. From Junction 30 on M5, take the A3052 as far as Newton Poppleford, where you turn right onto the B3178. One mile (1.6km) beyond Colaton Raleigh, the Botanical Gardens are on your right, just past the BictonCollege entrance.
Open all year
10am-6pm summer & 10am - 5pm winter
Shorter opening hours may apply during the Christmas/New Year period, and we are closed Christmas Day & Boxing Day
Summary: Something for all generations of the family.
