Fowlescombe Farm is a quietly luxurious and restorative rural retreat of just ten beautifully designed suites, set close to wilds of Dartmoor in Devon.
The 450-acre regenerative farm on which we sit influences every element of time spent here. From dining that sees the journey of produce measured in footsteps from garden and farm to kitchen, to experiences that ease you into the rhythm of the farm and the wild beauty of Devon, we have built a rare place in which to reconnect with the land, the seasons and yourself.
As featured in Condé Nast Traveller, The Times, and National Geographic Traveller’s ’30 Best Hotels in the World’.
Suites
The hotel unfolds across ten guest suites, reimagining our timeworn stone barns and the original Victorian farmhouse into a rural retreat. Each is thoughtfully designed, layering local materials with an innate sense of place.
All stays are full board and include long breakfasts, lunch, 3pm cake in the Farmhouse, dinners that stretch into the evening, and a full calendar of experiences here on the farm.
Kitchen
In the Refectory, the day’s menu is dictated by the land, and the produce pulled from our fields, woodlands and gardens. Our Executive Chef, Elly Wentworth, and her team work in step with the farm and garden teams to deliver a true farm-to-fork experience, and our guests are always encouraged to join in.
Gather eggs from the coop at first light for breakfast. Crush basil between your fingertips and pair it with the ripest tomatoes for lunch. Understand first-hand what regenerative farming means to the taste and texture of the meat on your plate at dinner. Handpick botanicals for your evening gin. It’s all part of an experience based on connection, seasonality and truly special produce grown just steps away from where it is enjoyed.
THE LAND LEADS
Our regenerative farm isn’t a backdrop, it is the heart of Fowlescombe; a working landscape where farming, biodiversity and seasonality shape the daily rhythm. All we do and are begins with the land.
Here, the soil is nourished and protected, not stripped. Animals are rotated through diverse pastures, allowing the land to rest and regenerate between grazing. Layered, living landscapes see wildflowers and wildlife thrive. Everything we grow or raise gives back more than it takes.
The farm and its ethos shape every element of your time here: the food you eat, the spaces you sink into, the experiences you have, the feeling that you are reconnecting in the most human way. It is a return to the rhythms we were built for, letting the land lead and the seasons decide.
