For over 35 years, these four acres of beautiful countryside have been a natural habitat for a diverse array of plants, birds, butterflies, and pond life—plus the occasional fairy, and a large community of gnomes and pixies.
Here, the pint-size woodland creatures can be seen going about their daily lives: playing chess, relaxing with a good book, getting married, and engaging in the space race.
There are more than 2,000 garden gnomes and pixie models at the Gnome Reserve in North Devon, making it the Guinness World Record holder for the largest gnome collection on the planet. The little creatures can be found hidden among the trees, relaxing by the pond and stream, or at home in the wildflower garden.
