OUR FESTIVE STORY

A Magical Tale Awaiting To Unfold

Deep in the Devon countryside, up a winding driveway where the River Teign flows, stands a house in quiet grandeur.

 

It’s halls are decked in festive splendour and candlelight flickers against oak-panelled walls. Like an old friend, this country house invites you to stay a while, to wake when you wish, to sip something rich and warming by the fire, and to indulge in the simple pleasure of good food, fine wine, and even better company.

 

Here, on the edge of Dartmoor’s National Park, a Christmas filled with warmth, wonder, and tradition awaits.
