High in the Devon hills above the Taw/Torridge estuaries Webbery Manor Estate is an oasis of rural tranquillity. Steeped in history and with several noteworthy owners, Webbery Manor Estate was first mentioned in the Doomsday Book. It was given to Nicholas the Crossbowman, by a grateful William the Conqueror as a Saxon manor. In the 17th century it passed to the Lippincott family, one of whom set sail with the Mayflower flotilla to settle in America. In the 18th century, John Cutcliffe, the grandson of the owner, fought at the battle of Waterloo and was personally promoted by the Duke of Wellington.
Set in 45 acres of parkland and woods, with a variety of wild mushrooms and grazing sheep, deer, owls, ( tawny, barn and little ), pheasants, various, birds of prey and other wildlife are regularly sited. The delightful gardens have numerous specimen trees and banks of rhododendrons giving a spectacular spring display. Espaliered fruit trees and flowers are grown in 2 walled kitchens together with vegetables including Romanesco, Cavelo Nero, and Pink Fir Apple potatoes to name a few. A wide range of tomatoes are cultivated in 3 green houses and the produce from the gardens is complimentary subject to season and availability.
The lively market towns of Bideford and Appledore make an excellent day out, with weekly market and working harbour. With so many pubs and restaurants to choose from, in Instow, Bideford and Barnstaple, why not treat yourself to a meal out before heading home? Fishing and horse riding can be found within 5 miles.
