The Orangery is a Grade II listed four-bedroom holiday home located within the 100-acre Devon Sculpture Park Estate, surrounded by wilded spaces in the centre of Mamhead Woods with stunning views across the Devon coast and countryside. This offers the ideal spot to take time out, enjoy the magnificent sculptures and to relax.
Built in 1740, The Orangery showcases a domed entrance and views toward the Exe estuary and Lyme Bay. The wooded Haldon Hills sit behind the property and the sculpture filled park and pastures are below.
Take the time to walk around the park and check out the synergy of environment and art. Guests will most likely spot the nearby wildlife which regularly includes deer, hares, buzzards, foxes, badgers and rabbits. The area is also an ideal retreat for stargazing.
Inside, The Orangery includes an open plan kitchen that leads out to the courtyard, with all the necessary cooking accessories. With a number of spaces to eat and enjoy, you don’t need to go out while staying here unless you want to.
The Robert Adam Orangery has the space to accommodate up to 8 guests in luxury, with four bedrooms (three with en-suite facilities), the one with the super kingsize bed has a large soaker bath. With a living room, dining room and stunning terraces, you can find plenty of places to relax or spend time together. The property hosts an extensive collection of unique art pieces. From sculptures to paintings and mixed media, there is fascinating artwork throughout the house and gardens.
The property enjoys an ideal position for touring South Devon. There is a lovely beach at Dawlish Warren less than 5 miles away, as well as the nearby beaches of Teignmouth, Exmouth and Torbay. The wild bird sanctuary and reserve at Dawlish Warren is nearby, as is rugged Dartmoor, a haven for wildlife, wild ponies and more strenuous walks. The cathedral city of Exeter is a short easy drive and offers a range of popular shops and boutiques, restaurants, theatre, cinemas and other leisure facilities. The 3,500 acre Haldon Hills Forest Park is just 5 minutes’ drive away and is criss-crossed with walking and cycling trails for all abilities. The property is also within easy reach of Teignmouth Golf Course and various cycling trails. You’ll struggle to fit everything into one visit to The Orangery and you will certainly want to stay time and time again. This property is on the same site as The Lakehouse (UK44428).
