Why visit Burrow Farm Gardens?

Burrow Farm Gardens grew from a disused Roman clay pit cleared by Mary Benger after the family moved to the farm in 1959. It now covers 13 acres, with mature trees, woodland and more open planting set against East Devon views. Azaleas and rhododendrons are a spring focus, the wildflower meadow follows in early summer, and the Grasses Garden carries interest later in the year. A nursery, tearoom and garden shop are on the same site.

What to see

  • Explore the Woodland Garden created from the farm's former Roman clay pit.
  • Time a visit for spring shrubs, the early-summer wildflower meadow or later grasses.
  • Browse the on-site nursery for perennials, shrubs, acers and shade plants.
