The gardens at Torre Abbey Historic House will be holding free open days on Tuesdays leading up to Christmas.

If you have not visited the Abbey’s gardens, this is the perfect opportunity to visit this beautiful setting. Explore a tropical jungle and arid desert in the extraordinary glasshouses. Discover 800 year old ruins of a medieval Abbey set in a tranquil landscape and stroll through glorious gardens with exotic botanic specimens.

After your stroll, why not pop into the shabby chic tearoom for a cream tea or light lunch?

The open days are taking place from 10am to 4pm on the following dates:

- Tuesday 1 December
- Tuesday 8 December
- Tuesday 15 December
