Greenway

Greenway is nestled in a woodland garden which drifts down the hill to the banks of the River Dart. The garden is complete with stunning views, colourful borders and grand trees. Find out about the different areas to explore, and what the garden is like throughout the seasons.

The ground floor of the house is open daily, 1.30-4.30pm. Visits are limited to ensure social distancing and entry to the house is not guaranteed on the day you visit.

It's the place to see Agatha Christie and her family's extensive collections and enjoy the views over the River Dart.

Why not check out the walks through the countryside to Greenway? There are different walks to choose from, which you could combine to make into a circular walk, as well as trails to follow through the garden.

Escape this summer to Greenway and become a nature detective with our self-led trail. Try a spot of cloud watching, make a daisy chain or tickle your toes in grass in the walled garden. Look out for the seals from the Boathouse or find a secret place to spot the best birds and butterflies.

From rock pooling on beautiful beaches to exploring colourful gardens and crunching through fallen leaves, there's plenty to keep the family busy over autumn in Devon.

As we gradually and safely open more of the places we care for, there’ll be more opportunities to explore gardens and parklands near you. If you’re a member, you can access all these places free, together with most National Trust car parks. It’s so important for everyone to have fresh air, birdsong, big skies and open spaces to enjoy. Your membership will go towards looking after all of this for generations to come.

For 125 years, people like you have helped us protect some of the UK's best-loved places. Everyone needs nature, beauty and green spaces now more than ever. But our income has dropped sharply due to the coronavirus crisis, and our essential conservation work is at risk. Please give what you can to help us look after these places, so people and nature can thrive.
