Out and About in the Area

Tidwell Manor has approximately two acres of garden, with access to footpaths that lead to the 30,000 acres of open land. There are seven areas of common land, Pebblebed Heaths, 17 burial mounds and a RSPB Nature Reserve to explore.

This corner of East Devon is steeped in history with its connections with Sir Walter Raleigh, his birthplace at East Budleigh; Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Ottery St Mary; Topsham with its Dutch architectural influence and the renowned Sidmouth International Folk Festival. For those who enjoy the outdoor life Tidwell Manor is well positioned for almost anything you wish to do.

If the hustle and bustle of city life is what attracts you, there is the Cathedral City of Exeter about 10 miles distant, whereas Budleigh Salterton, Exmouth and Sidmouth remain an unspoilt coastal town and firm favourite for many.

With its rolling landscape the scenery of the area is outstanding, yet a trip to the Lost Gardens of Heligan or the Eden Project in Cornwall are both easily accessible as is Dartmoor and the World Heritage Jurassic Coast from Exmouth towards Lyme Regis in Dorset.

The staff at Tidwell Manor would be more than happy to help you organise an activity event, such as walking tours, Fishing trips, rounds of golf etc. Simply inform us of your chosen activity.
