About Andrew's Corner

Andrews Corner is situated on the northern edge of Dartmoor at approximately one thousand feet above sea level. The garden, of about two thirds of an acre, faces south and provides a contrast between the rugged grandeur of Dartmoor and the verdant serenity of a cultivated garden. The garden contains a very wide range of unusual trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants for year round effect, including a snowdrop collection, alpines, rhododendrons, bulbs, and maples. Woodland plants, including erythroniums, arisaemas, ferns and many spring bulbs, are at their best in April and May – followed by the beautiful blue Meconopsis. In our designing, we have used the different levels to create smaller gardens, with their own particular features and micro climates, separated by trees and rhododendrons but still allowing glimpses of the stunning Taw valley and Dartmoor. This wildlife-friendly garden also includes a kitchen garden, two greenhouses. There are also plenty of wilder areas for grass snakes, slow worms, rabbits and over forty bird species which visit the garden. Quiz sheet, fairy doors and children’s playhouse make this a garden for all ages.
