This Victorian walled kitchen garden has magnificent greenhouses where melons, apricots, figs, peaches and nectarines grow. Take a stroll on the terraced lawns for fantastic views out to Lundy Island, or take a longer walk through the rhododendrons and woodlands to Clovelly village. The herbaceous borders are ablaze with colour in midsummer. Open March to October.

A visit to these lovely old gardens coupled with a walk to Clovelly village is like taking a step back in time. Clovelly is unusual in being a privatley-owned village that has been preserved in a 19th Century style. It's a picturesque little place with a cobbled main street and whitewashed cottages. The traffic ban is very refreshing too.
