Around every corner at Chartwell you will find bursts of summer colour. The borders lining the top terrace of the kitchen garden and the orchard are looking particularly colourful, filled with pinks and purples and lovely scents. The lilies are blooming, the weigela looks fantastic so make sure you take the time to admire the summer borders at Chartwell
This is the view of the summerhouse and the terrace as you come out of the house. I love the chairs that they provide for you to sit and look at the woodland view across the valley. Such a peaceful place.

Sadly rambler/tourist bus services tend not to last. In June 2002 Southlands Travel (Metrobus) were running a service in North West Kent numbered 599. This is Eynsford, a Darent Valley beauty spot. I was rather hoping it might go through the ford, but sadly not! This I'm sure was the only time a bus has gone this way. I think that bus is a bit more than 6'6" wide!
