering the grounds and looking through the house. The views across the Kent countryside from the house and grounds are reason enough for the visit.
