Powderham Castle
Powderham Castle is the impressive 600-year-old home of the Duke of Devon, situated on the River Exe estuary just outside Exeter. Every year between Easter and October, thousands of people pay the Courtenay family home a visit.
The estate offers a tour of the sumptuous castle interiors, beautiful formal gardens and the prized Woodland Garden, at its best in spring when it is carpeted with daffodils. Other highlights include a walk to the Belvedere Tower, which has fabulous views of the Exe estuary, a glimpse of the deer in the Deer Park, and the Secret Garden.
Children will love the House of Marbles at the Courtyard Tea Rooms. Home to the world's largest collection of marbles, it has marble runs, marble puzzles, toys and gifts to suit every pocket.
