As of July 2025 the Villa is intermittently open, and free as walking around at ground level is not permitted (issues with mould). You can, however, see the site from a viewing window, & be told the history of the place. Stuart was my "guide" and was highly knowledgable and interesting.

Very nice grounds and house👍

Lullingstone Country Park is a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). The park is home to diverse flora and fauna and features trails that wind through ancient woodlands and grasslands. As well as this, it's home to Lullingstone Castle, a historic manor house with a unique World Garden. This garden showcases plants from around the globe and is a testament to the adventurous spirit of the owners who collected them.

Ightham Mote is a medieval moted manor house owned and managed by the National Trust. It was built almost 700 years ago and houses a collection of interesting objects and art. The property has gardens and a wider estate which you can visit if you wish. It's paid entry unless you are a NT member. There's also a cafe and shop on site which makes it a great place to either start a run or stop at halfway. If you're running here, the most obvious loop starts at Ightham Mote, Knole or Sevenoaks station and follows the Greensand Way. There are lots of other options within the 580-acre (235 ha) estate to explore if you fancy staying local.

Slight deviation from the trail route, but it is well worth a quick visit. This remaining tower once formed part of Archbishop's Palace, hosting the likes of King Henry VIII.

It's just idyllic and the cafe is not bad either
