About the garden

Prepare to fall in love with this Grade I listed picturesque paradise in Devon. Among the last that English landscape architect Humphry Repton designed, 200 years ago, the stunning gardens at Hotel Endsleigh are like something out of a fairytale and one of the most romantic in the country.

Across the 108-acre site are soothing streams, gushing waterfalls, sweeping lawns, beautiful rockery, roaming wildlife and peaceful woodland. Watch the 100-metre herbaceous border burst into life in spring, wander through the thriving Rose walk during summer and witness Acers turn the wooded dell into a sea of autumn colour. You can also see champion trees within the arboretum and fascinating nearby ruins.

During your visit, why not arrange a Falconry Session, have fun with the kids on the exciting treetop obstacle course or have a family game of table tennis? Non-residents can indulge in a delicious cream tea in the house-turned-hotel or enjoy an afternoon tea picnic in the gardens.

Wonderful afternoon tea with friends. They catered for my gluten free diet superbly and couldn't say anything bad about their service. So helpful and friendly. Beautiful building too!

A peaceful hotel set away in a beautiful Devon valley. A lovely old building with great open fire places. This is a place to go for a quiet retreat in the countryside, well away from city life. You can go for long walks in the beautiful grounds. Staff were exemplary. Polite, attentive and friendly. Food was exceptional. We enjoyed the spring menu which was fresh and well balanced. The wine menu was excellent with a wide selection of old and new world wines - although the markup on some wines was probably a bit on the high side. This is not somewhere to go for an action packed holiday, or for lots of activities. There are no spa or gym facilities. But if you want a relaxing break away in beautiful surroundings then we could not recommend this venue more highly.

This is the most beautiful hotel in stunning location. Food was amazing. Staff were so welcoming & couldn't do enough. The rooms are really nice, it's an old building so the rooms are rustic not modern but so very charming. Can't wait to return.

We popped in Hotel Endsleigh for lunch on the spur of the moment my work college had eaten there before. Firstly I gave 4 stars not 5 overall because I haven't stayed there ..however this lunch experience was lovely the servers were very attentive, we only had a main Cod & Chips and it was delicious, the triple cooked beef dripping chips we're spot and the fish was excellent, beautiful white cod and the batter was fantastic...the hotel is very period and beautiful, and outside the drive in is about 2/3 of a mile and it is stunning, amazing place for a wedding, If your in the area and want a treat go to Hotel Endsleigh.
