Awake early - left by 8.30 am to meet Chris and Jill at Redhill. Lovely to see them and hear of their doings. Helene had planned a day for us all, so off to Polsden Lacey, a NT property, for the first part of the day. Delightful setting and an interesting house. After this we decided to go to Standen Park and house, where we had a lovely lunch, and explored the house where William Morris designs dominated.
We decide that we still had time on our side so we did a dash to Chartwell, Churchill’s home, but ion arrival was told that the quota for the day had been reach an hour earlier! Nevertheless we were able to look around the outside, the studio and the gardens. Much improved on 30 years ago!
We then drove to Westerham, had a wander, a coffee (but not iced, as the troops were requiring!) drove on and had tea, before dropping Chris and Jill back at the station in Redhill by 8.00pm. Then proceeded to the “UK MOtorhome Parking” POI in Redhill – a great spot for the night!
A very enjoyable day.
