The High Weald AONB has many beautiful gardens.  Especially notable are those hidden down small country lanes such as Marle Place Gardens at Brenchley or hidden in a vast landscape of trees at the National Pinetum at Bedgebury that houses the most complete collection of temperate conifers on one site anywhere in the world.

The latter has a dwarf conifer garden which has rare and endangered species planted amongst some of the largest conifers in the UK.

Marle Place, near Tonbridge is a peaceful, privately owned Wealden garden with ten acres of formal planting and many more acres of woodland and orchard. Situated close to Scotney Castle, it has been called a plantman’s and artist's garden and features six different gardens with a surprise around every corner.

Scotney Castle has one of England’s most romantic gardens set in a beautiful wooded estate on the Kent & Sussex border with a ruined 14th-century Castle in a tranquil lakeside setting.

Finchcocks has thirteen acres of grounds including parkland to the front of the House. The garden to the rear is now fully restored, with mature shrub borders, wide lawns, an orchard with spring bulbs, and a beautiful walled garden, planted with a circle of whitebeams and dotted with pergolas for climbers. The grounds offer extensive views over the High Weald AONB landscape.

Sissinghurst Castle Gardens

One of the world's most celebrated gardens, the creation of Vita Sackville- West and her husband Sir Harold Nicolson. The garden is made in the ruins of a large Elizabethan house set in unspoilt Wealden countryside. The garden described by Harold Nicolson as 'a succession of privacies', reflects the combination of their owners' characters, he a classicist, who liked formality and clean lines, and Vita, a romantic who favoured profusion and surprise.

The garden can best be described as a sequence of ten separate gardens linked by vistas. These include the White garden, Rose garden, Lime walk, Cottage garden, Tower lawn & Yew walk, Herb garden, the Moat walk and the Nuttery and the Orchard.
