Eat & Drink
Dining in
Northcote Manor's restaurant is strikingly muralled with a huge painting depicting its recent history. During the evening it’s aglow with candlelight. Look forward to a great selection of modern English dishes: pavé of Cornish crab, local Aylesbury duckling and fresh blueberry tartlet. There's a great selection of dessert wines, too.
Breakfast
Served until 10am. The range of cooked options includes a full English, kippers or smoked haddock .
Room service
Available morning and evening.
Activities
See & Do
Take to the hills on Exmoor and Dartmoor, or for more cultivated greenery spend a sunny afternoon admiring the RHS Rosemoor Gardens. Riding, fishing and golfing are easily arranged, while Exeter and Bideford are great places for a day out. Exeter has some lively bars and cafes around the old quayside, and a fine cathedral.
Spa
Reception can arrange for a local therapist to provide a range of in-room treatments.
