Shute Barton (NT)
Overview
Shute Barton is a medieval house with royal connections. A building of battlements and towers set in the rolling east Devon countryside, this historic house is a holiday let, and is available to hire all year round, but it is also open to the public four times a year for guided tours. The great kitchen contains what is believed to be the largest fireplace in England, and there is also an attic room with a medieval roof structure. It is open to the public for guided tours on 20 & 21 September and 18 & 19 October. Tours do not require booking.
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.
