Leeds Castle, Kent

Garden of England, Kent

Setting out from Leeds Castle, known as ‘the loveliest castle in the world', you'll pass through an Area of Outstanding Beauty. The pretty village of Lenham dates from Roman times, boasts two rivers, and is rich with footpaths. On to the ancient Wealden village of Headcorn, with its 14th- and 15th-century timbered buildings. Through the market town of Staplehurst to Cranbrook, with its windmill, and on along a Roman road towards Boughton Monchelsea with the oldest lychgate in England in its church. Sutton Valence castle, built in traditional local ragstone style, offers marvellous views across the Kentish Weald.
