Powderham Castle Resin Pathway Resurfacing

iDream Solutions recently had the opportunity to help transform one of Devon’s most iconic castles with our resin bound surfacing. Powderham Castle. The fortified manor house just outside of Exeter has played host to many events over the years including, weddings, food fayres, Christmas light shows and Radio One’s Big Weekend. Powderham Castle is still owned and run by the Courtenay family after it was first built by Sir Philip Courtenay in 1390.


It was an honour to help maintain and preserve the iconic castle in Devon. The castle needed new pathways installed around their new toilet blocks and outhouses placed around the estate for visitors to use. We worked closely with the family to ensure the project was delivered on time and to a high standard. Due to the wide range of events that take place at the castle all year round we needed to provide a low-maintenance, safe and durable surface. The new barley butter blended resin bound pathways ties in with the countryside and the traditional appearance the castle and grounds are renowned for.

Benefits Of Installing Resin Bound Surfacing At Devon’s Iconic Castle

The new resin bound pathways around the grounds and buildings were selected for this project over our range of other surfacing solutions, thanks to the barley butter blended resin’s attractive appeal and range of beneficial properties including:


10-year insurance guarantee – All of our surfacing solutions come with a ten-year guarantee, so Powderham Castle can enjoy the benefits of their brand new pathways for many years to come.


  • Hard-wearing and durable – As Powderham welcomes 1000s of visitors through their gates every year, the materials used need to be strong and long-lasting.
  • Visually attractive – We provided the castle with a bespoke blend of gravel stones and colouring to create a natural style path that blends perfectly with the surrounding area and the castle’s colour scheme.
  • Low-maintenance – unlike other surfaces, resin does not require regular maintenance, cracks, holes or loose stones should not appear or cause issues.
  • UV and stain-resistant – The high-quality resin solution has harsh chemical and UV-resistant properties and should not fade or stain.
  • Slip-resistant – Thanks to the permeable surface of the new resin pathways water should not collect on the paths, reducing the risk of mould and algae growth and ice. Making it the perfect surface for people of any age and ability all year round.
