Carreg Dhu Gardens, Isle of Scilly

Whilst visiting the Scilly isles I absolutely loved seeing this subtropical community garden Carreg Dhu . It is totally free to visit and ran entirely by local volunteers. The sheltered garden covers an area of 1.5 acres and occupies the site of an old quarry. It was first started by Richard and June Lethbridge in 1986.

I also really enjoyed the Longstone Lodge cafe right next door where I had a super delicious iced coffee.
