Forde Abbey

Forde Abbey is the treasure on your doorstep. A magnificent house surrounded by 30 acres of award winning gardens, lakes and woodland.  Take a tour of this ancient and fascinating house that was once a monastery.  Walk in the gardens and  watch the Millenium Fountain showering water into the lake.  

Afterwards you can visit The Undercroft and enjoy locally sourced main meals, snacks and drinks.  A speciality is the Red Devon beef raised on the estate.

Great value season tickets are available enabling holders to visit regularly.
