Lovely Days Out
Come and join me on my travels
Chartwell was the principal adult home of Sir Winston Churchill. Churchill and his wife Clementine bought the property, located two miles south of Westerham, Kent, England, in 1922. Extensive renovations simplifying and modernising the home were untaken. When it became clear to the Churchills that they could not afford to run the property, a consortium of wealthy businessmen purchased the estate. The arrangement was that for payment of nominal rent both Sir Winston and Lady Churchill would have the right to live there until their deaths, when the property would be presented to the National Trust.

All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word:
freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.
Winston Churchill.

(30 November 1874 – 24 January 1965)
