There is something special about the last light of an autumn day in Devon. The skies seem bigger, the colours richer and, as the sun disappears towards the western horizon, the landscape settles into a slower rhythm.
From crisp coastal walks to spectacular sunsets over the Exe Estuary, autumn and early winter are beautiful times to escape to Lympstone Manor, to spend the afternoon outside, the evening around the table and the night somewhere rather special.
With our After The Sun Sets Autumn Stay Offer, enjoy an overnight stay from £299 per night for two, including breakfast, available until 21st December 2026.
Come for the last light. Stay for the table.
Wander
Pull on your boots and let the sea air work up an appetite.
Lympstone Manor sits in a beautiful corner of East Devon, overlooking the Exe Estuary and within easy reach of the Jurassic Coast and Devon countryside.
Follow a stretch of the South West Coast Path, discover the charming coastal towns of Exmouth, Budleigh Salterton and Sidmouth, or simply explore the estate’s beautiful grounds, vineyard and Sculpture Walk, watching the changing colours and soft afternoon light across the estuary.
As autumn gives way to winter, Devon takes on a different character. Crisp mornings, dramatic skies, quieter beaches and spectacular sunsets make getting outside all the more rewarding.
Spend the afternoon beside the water. Breathe in the sea air. Walk until the light begins to fade.
Then come inside…
Savour
Come hungry.
Return to the warmth of Lympstone Manor for fireside drinks, exceptional wines and the anticipation of dinner from Michael Caines’ Michelin-starred kitchen.
Here, the season continues on the plate. Michael’s signature Terroir Cuisine celebrates the exceptional seasonal produce of Devon and the South West, creating a dining experience that makes an evening at Lympstone Manor every bit as memorable as the landscape beyond it.
Take your time. Choose a bottle from our extensive wine cellar, discover award-winning English wines from our own Lympstone Manor Estate vineyard and enjoy the pleasure of an evening where there is nowhere else you need to be.
Alternatively, enjoy relaxed seasonal dining in our Pool House Restaurant & Bar, where comforting dishes and beautiful estuary views provide the perfect setting after a day exploring.
Fireside drinks. Exceptional wines. Wonderful food.
Because some dinners are worth travelling for.
Linger
Then stay the night.
When dinner is over, your room is only moments away.
Retreat to the comfort of your luxurious room or suite, or escape to one of our beautifully appointed woodland Shepherd Huts, nestled at the foot of the vineyard.
Sleep deeply after a day in the fresh Devon air and wake slowly to a peaceful morning. Enjoy a leisurely breakfast before perhaps taking a stroll through the estate, discovering our Sculpture Walk or simply relaxing and enjoying the views across the Exe Estuary.
Or don’t rush home.
Stay another night, linger over another meal and give yourself the luxury of a little more time.
With our outdoor heated swimming pool open throughout the year, the cooler months offer the opportunity to enjoy a refreshing swim surrounded by the natural beauty of the estate.
You don’t need a week away to feel as though you have truly escaped. Sometimes, just a couple of nights can feel a world away.
