Best 10 Places To Visit In Kent 2023, England
Often referred to as the Garden of England due to its endless acres of orchards and lush gardens, the county of Kent offers no end of fun things to do for those willing to wander a little further off the beaten track.
Not only is Kent well-known for its relatively mild climate, it also boasts some of England's oldest and most important historic attractions. It was in Kent that the Romans launched their invasion of England some 55 years before the birth of Christ, and where, over 500 years later, the Christian faith was first introduced to the island nation. As a result of these events, you'll often find Roman ruins brushing up against important religious sites, as is the case in the cathedral city of Canterbury.
Kent also boasts some of the most spectacular scenery in England. Visit the east coast of Kent, and you'll see the famous White Cliffs of Dover looking out towards neighboring France, visible in the distance. This same coastline is home to some 50 or more Kentish beaches, most of them easy day trips from London.

Audley End House & Gardens
Situated not far from Safron Walden in North Essex, Audley End is considered to be one of the finest Jacobean houses in the UK. Build on the foundations of Walden Abbey, a Benedictine monastery established in the 12th century. When the Abbey was dissolved by Henry VIII in 1538 it was granted to his loyal supporter Sir Thomas Audley (1487 - 1544)
Throughout the centuries since it has passed through various prominent families until its last sitting owner Richard Neville, later 3rd Earl Braybrooke, took on the mantle and upkeep of the house and its grounds in 1820.
It was in 1948, after being used as the headquarters of the Polish section of the Special Operations Executive, that the house was bought for the nation from Lord Braybrook.
