You'll find the glorious West Dean Gardens at the foot of the South Downs, near Chichester in West Sussex.
You'll want to make sure to allow a fair bit of time to make your way around West Dean Gardens as there's so much to see and do here.
The carefully restored gardens are home to a 100-metre long Edwardian pergola designed by Harold Peto, adorned with clematis, roses and wisteria. You might even catch an open-air theatre performance in the amphitheatre if you visit during the summer.
You'll also find an orchard, a kitchen garden, an arboretum, a sunken garden, and 13 working Victorian glasshouses filled with strawberry plants, figs, nectarines, peaches, and more.
Where to stay: The Goodwood Hotel in Chichester is a lovely place to stay, with a health club, indoor pool, and three dining options to enjoy. Plus, if you haven't had your fill of the outdoors, you can spend time exploring the estate.
