Corffe really does provide the peace of the countryside with a wide variety of amenities on your doorstep.

Corffe House

Impressive yet welcoming, Corffe is an 18th century Grade II listed Georgian country house and was the rectory to the thirteenth century Church of St Peter from 1801 to 1948. Today the property has been transformed from a family residence into a fabulous holiday house. 

When you stay at Corffe you could be forgiven for thinking you are staring in your own episode of Downton Abbey with its many generous sized rooms and sweeping staircase. It is this combined with the modern-day touches such as the cinema room, shared indoor heated pool and tennis court not to mention uninterrupted views over the beautiful Devon countryside that make for an unforgettable stay.

Corffe House is ideal for family gatherings and group celebrations due to its idyllic location and first class facilities.
