Imagine exchanging vows in a setting so enchanting it feels like a scene from a Jane Austen novel. Nestled in the heart of East Devon, just a short drive from Exeter, the breathtaking Grade I listed Rockbeare Manor offers timeless elegance and charm. With its rich history, luxurious amenities, and romantic ambiance, it’s the ultimate venue for a winter wedding.
A HISTORICAL WEDDING VENUE IN THE DEVON COUNTRYSIDE
Dating back to 1760, Rockbeare Manor is a Regency country home steeped in history. The name "Rockbeare" translates to "Rook Wood," perfectly fitting the stately manor’s rural surroundings. From its grand architecture to its beautifully maintained interiors, the venue offers a sense of romance and sophistication that’s hard to find elsewhere, especially when it's blanketed in a picturesque layer of snow like I was lucky enough to witness last week!
