Rotary Gardens

Rotary Gardens is a tranquil oasis located in Pilton, Barnstaple in the county of Devon, UK

This remarkable garden was donated to the community by a prominent local businessman and former mayor of Barnstaple William Henry Brown in 1929

The gardens are laid out beautifully with winding pathways throughout maturing trees, specimen shrubs, flower beds and lawns

A central feature is a large pool containing exotic water lilies, which is overlooked by a bandstand

Situated on the fringes of the gardens is a traditional nursery which sells flowers and other decorative plants for sale, as an additional reminder of its rural setting

The gardens provide a peaceful, tranquil refuge for both locals and visitors alike

In addition to offering up a respite from everyday life, the grounds also host several annual events that bring together people of all ages to celebrate and reflect on the beauty around them

I love going to visit Rotary Gardens with my son, and although it's a fairly modest sized park it has lots of things for us to look at and do/climb. Lots of well kept plant areas to look at.It's generally very peaceful and quiet here, lovely on a sunny day. Lots of benches to sit on and have lunch and plenty of shaded areas under the trees.
