Lose yourself in this romantic 14th century moated manor house. With free talks and tours, children’s quizzes, a restaurant and shop, this is the perfect place to visit for a memorable day out in Kent.

Built nearly 700 years ago, this house has seen many changes and been owned by medieval knights, courtiers to Henry VIII and high-society Victorians. Highlights include the picturesque courtyard, Great Hall, crypt, Tudor painted ceiling, Grade I listed dog kennel and the private apartments of Charles Henry Robinson, who gave Ightham Mote to the National Trust in 1985. The building is surrounded by peaceful gardens with an orchard, water features, lakes and woodland walks.

Make the most of your day out with free introductory and garden talks, shop for unique gifts and enjoy locally sourced food in our Mote Restaurant. For the children there are plenty of quizzes, activities and events to keep them busy.
