Ightham Mote
Each successive owner added their own touches to this perfectly preserved medieval manor house. It is not grand but standing in a sheltered wooded cleft, it conjures up the history and atmosphere of 650 years ago. In the serene gardens, natural springs feed the lakes, streams, pools and fountains, and the many garden rooms reflect the ideas of the families that lived here. |
