OUR STORY

B U T F I R S T, A B I T A B O U T U S Rockbeare Manor is a charming country house that was built in 1760 for Sir John Duntze, an Exeter woollen merchant and banker. Since it was last purchased, by William Nation in 1855, the house has always been a cherished family home, passing from generation to generation. Following on from a renowned reputation at our sister venues in Somerset, Coombe Lodge and Priston Mill - we are now delighted to bring our many years of experience, exceptional chefs and own style of personal service to Devon, where we promise to deliver equally outstanding and memorable occasions. Rockbeare Manor has now been given a new lease of life. It has been sensitively transformed into a wonderful contemporary venue, whilst still retaining the beauty of its past, creating without doubt a truly outstanding setting for a wedding.

Our Billiard Room has been designed especially with the groomsmen in mind, making it the ideal place to gather before the proceedings commence.
