If you're lucky enough to be around during its very limited opening hours (see Web site), this is an historic marvel. Dating from 1380, with battlemented turrets, late Gothic windows and a Tudor gatehouse, the National Trust describes it as one of the most important examples of its kind.
Dating from the Iron Age, this hillfort with its striking ramparts is situated amongst a wealth of woodland. There is plenty of space for children to burn off their energy and for families to enjoy a picnic with a view.
A splendid manor house built in 1550 and restored by the current owner to its former glory. Plan your visit in advance as the house and gardens are only open to the public on Friday's from May until September as well as late Spring and August Bank Holidays.
Since being built in the 1870's this house has been owned by the Cave family. The house stands in parkland in the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and limited tours are now available. Use the contact details via the attached Website to book your place!
