House of Marbles and Teign Valley Glass

An old pottery with the only group of original bottle kilns (classified as Ancient Monuments) left in the West Country. The pottery houses Teign Valley Glass and House of Marbles. Visitors may watch glass-blowing and learn of the history of the pottery, glass and the making of glass marbles, in the museums. We also have a fantastic restaurant and factory seconds shop where great bargains can be found.
