Overview of your Dover tour

Before settling in London almost 300 years ago , My family were in service in Kent. I love this tour for so many reasons. My love of gardening and gardens also allows us to indulge ourselves in the Mount Ephram Gardens. We will visit the quaint and beautiful village of Chilham. With its 16th century architecture. We will move on to a 300 year Family run Mount Ephraim Country house and garden. Here we will walk around the gardens taking in its beauty smells and history and can stop for tea if you wish. We will continue our journey to Whitstable an old English Fishing port taking in the gorgeous English coastline. This treat is not on everyones tour so come with me for a special treat to this old fishing port. famous for its alleys quaint shops and beach huts, along with its fish and chips. And if desired, we can walk along part of the coastline.
