Guests can enjoy the garden at Millfields House with its wildlife pond which is home to a small colony of Great Crested Newts.  Flowering trees and shrubs provide structure for a variety of spring flowers, bulbs, roses, herbaceous perennials, grasses and climbers offering colour and interest throughout the year.   

For the true garden lover the celebrated Sissinghurst, created by Vita Sackville-West is close by. Within easy reach is the award winning garden at Pashley Manor where you can enjoy delicious lunches and teas on the terrace overlooking the lakes. For Spring colour, wonderful bluebells, and magnificent wisteria visit Hole Park at Rolvenden in Spring and early Summer. Delightful Marle Place, romantic Scotney Castle and the innovative and experimental garden created by Christopher Lloyd - Great Dixter - are within a short drive. Within an hour are Sheffield Park, Nymans, Wakehurst Place (Kew's garden in the country and home to the National Seed Collection), Groombridge Place, Emmetts and many more.

Near Sevenoaks two hidden treasures await - Charts Edge at Westerham and Great Comp near Plaxtol. If you love buying plants Great Dixter has a wonderful nursery and at Merriments, near Hawkhurst you can buy good quality plants, visit their lovely 4-acre garden and enjoy an excellent light lunch or afternoon tea in their licensed cafe.
