Westerham, Emmetts and Chartwell Loop

Moderate 8.5 miles/13.7km, 1247ft/380m circular

Say farewell to 2025 with this New Year's Eve loop around Westerham taking in the two beautiful National Trust properties at Emmetts Garden and Chartwell.
Starting from the main Westerham public car park, we head out across Hosey Common, up Toy's Hill to Emmett's Garden and a mid-morning coffee stop. After taking the views of the gardens and the surrounding countryside, we head back across the valley to Winston Churchill's home at Chartwell for our lunch stop (and more coffee!). Finally we head back to Westerham with the chance for an early New Year's celebratory drink.

Dogs only permitted if kept on a short lead at all times.

Please note that there is a £2 payment required for non-Ramblers members to help cover our Meetup costs. Please help the walk leader by bringing the exact change.

Members of the Ramblers Association are welcome on any of our walks, but we would still encourage you to RSVP on Meetup. This will give our volunteer walk leaders an idea of how many are attending, and also to keep the numbers manageable. If, on the day of the walk, you are still on the waiting list and a Ramblers member, you can attend just let the walk leader know you are coming by adding a comment 'Coming as a Rambler'. You will find the start location via our website Our Walks (westkentwalkinggroup.org.uk).
