Welcome to Sowton Barton

Sowton Barton is a historic estate located in the heart of Devon, England. The estate is known for its stunning architecture, beautiful gardens, and rich history. The estate was originally built in the 16th century and has been home to many notable families throughout its history. Today, Sowton Barton is a popular tourist destination and is open to the public for tours and events.

The estate is surrounded by beautiful gardens and parkland, which are perfect for a leisurely stroll or picnic. The gardens are home to a variety of rare and exotic plants, as well as a number of historic features such as a walled garden and a Victorian greenhouse. Visitors can also explore the estate's many walking trails, which offer stunning views of the surrounding countryside.

Sowton Barton is also home to a number of historic buildings, including a 16th-century manor house and a 17th-century stable block. The manor house is a beautiful example of Tudor architecture, with its distinctive half-timbered façade and ornate carvings. The stable block, which was once home to the estate's horses and carriages, has been converted into a number of luxury holiday cottages, which are available for rent throughout the year.
