Born from the keen amateur but creative minds of both Winston and Clementine Churchill, the gardens of Chartwell are as varied as they are beautiful the whole year round. History and nature merge seamlessly across the estate from the distinctive pastel colours of pink and white roses favoured by Lady Churchill, fruit and vegetables framed by the walls Sir Winston Churchill helped build, to acres of woodland and wider meadows.
Although we have had to close some parts of our play areas, including the treehouse, due to government restrictions, with 80 acres of grounds to explore there's still plenty to keep the kids busy this spring with a visit to Chartwell.
Our café outlet has reopened and will initially be serving a limited range of takeaway hot and cold drinks and some light snacks. We've introduced new safety measures including closure of our seating areas, screens at our till and collection points and waymarked routes. We'll also only be accepting card payment. We look forward to welcoming you back and know that you'll support us to make this a safe experience to everyone.
Spring is here and nature is looking beautiful! Shake off the winter cobwebs and head out exploring with our 50 things to do before you're 11¾ checklist. How many can you complete?
