It was my dream to visit this place and exceeded all of my expectations. The staff was kind, sympathetic, and well-informed. So much information to share about the house and such passion. 100% worthy and an unforgettable life experience. Also, the place is astonishing. The garden is well-preserved. It’s like a fairy tale.

This is a, 16th century cottage where the famous English writer Virginia Woolf and her husband Leonard Woolf lived from 1919. This cottage is undertaken by National Trust and they preserved the artifacts and household items used by the Woolfs. There is a beautiful garden located in front of the cottage with lots of plants , apple and pear trees. Really loved visiting this place.

I was struck by the impressive knowledge of the life of both Virginia and Duncan Grant from all the volunteers I spoke to. The small cottage is brought alive by objects and paintings owned by the couple. The gardens are beautiful and larger than I thought they would be and the views to the downs stunning. A great place to visit.
