Charleston Farm House

Last bank holiday Monday I went down to East Sussex and discovered this wonderful house - thought you might enjoy a poke around the house and garden also.

    I've always wanted to go to South Carolina, but have never been. Everything looks so beautiful there, rich colors, the history, you're making me want to fly there now!

    That's funny, Charleston is my great grandparents house! I've been meaning to visit again for ages, and your post has given me a good reminder. Thanks!

    ive been there my self its a really loverly place, and its stunning in summer/autumn. really recommend it to anyone who loves art and the history of art. im an art student myself, i went there with no expectations to be 'wowd' however i surprisingly learnt a lot, and its obvious the people working there really enjoy telling the stories and know what they're talking about.
