Very nice grounds and house👍

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.

The Greensand Way follows a ridgeline of greensand rock across Surrey and Kent, offering glorious views of the surrounding landscapes. Here below Shingle Hill and Wilmot Hill the views south are particularly spectacular. Well worth a stop to admire the Eden Valley and countryside surrounding Tonbridge.

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

A stunning 14th-century moated manor, Igtham Mote lays claim to being one of the most beautiful country houses in England. In the care of the National Trust, it is surrounded by gardens, lakes and woodlands. For more information, visit: nationaltrust.org.uk/ightham-mote

A medieval deer park, there are still hundreds of deer that roam freely throughout the Knole Estate. It is a great place for cycling with families and a coffee shop at the house is a welcome addition. Please respect the deer, which are wild animals, by keeping your distance and taking all litter home with you.

Beautiful overlook with benches

In addition to visiting the historic manor house, a visit to the beautiful gardens and short hikes on the estate are also worthwhile.
