Chatto's Tearoom

It is a lovely garden with lots of interesting and different plants. It's got a very relaxing and quiet feel here. The maintenance was lacking in some areas where there were quite a few weeds. Having said that, they were working hard to get back on top of it. The cafe has some amazing looking cakes with plenty of seating inside and out. All the staff were really friendly and welcoming.

Not my first visit but a beautiful place to visit. Good value and delicious cream tea with generous helpings. Extremely clean restaurant with polite, helpful, welcoming and friendly staff. Gift shop well stocked with pleasant items. Nice lady behind counter. Grounds quietly magnificent. One can be tranquil there.

Beautiful gardens, even on a cold spring day. Lots of benches to admire the views, which I much appreciated. The plant nursery is laid out so helpfully in sections of which plants will grow best in what area - sunny, shady, damp, etc. I wish everywhere did that, it's genius. We had lunch at the café and it was excellent - wholeheartedly recommend the cheese and bacon scones, the chicken and ham Caesar salad, and the sausage rolls! The Devon apple cake was divine too, and it was all very reasonably priced. If I was local I'd definitely make this a regular spot for a treat lunch out.

It's OK a little bit more of a garden plants, gift shop, & café center than a picturesque garden to visit, although don't let me put you off visiting. (perhaps the £12.50 entry might do that) I would say it's a nice place to visit if you have an hour or two to spare, and the tea shop has some lovely cake.

Late August quiet and still plenty to see. Interesting to view beds without the mass of green foliage and flowers. Evergreens, grasses and daisy family etc really stand out. Beautiful seed heads stand proud in the sunshine. Lots of plants to purchase, gift shop and cafe but remember to bring a credit card not cash.
