Shaldon Botanical Gardens

We had a lovely walk round here. Lovely area to get away from the hustle and bustle. Views are amazing

Really worth the effort to climb the hill up Horse Lane and walk up the steps to the upper path. Really well maintained gardens offering spectacular views out to the Teign estuary and a nice place to walk the dogs away from the main throng of people. Lots of historical interest with story boards up by the "castle". Best of all its completely free to enter.

Found this little gem on the route out of Teignmouth today and was very impressed with its peaceful, beautiful walk. The circular walk took us about half an hour to complete and we were treated to a look inside the renovation of the folly by resident gardener Gary. He told us lots about the history of the gardens and was very helpful. Entry was free and we were treated to amazing views

Free to visit. Hidden garden with fantastic view over Shaldon/Teignmouth. Steep access but worth getting to the top. Very peaceful place to chill and sit. Small cafe in the Castle building limited opening.

Great quiet place for a walk. The views out towards Teignmouth are stunning and the gardens are well kept and varied. There is a small castle at the top of the hill which is available for events. The walk is not for the feint hearted as there's a lot of steps and slopes. Well worth a visit.
