The Lost Manor

A Hidden Sanctuary of Luxury and Mystery in Rural Devon

Beyond towering 12-foot stone walls, concealed from view and steeped in intrigue, lies The Lost Manor—a secluded haven where elegance meets escapism. Nestled in the heart of the Devon countryside, this extraordinary property is more than a place to stay; it’s an experience waiting to unfold. Designed for those who crave something truly special, The Lost Manor offers an unparalleled blend of refined luxury, exceptional amenities, and an enchanting sense of mystery.

From the moment you pass through its gates, The Lost Manor captivates. Immaculately landscaped grounds surround the property, with secret pathways and hidden nooks waiting to be discovered. The centrepiece is the breathtaking Mediterranean-style outdoor heated pool*, reminiscent of a sun-drenched Ibiza retreat, where mornings are for leisurely swims under blue skies and evenings are for moonlit dips by the glow of ambient lighting.

Inside, the grandeur continues. The manor boasts a full-size yoga and dance studio—an inspiring space perfect for mindful practice or vibrant gatherings. For those seeking active pursuits, the astro-turf tennis court invites friendly competition, while the indoor gym ensures your fitness routine continues uninterrupted. As the day draws to a close, unwind in the indulgent indoor sauna, or retreat to the snooker room, where a full-size table awaits for leisurely games over a glass of your favourite vintage.

The interiors of The Lost Manor are as impressive as its amenities. Spacious living areas blend timeless sophistication with modern comfort, creating a perfect backdrop for everything from relaxed family moments to celebratory feasts with friends. The fully equipped kitchen is a chef’s dream, inviting culinary adventures, while the ten luxurious bedrooms** (8 en-suite) promise restful nights and peaceful mornings. Each room is unique and has a character of its own, from the four poster grandeur of the Principal room to the Zen-like tranquility of the White Room with views of Dartmoor from your bedroom armchair.

Step outside the manor’s walls, and you’ll find yourself surrounded by the natural beauty of Devon’s rolling countryside. Explore charming local villages, meander along hidden trails, or venture further afield to discover Devon’s breathtaking coastline. Yet with so much to offer within the grounds of The Lost Manor, you might find it hard to leave.

By day, bask in the sunshine by the pool or take a quiet moment in the gardens, with only birdsong and gentle breezes as your soundtrack. By night, gather your loved ones under the stars, toast around the firepit, or savour intimate meals in the atmospheric dining spaces, where every moment feels like a celebration.

The Lost Manor is more than a destination—it’s a retreat into a world of possibility, where time slows down, luxury knows no bounds, and every experience feels unique. Whether you’re celebrating a milestone, reconnecting with family, or simply escaping the everyday, this hidden paradise promises memories that will last a lifetime.
