Sissinghurst Castle Garden

#tesaruonbudget Estate Walks: Free Vistas and Picnic Perfection #tesaruonbudget #freewalks #picnicperfection #sissinghurstvistas While the formal garden rooms have an admission fee, the wider 450-acre Sissinghurst estate is free to access and offers breathtaking views that are absolutely worth the trip. The estate walks take you through fields, past the working farm, and offer stunning vantage points of the iconic tower rising above the trees—the exact view Vita Sackville-West and Harold Nicolson enjoyed. I packed a full lunch and water bottle, utilizing the designated picnic areas near the car park and vegetable garden. This strategy allowed me to absorb the atmosphere, see the structure of the castle itself, and enjoy the beautiful Kent countryside for only the cost of transport and a packed sandwich. It’s a fantastic way to appreciate the scale and romance of Sissinghurst on a zero-entry-fee budget.
