Overbeck's

This beautiful garden offers spectacular views over the Salcombe estuary and surrounding coast. The 2.75-hectare (7-acre) garden has an intimate and informal atmosphere and is filled with rare and exotic plants, flourishing due to the sheltered micro-climate. The inventor Otto Overbeck lived here until 1937 and the house contains his collections of curios, natural history and nautical artefacts, as well as his most peculiar invention, the 'Rejuvenator'.WC not available when museum is closed.
