Discover some of the Rich History woven within Kent Walls of Battle Abbey

Rudyard Kipling's estate in East Sussex is a wonderful place that is managed and maintained by the National Trust. Here you can stroll through the orchard, the vegetable garden and the formal garden. Then you can visit the house from 1634 and the old mill, where Kipling had a generator installed early on to supply the house with electricity. Here they are trying to make the garden a perfect place for insects and especially for bees. To this end, a lot of experimentation is being done with flower meadows - you can wander through at least one of them during your visit. The house looks very grand and elegant, but turns out to be a gloomy block inside - as is often the case with these old, historic buildings.

The battlefield walk is inside the abbey grounds, so costs to get in. It’s an English Heritage site.

Why no sign to explain it here here? We found the explanation on a board outside Battle Abbey! Text here for your convenience haha There are ten Bayeux Tapestry inspired sculptures by local artist Keith Pettit along the 1066 Country Walk. The figure hiding in the trees beside the path to the south west of this spot represents King Harold and Duke William, divided and scorched by conflict, yet united by desire for the crown of England.

I was surprised how much we enjoyed it! The audio guides are really interesting and we learned and experienced a lot. I would definitely come again, there is a lot to see and the big tour we chose covered everything. The shop was great too. The houses and (battle) grounds are managed by English Heritage.

A very masculine house, low ceilings and quite dark. Book lovers will get their money's worth! The garden is famous for its pear trees, and now in April the tulips are blooming beautifully. We didn't find the mill particularly interesting - even though it is highly praised - but the house and garden were beautiful.

Stunning 11th Century monastery built by William the Conqueror on the site of the Battle of Hastings. As well as the ruins, which you can wander around with your bike, there is a great visitors center. Well worth exploring when you're in Battle.
