Beautiful gardens, a pretty house, and a display of special costumes. Definitely one for all the family!

A real castle in the heart of Dartmoor. Actually built in more recent times (some 100 years back, by Sir Edwin Luytens), yet it looks ‘the real thing’. Step back in time and see how the Drew family, and their staff, lived in the early part of the 20th century.

This unique sixteen-sided house, described by Lucinda Lambton as having ‘a magical strangeness that one might dream of only as a child’, was built for two spinster cousins, Jane and Mary Parminter, on their return from a European grand tour in the late 18th century.

Nestling in a valley that reaches down to the sea, these thatched buildings date back more than 200 years. Visit the working forge and mill (check opening times), then enjoy a traditional cream tea in the Old Bakery tea-room.

Standing at the summit with wonderful views out to sea is the 5 metre high stone sculpture known as the Geoneedle, cleverly sculptured from all the rocks found along this unique coastline.

Discover Knightshayes, a gothic Victorian mansion set in the heart of the rolling mid Devon countryside. There’s plenty to see from looming gargoyles, imaginative carvings including the ‘seven deadly sins’ and the medieval great hall complete with minstrel’s gallery.

Tucked away in a deep wooded valley, Berry Pomeroy Castle is the perfect romantic ruin. Within the 15th-century defences of the Pomeroy family castle looms the dramatic ruined shell of its successor, the great Elizabethan mansion of the Seymours.

A classic Norman motte and bailey castle, founded soon after the Conquest to overawe the Saxon town. A later stone shell-keep crowns its steep mound, giving sweeping views across the town rooftops to the River Dart.

One of the most picturesquely-sited fortresses in England. For over 600 years Dartmouth Castle has guarded the narrow entrance to the Dart Estuary and the busy, vibrant port of Dartmouth.
