Description:
Ringmore House has been standing near the waters of the River Teign estuary since 1770, and is believed to date from 1680. The house is Grade II listed, and the current owners, Robert and Helen Scull have restored the house and recovered many original features, fireplaces in the bedrooms that have been unseen for over 50 years, internal shutters on the windows, fire cupboards and alcoves. The bedrooms and bathrooms are now beautifully decorated and furnished, with River estuary views from both the double rooms.
During the season, local fishermen shoot their seine nets to catch Salmon on the beach. Boat auctions are held twice a year on the beach, bringing in visitors from all over the West Country, and the annual water carnival and Regatta provide entertainment during the summer months.
Ringmore house has two double bedrooms and a twin bedded room, all bathrooms are private, and big fluffy robes are provided for each guest. Helen brings a tray of tea to your bedroom in the morning prior to breakfast.
Breakfast at Ringmore House is Aga cooked, an array of home made bread and jams awaits you each morning, in addition to fruit compotes, Croissants and cereals. Guests may also choose from English Breakfast, Kippers, Smoked Haddock, Kedgeree, Scotch pancakes to name a few.
The eggs are from our own hens in the garden, and where possible all our food is West Country produced and organic. Breakfast is served in the main house conservatory overlooking the gardens. Dinner is available on some nights and guests enjoy candlelit home made food with the best ingredients. Home made cakes and cream tea are always ready at tea time and can be served up to 6pm.
Ringmore House offers a parking space always available for one car, and there is a shopping service if you would like provisions left ready for your arrival. We do not permit any smoking in the cottage, and we cannot allow any pets on the premises.
We are delighted to let our guests explore the garden, the lower water garden environment, with its collection of Arum and day lilies, and stunning Astilbe, and the upper part with its giant Gunnera, and hidden ancient Lime Kiln in the trees, and a short stroll out of the gate to the waters edge to admire the far reaching views of the estuary and Dartmoor in the distance.
