Mount Ephraim is a beautiful family-owned estate in the heart of the Kent countryside. For over 300 years the Dawes family have lovingly cared for the house and gardens and today they present one of the breathtaking spots in the south-east of England. Ten acres of classical gardens lie within an 800-acre farm with stunning views of the surrounding countryside.
The gardens are open to the public from April to September on Wednesdays to Sundays and Bank Holidays. Sitting at the top of the hill is the late-Victorian manor house with its impressive sweeping staircase and stunning reception rooms available for weddings and private events. The West Wing Tea Room is open for garden visitors and available for private hire too.
