The Grange Retreat Overview
Tucked away in a private South Devon valley, The Grange offers an idyllic setting for retreat hosts seeking a peaceful, inspiring space to gather, reflect, and reconnect. This unique property encompasses five beautifully restored traditional stone cottages, sleeping up to 23 guests across 12 bedrooms and six bathrooms, set within 10 acres of landscaped gardens and natural beauty.
Whether you're hosting a wellness weekend, creative writing escape, corporate away-day, or yoga retreat, The Grange provides a calm and spacious environment, with a wealth of facilities designed to support both relaxation and connection.
Dedicated Retreat Space – The Folly
At the heart of the estate sits The Folly, a beautifully converted show barn that serves as an inspiring communal space for retreat activities. With its spacious interior and serene setting, it’s an ideal spot for yoga sessions, workshops, or group gatherings. The large covered terrace overlooking the lake and grounds provides a peaceful outdoor space for yoga practice in the fresh Devon air.
Inside, The Folly offers seating for up to 28 guests, a fully equipped kitchen, a small bar, trestle tables, and stylish chairs—perfect for shared meals or creative sessions. A projector and drop-down screen also make it a great space for presentations or evening film screenings.
Indoor Swimming Pool & Wellness Facilities
Within the charming Victorian walled garden lies a serene indoor swimming pool — the perfect place for restorative morning swims or post-session relaxation. The pool house also features a short tennis court, basketball hoop, and table tennis, offering options for light exercise or leisure between sessions.
Expansive Outdoor Space
The Grange offers a wealth of inspiring settings for outdoor sessions, walks, or quiet contemplation. Meandering paths, lawns, and a secret garden by the stream invite moments of peace. A tennis court, dining terraces, and a wood-fired pizza oven allow for casual social gatherings, while the larger patio offers space for outdoor workshops or communal dining.
Accommodation Across Five Cottages
Each of the five cottages is thoughtfully styled, blending comfort with character. Accommodation details include:
