You're welcome to enjoy picnics in the garden. There are benches dotted around, with views over the River Dart.

Shopping at Greenway

National Trust shop

The gift shop at Greenway is the perfect place to pick up a treat for yourself or a loved one. Think sustainable gifts, nature-inspired household items, clothing and scented ranges, with designs that have been inspired by National Trust places.

 

Rooted in nature 

As nature begins to bloom, the greyness of winter makes way to fresh greenery and bursts of colour from blossoming flowers. The new Spring range focuses on soft, fresh colours with hues of blues and greens. Welcome in the season with the new Fern and Cow Parsley print, inspired by the fern collection at Sizergh Castle, or try the sparkling scent of the Fresh Linen & Neroli fragrance range.

 

Tasty treats

The spring food range continues to offer firm favourites, but also new flavours reflecting the brightness of the season. Crisp, tart lift of gooseberries and the gentle floral sweetness of elderflower in the new Gooseberry & Elderflower jam, Elderflower liqueur or Gooseberry & Coriander chutney.

The range on sale in the shop are all UK-made and completely moreish, with gluten free biscuits, vegan chocolate and fudge too. So if you’re looking for food and drink gifts, or just something delicious for your own table, there'll be something to tempt your taste buds.

 

Local producers

We have a dedicated local range featuring some of South Devon’s best artisan producers, from beautiful jewellery and scented soaps, locally made cider and gin and greetings cards. 

 

Greenway stories

Pick up a memento of your visit from the Greenway souvenir range. There are magnets and notebooks, pin badges and bags celebrating the queen of crime, Agatha Christie and the house she loved. Plus a wide range of Agatha Christie books, including Dead Man's Folly, which was inspired by the boathouse here at Greenway, and for younger readers, the recently launched Little Miss Marple and Mr Poirot, a new collobration with Adam Hargreaves.

The second-hand bookshop

The stable at Greenway is home to a second-hand bookshop, filled with tomes donated by visitors to Greenway. With classic novels, children's books and non-fiction titles galore, there's sure to be something that takes your fancy.  While you're here, head to the children's corner, which often hosts fun stories and games.  

 

Have you got any pre-loved books you can donate?

To keep the shelves fully stocked we're always needing good quality fiction and childrens books. If you have some you'd like to donate, we'd love to have them. Please speak to a member of the team in Visitor Welcome during your visit, let us know via email greenway@nationaltrust.org.uk or by calling 01803 843235. Every penny raised through second-hand book sales goes to the conservation of this special place.
