Sharpham House facilities

Our retreats in a Georgian house on a bend in the River Dart allow people to stay full-board amid history, art and stunning nature. This Palladian villa has a mixture of rooms: from the very grand to comfy singles. Our room charges reflect the different types of rooms.

Because Sharpham House is a Grade I-listed mansion (with limits to the changes we are allowed to make to the building), few bedrooms come with an en-suite bathroom and toilet. There are shared bathrooms on every floor.
