The grounds surrounding Sharpham House are officially taste-full now that they’ve been reworked as a tea-garden.
Thanks to £1,400 worth of funding from the Devon Gardens Trust and the hard work of Sharpham’s garden team, there are now fragrant herbs, plants and flowers infusing the air – and the teas too.
Sharpham House is a retreat centre run by charity The Sharpham Trust. More than 1000 retreatants visit each year, many of whom drink herbal teas on their stay.
Head Gardener Bryony Middleton presided over the £5,600 renovation of terraced areas behind Sharpham House, known as the Percy Cane gardens.
