We’re entering our fourth year of planting now

Now in our fourth year, the Apothecary Garden at Old Exeter Inn is truly coming into its own. Our wonderful gardener, Annie, has planted hundreds of different varieties, and she’s often out there tending to them and happy to chat. It’s become a beautiful spot to sit and enjoy – do come and explore.

To find out more about how Annie has created the garden at the Old Exeter Inn and listen to her BBC Radio interview, click here!
