Reminiscent of a medieval fortress, CASTLE DROGO was designed and built between 1910 and 1930 by renowned architect Sir Edwin Lutyens, for self-made millionaire Julius Drewe. Inside the castle there are artistic displays and outside you can see the stonemasons at work during renovations. You can stroll through the Lutyens designed formal garden or take a longer walk in the Teign Gorge and then refuel with tea and cake in the café. At the gift shop and plant centre there is a wide range of items available for every occasion.
