    I visited Wildside about 10 years ago, when it was still quite new.  Loved it then, and think I would love it even more now 👍🏻.  Back then it featured on a tv programme called the Landscape Man with Matthew Wilson - where he followed large scale/ambitious garden creations.  Wildside required a lot of earth moving with serious machinery I recall 😳

    Thanks to everyone who responded.  Need to plan a garden visiting trip to Devon next year.

    Just to say the aerial view is not Wildside - which is only just visible on the far right. The central nursery is Buckland Cottage Nursery and the one to the left is E B Champernowne. The local from bus Yelverton stops at the top of Buckland Monachorum and Wildside is a five-minute, level walk from there through a lane which is normally fairly quiet. I've been fortunate enough to witness the evolution from the first day; when it was just a field and the transformation is incredible. Well done to Keith and Ros for producing such a masterpiece.

    Thanks for the info about the walk from the bus stop, @3d.home :)
