Hayne Old Manor
Moretonhampstead, Newton Abbot, Devon, TQ13 8SB
The house proudly stands in an elevated position with spectacular unimpeded views over its beautiful gardens and grounds, ornamental lake, Dartmoor’s rolling countryside; and in the distance to the north, the picturesque village of Moretonhampstead and its pretty church. The house is hidden until its handsome cream stucco façade is revealed as one approaches via the granite walled drive that meanders through its own parkland displaying the lake and the grounds beyond.
Hayne Old Manor is a remarkable Grade II listed Georgian country house in a truly rural setting within its own extensive acreage
Boasting large floor to ceiling windows with thin sash bars and original shutters, the house even on a dull day is bathed in light. Along with a number of fine period features, including intricate cornicing, panelled doorways, traditional radiators and handsome chimneypieces, this wonderful property has a rare elegance and has been beautifully maintained to reflect its abundance character. In keeping with its era, all the rooms benefit from high ceilings and lovely proportions making it perfect for entertaining. Combined with a large kitchen that opens via double doors to the morning room and conveniently adjacent to the sitting room, conservatory and pantry, Hayne Old Manor is also a charming family home. The kitchen has easy access to the terrace and designed by Mark Wilkinson. One of the particular features of the house is the easy flow of rooms from the wide hallway which is lit by a domed sky lantern. The hall is entered via a half glazed door from a glassed portico with white columns and creates a vista straight through the house to glazed doors surmounted by a semi-circular fanlight on the south side.

The main house is approached via a long winding drive that ascends through the park to the front of the house. A back drive provides access to the cottages and stable courtyard. The house is perfectly elevated to survey its exquisite gardens which have been beautifully maintained and designed around the house, mainly to the west side, where they cascade down a sloping grass bank with a series of terraced lawns, herbaceous borders and mature trees to an ornamental lake. Both planting and landscaping have been carefully considered to enhance the garden’s views and how they are perceived from its further grounds and drive. A number of flower beds stocked with a wide variety of shrubs and perennials provide colour and interest throughout the year. Gravel and grass paths provide tours through these captivating gardens and culminate at the lake and its planted banks, domed pergola and granite bridge. The grounds are awash with Devon wildlife but the lake is a particular haven for wildfowl including resident swans.
Gardens & Grounds
A west facing veranda, accessed via the dining room and drawing room, and a south facing stone balustraded terrace, accessed via the morning room and conservatory, surround the house providing excellent alfresco entertaining. Both areas have stunning views where the main lawn flanked by a stone wall and landscaped borders create a vista to the lake and beyond. Stone balustraded stairs lead from the south terrace to the attractive Italian garden which has a fountain as its center and is adjacent to a walled garden and stable yard. The walled garden includes a vegetable area with box hedged borders and orchard. A series of traditional Victorian greenhouses are adjoined to the outside of the walled garden, on the south facing side, which gets the sun all day. A modern agricultural building, currently used as garaging and for garden machinery, lies beyond the walled garden. Water and lights are connected. Beyond the gardens are mature parkland, paddocks and woodland. Within one of the large fields is a stone Dutch barn.
Outbuildings & Ancillary Accommodation
The paved stable courtyard includes a Coach House with four traditional loose boxes with a 2 bedroom staff/groom’s flat above, now in need of modernisation with potential to create a third bedroom. It offers an ideal opportunity to create a home office, subject to the usual planning consents. Within the yard there is a useful triple bay Garage.
The Cottage
Additional ancillary accommodation off the courtyard The Cottage which comprises two bedrooms, kitchen, sitting room and two bathrooms and includes its own entrance and private garden. For information on room sizes and layout, please consult the floorplans.
