Fall for this historic and dreamily romantic Devon wedding venue
Nestled on the north-western fringes of Dartmoor, where wild, tor-dotted heights give way to rolling meadows, Lewtrenchard Manor offers a sense of secluded escape paired with breathtaking natural beauty. The Grade II-listed manor looks out across manicured gardens and miles of unspoilt countryside, creating a setting that feels both timeless and utterly tranquil.

Steeped in more than 900 years of history – with origins recorded in the Domesday Book – the Jacobean manor is rich in character and atmosphere. Inside, ornate ceilings, stained-glass windows and wood-panelled rooms sit alongside a wealth of carefully preserved period features, each space telling its own story.

Reopened in 2025 following an extensive refurbishment, the hotel has been thoughtfully reimagined as an idyllic country house retreat, where historic grandeur meets contemporary comfort.

A truly romantic setting for a wedding, Lewtrenchard Manor lends itself to celebrations of every scale – from intimate elopements to exclusive-use gatherings. Picture champagne receptions in the bloom-filled gardens, followed by exquisite dining beneath glittering chandeliers in the opulent restaurant. As evening falls, continue the celebrations with nightcaps in the bar before retreating to the bridal suite for a stay to remember in this breathtakingly romantic Devon idyll.
