Sissinghurst Castle Garden is one of the world's most celebrated gardens, the creation of Vita Sackville-West and her husband, Sir Harold Nicolson. Developed around the surviving parts of an enclosed Elizabethan mansion with a central red-brick prospect tower, a series of small, enclosed compartments, intimate in scale and romantic in atmosphere, provide outstanding design and colour through the season. The study, where Vita worked, and Long Library, are also open to visitors.
