The Devonshire

The villa

The Devonshire is a grand and characterful manor set in the heart of rural Devon, offering refined comfort and extensive amenities for up to 18 guests. Set within three acres of landscaped gardens, this elegant property combines traditional architectural charm with luxury touches across its 6,900 square feet of living space. With six spacious bedrooms, four of them en-suite, and a flexible layout perfect for multigenerational stays, it’s ideal for family reunions, milestone celebrations, or corporate retreats.

Outdoors, guests can enjoy a heated swimming pool (April - October), hot tub, sauna, and private all-weather tennis court, alongside alfresco dining for 20. Inside, a bespoke farmhouse kitchen, formal dining room, and generous reception spaces are matched by a cinema room, pool table, bar, and gym. The Devonshire balances sociable shared areas with quieter spots, like the reading nooks and the heated gazebo with TV, for winding down.

Whether you’re starting the day with breakfast on the terrace or winding down in the hot tub beneath the stars, The Devonshire offers a superb base to enjoy Devon’s countryside in total comfort and privacy.

Set just outside the sought-after village of Morchard Bishop, The Devonshire enjoys a wonderfully peaceful setting in the heart of Mid Devon. Surrounded by rolling countryside and approached via a long, private driveway, the property offers a true sense of seclusion while remaining conveniently connected. The local village, just 4.5km away, provides a pub, village shop, and a warm community feel, while the market town of Crediton, 13km from the house, offers a wider range of restaurants, supermarkets, and services.

Despite its rural setting, The Devonshire is well placed for exploring Devon’s finest attractions. The dramatic wilds of Dartmoor and Exmoor are both within easy reach, as are the north and south Devon coastlines, offering a mix of sandy beaches, clifftop walks, and waterside towns. Exeter is just 14 miles away, with direct trains to London and a vibrant cultural and dining scene.

Whether you’re after long country walks, day trips to RHS Rosemoor or the Tiverton Canal, or simply unwinding in privacy with countryside views, The Devonshire offers a location that balances ease and escape. With golf courses, historic villages, and outdoor adventure all nearby, it’s perfectly positioned for a refined yet relaxed Devon getaway.
