6 Large Houses to Rent in Devon

Riverbank Inn is a thatched south Devon pub that has been sensitively converted into a unique country retreat which is particularly well suited for large groups. Sleeping up to 29 guests, it retains its welcoming air, along with a fully functioning bar, a large dance floor/socialising area, a plethora of traditional pub games and a nature-rich, two-acre garden on the banks of the river.

Style, charm and comfort in the most delightful location. This is a beautiful big house to rent for a special occasion, or retreat with friends and family.

Set among the trees with glimpses of the sea beyond, Devonhill in Salcombe feels like the most exciting treehouse. As the wooded garden slopes steeply below, the balconies are among the treetops. Large sliding doors sweep aside to capture the full effect where you can gather for a barbecue, hide in a hanging seat with a good book, or immerse yourself in the hot tub.

Barlemoor House is full of happy contradictions. A large manor, cosy as a cottage. A traditional country house, newly built with all mod cons. A moorland hideaway, close to the bustling North Devon coast.

Designed by an award-winning architect and commanding spectacular rural views, Hillview Retreat is a rather special place in Devon where you can gather with friends or family for an escape from everyday life.

Waterhouse Manor is a beautiful Georgian farmhouse in Devon, replete with original features. Step from the portico entrance into the flagstone hallway and you could be in a period drama. The past is evoked by ornate fireplaces, antique furniture and original sash windows with shutters. You’re brought up to date by the palette of Farrow and Ball colours, luxury brand accessories and high-quality TV and sound systems.
