Penshurst Place & Gardens

A testament to the enduring legacy of British aristocracy, Penshurst Place & Gardens offers visitors a captivating exploration of one of England's oldest family homes. With origins dating back to the 14th century, the grand manor house and its 11 acres of Elizabethan walled gardens provide a snapshot of the English country life of yore.

The gardens, meticulously designed, serve as verdant canvases expressing the seasonal shifts of nature.

An engaging audio tour further weaves tales of notable figures like King Henry VIII and Archbishop Thomas Becket, and historic events such as Simon de Montfort's rebellion.
