In 1922, Winston and Clementine Churchill purchased Chartwell, which they would call home for the next forty years.

At home, not only was Churchill a politician and statesman, but also a husband, father, writer, painter, and garden planner. It was very significant to him till he passed away in 1965. The rooms of the house are decorated in the same way they were when he lived there, with portraits, books, and personal mementos, while a unique exhibition including 50 artifacts provides a closer look into his life.

Chartwell’s hillside gardens reflect his passion for the outdoors. The lakes he built, the kitchen garden, and the Marycot, a playhouse built for his youngest daughter Mary, are among them. There is extensive woods with looping pathways and natural play spaces beyond the gardens, as well as the den building and Canadian camp.
