Cadhay

Recommended by Visit England Logo
Overview
Cadhay is a charming Tudor mansion which has been beautifully restored over the last ten or so years, by the current owner, Rupert Thistlethwayte. At its centre is the Court of the Sovereigns, overlooked by four carved images of the Tudor monarchs. Upstairs is the Long Gallery, added during the reign of Elizabeth I, and now serving as a family museum. The gardens are a mix of formal and informal, and include a lime tree avenue and medieval fish ponds. Opening times are limited as the house is also self-catering accommodation. The house can be seen by guided tour only.

About the area
Devon sums up all that is best about the British landscape, with its magnificent coastlines, two historic cities, the world-famous Dartmoor National Park and south Devon’s glorious English Riviera. A fashionable and much-loved holiday destination, hiking and cycling in the National Parks is extremely popular among visitors, with a great choice of off-road routes.
