Sissinghurst was home to Vita Sackville-West and Harold Nicholson, part of the 'Bloomsbury group', friends and/or lovers of Virginia Woolf amongst many others. Both Vita and Harold were avid gardeners and Sissinghurst, now part of the National Trust is their legacy, if ever you have a yen to visit, it's a manageable day trip from London.
