We chat to Harry Hoblyn – the Head Gardener at Charleston. Nestled in the rolling landscape of East Sussex, Charleston was renowned as the home of artists Duncan Grant and Vanessa Bell who were at the centre of the Bloomsbury Group. Charleston is still is a place where people gather to engage in art and ideas and to enjoy a full programme of exhibitions, festivals and events.
