Southcombe Barn gardens comprises 5 acres of vibrant wildflower meadows and flowering trees with mown grass paths running alongside a gently babbling stream. There is a new apothecary garden on the sheltered hillside with medicinal, dye, culinary, tea plants and herbs and now buzzing with new wildlife. An exciting assortment of fresh apothecary herbal teas will be on offer.

The natural look is achieved by allowing the most colourful of the Devon woodland and hedgerow flowers to colonise as much as they like. They alone would look lovely but the intense colour of it all is made greater still with flowers like the blue camassia quamash which take over from the bluebells and insanely vibrant deciduous azaleas so the pink and yellow of the campion, pink purslane and buttercup really hum.
