A CHARITY day held in the grounds of historic Luscombe Castle was another big success.

Helped by sunny weather, the event saw a record number of visitors able to enjoy the gardens.

The day was organised jointly by the Friends of Dawlish Hospital, Dawlish Community Transport and Dawlish Gardens Trust.

‘The organising team would like to thank all those who made it happen by donating cakes, organising parking and generally helped the visitors have a good time.
