Docton Mill Gardens and Tea Rooms

 Docton Mill Gardens and Tea Rooms are reached by a series of narrow lanes, it's easy to find with a Sat Nav, unsure how we'd have found it otherwise. It's a lovely haven once you arrive though, with woodlands, streams and deep ponds. There's a great variety of different habitats and features within in the garden. The map of the garden is a good place to start, although we wandered around without really looking at the map.

I liked the water running through the garden and the intriguing bridges over the water

This was one of the bridges

There were also rather lovely places to sit in the garden

I took the same photo nearer than the previous one

Walking alongside the water was very pleasant

The tea room was lovely, and the plant sales were good, I bought a Pelargonium which is flowering wonderfully now. Docton Mill is a lovely Devon garden experience.
