Exmoor on our doorstep
Local area
The setting is as much a part of Great Wadham as the estate itself. North Devon is a place where space, stillness and a strong sense of place come naturally, creating the perfect backdrop for long weekends, family gatherings and memorable occasions.
The main attraction
A landscape with presence
The land surrounding Great Wadham has raw character. Open moorland gives way to ancient woodland, steep-sided valleys and fast-flowing rivers, while the coastline rises into some of the country's highest sea cliffs. The landscape is constantly changing with the weather and seasons. And from up here, you have an uninterrupted view of it all.
Away from it all
Rare privacy
True privacy is increasingly scarce. But here, it’s built into the setting. With no CCTV across our 160-acre estate, Great Wadham offers complete seclusion, with room to wander, gather and celebrate without oversight or interruption.
Just round the corner
Exmoor National Park
Renowned for herds of free-roaming Exmoor ponies and a thriving population of iconic red deer, Exmoor National Park is more quietly appreciated for its walking paths, traditional inns and peaceful atmosphere – even in midsummer, there’s no sense of overcrowding. A designated Dark Sky Reserve, clear nights here unveil the brilliance of the cosmos.
Shaped over centuries
Local towns and beaches
Historic North Devon market towns like South Molton and Dulverton are celebrated for their traditional markets, boutique shops, and authenticity. A scenic drive from the estate also reveals the region's spectacular coastline, from the rugged, cliff-backed coves of Woody Bay to the expansive golden sands of Saunton and Woolacombe.
