Quebec House in Westerham is the childhood home of General James Wolfe, whose victory at the Battle of Quebec in 1759 won Britain the territories of New France that became Canada. The brick town house is presented as it looked in the 1730s when the Wolfes lived here, with portraits, Wolfe's military canteen and the banyan he wore to dine with his men, while the Coach House behind holds a second-hand bookshop and an upstairs exhibition on the Westerham foundlings, created with the charity Coram. The compact garden mixes roses, wisteria and a kitchen plot revived from Mrs Wolfe's recipe book, and dogs on a short lead are welcome there, with assistance dogs only inside the house and Coach House. A 2-mile route to Chartwell starts by the Churchill statue on the green and takes about an hour. Reviewers single out the volunteers stationed in every room, whose stories about Wolfe make the visit. Tips from visitors: book the 45-minute guided tour, and use the town's Darent pay-and-display car park a couple of minutes away on foot; the exhibition is reached by stairs only.
