Dog-friendly Lympstone Manor is a luxury country house Hotel, Restaurant and Vineyard in Devon overlooking the Exe estuary and the Jurassic coast. A member of Relais & Chateau with a Michelin starred restaurant, the hotel is the creation of Michael Caines MBE, one of the best known and acclaimed chefs in the UK, who says, "Lympstone Manor is the realisation of a dream, my vision of country house hospitality for the 21st century."

You and your dog will feel totally pampered here with a choice of luxurious dog-friendly suites as well as six charming shepherd huts situated in secluded woodland at the bottom of the Lympstone Manor vineyard. Each room and suite is named after a bird of the Estuary, while each Shepherd hut is named after the woodland animals. A true gourmet destination, with acclaimed Michelin-star cuisine by Michael Caines, served in three stylish dining rooms.

The Lympstone Manor vineyard was planted in May, 2018 with 17,000 pinot noir, Meunier and Chardonnay vines to create a classic Champagne style English Sparkling Wine.It is envisaged that the first release of Lympstone Manor Cuvée will be in late 2023/2024 with a still Pinot Noir on early release for 2022.
