Garden House

A classic English garden on the edge of Dartmoor

Garden House

At the bewitching Garden House swathes of flowers and shrubs fill 10 acres of borders, walled enclaves, terraces and meadows.

The garden is set around an early-19th century vicarage and features a ruined medieval tower and thatched barn. Thanks to a lake, fragrance-filled glades and a maze of hidden paths, exploring here feels like wandering around a friend’s utterly delightful country estate.

There’s also a top-notch cafe, excelling at imaginative takes on fresh, local, seasonal ingredients.
