Speldhurst is in the High Weald, an area designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty for its medieval landscape of rolling hills, small, irregular fields, abundant woods and hedges, scattered farmsteads and sunken lanes.

If you're looking for places to visit, why not try some of the 'The Seven Wonders of the Weald' which include Bewl Water, Lamberhurst Vineyard and Sissinghurst Castle Garden.  In fact the area's woodland conceals over 30 small manor houses, castles and beautiful parks and gardens, 9 of which are managed by the National Trust.

Many of the nearby towns and villages also offer an interesting and pleasant alternative to shopping in Tunbridge Wells town centre. Cranbrook and Goudhurst are particularly worth a visit with their good selection of small specialist shops, antique shops and eateries - good places to seek out local specialities or a special reminder of the area to take home.
