A family of four recently enjoyed a half-term break at St Anne's Manor in South Devon, a Victorian mansion that left them in awe. The five-bedroom property, set in three acres of immaculate gardens, offers a luxurious retreat for up to 12 guests and their dogs.
The house features a chic entrance hall, a grand kitchen with bespoke units, and a range of amenities including a baby grand piano, pool table, TV room, gym, hot tub, and games room. The outdoor kitchen on a floodlit deck, complete with BBQ, pizza oven, and fridges, is a highlight for entertaining.
The family appreciated the safety of the grounds, with formidable walls and electric gates, allowing children to roam freely. They spent time playing hide and seek in the gardens, relaxing in the hot tub, and exploring local attractions like Babbacombe Cliff Railway and nearby beaches.
The owners note that guests often return in different seasons to experience the property's year-round appeal, from summer outdoor dining to winter indoor entertainment.
