This winter, explore the gardens and grounds of Chartwell through the eyes of Winston Churchill, the painter, and see the views that he loved. Be ready to inspire your own creativity, just like he did when he lived here with his family, using painting as an escape.
Follow the trail around the gardens to complete a series of artistic activities. From learning about the techniques that Churchill used, to having a go at a drawing yourself, there’s plenty to get up to all around the beautiful grounds of Chartwell.
Our Art at Chartwell family trail will take you all around the outside of the house and to some of the best views of Chartwell, the gardens and the surrounding countryside of the Weald of Kent.
LOCATION: Chartwell, Mapleton Rd, Westerham, Kent, TN16 1PS
The painting was one of Sir Winston Churchill’s favourite hobbies and he loved to paint special places just like Chartwell. This was the place he called home, which inspired him in life as well as in his artwork.
