A Kentish circular road trip from Wrotham (Part 1 of 2)

Part one of a Kent Road trip starting in Wrotham, a hidden gem nestled between the M20 & M26 motorways. Part of Our Kent Road trip series (https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwaSkfP77ubb4qfwOnceZcIEUTSCRJhij) exploring the county of Kent.

We start in the village of Wrotham, and discover a grape variety, a leftover from the Romans, that made it to the sunshine of California. We also have a recommendation for somewhere to stay, The Bull Hotel. We take a stroll around the village streets and maybe discover another pub or two.

Back into the car, and we take the scenic route to our next destination of Ightham, a beautiful Tudor village oozing charm. Stepping out, we discover why Ightam is home to a couple of celebs. That cheeky chappie dance judge, Len Goodman, and the crime author Martina Cole. Again we head to the village church, the last resting place of the Victoria Cross winner, William Sutton, who lies in an unmarked grave somewhere.

Continuing on our Kent road trip, we take an alternative route to our next destination of Ightham Mote, via Ivy Hatch.

A brief look at Ightham Mote (The full visit can be found here - https://youtu.be/jb7ejCPnn5A), before jumping into the car to make our way to the final destination in this part, Shipbourne.
