Hi BB, when and whereabouts in Devon?  The in-laws live in Devon so I may be able to get some info from them if there's enough time.

What about Buckland Monocorum (sp)? We went 3 years ago. It was summer & I don't know whether it's a winter garden but a visit to their site would tell you. We would def go again.

Otter Nurseries near Ottery St.Mary is a good day out. It's very large and has something for everybody.

The RHS Rosehill garden is in Devon. We went this summer and it's definitely worth a visit. It also has a garden centre. Hope you have a good time.

Only small, Jacks Patch in Teignmouth is worth a visit.
