Beautifully designed homes: Hennock, South Devon
Discover Beadon Farm, a private South Devon estate with farmhouse, guest barns, gardens and 63 acres of land
Beadon Farm is a truly exceptional property, offering a rare combination of scale, privacy, and a deep sense of calm. Nestled in a secluded valley on the eastern edge of Dartmoor National Park, the home sits at the centre of its own 63-acre estate. The grounds encompass ancient woodland, wildflower meadows, and re-wilded pasture, providing both beauty and biodiversity, while the hamlet-like setting ensures complete privacy.
Every part of Beadon Farm reflects careful restoration and high-quality craftsmanship. Stone masons rebuilt walls and created walled gardens, while a local blacksmith designed bespoke gates featuring foxgloves and birds. The buildings have been brought back to life with a vision rooted in sustainability, flexibility, and calm, creating spaces that are both functional and aesthetically remarkable.
At the heart of the estate, the main farmhouse combines traditional Dartmoor proportions with modern living, featuring a large sociable kitchen, a light-filled reception room, and a principal suite with dressing room and en-suite. Complementing the farmhouse are three beautifully converted barns: The Thatch Barn, a self-contained guest suite; Rowan Barn, a flexible space for wellness or creative pursuits; and Nettle Barn, an art studio with greenhouse and garden access. Each building blends period charm with contemporary comfort, including underfloor heating, air conditioning, and high-spec kitchens.
The gardens are thoughtfully designed, from formal courtyards and terraces to wildflower meadows and productive vegetable plots. A range of outbuildings, including the Tractor Barn, Higher Tractor Barn, and Berry Hut, provide practical spaces for storage, farming, or creative use. The 63 acres of land include pasture for grazing, ancient woodland, and rewilded areas, managed with ecological care to support biodiversity and enhance the landscape.
Despite its peaceful, private setting, Beadon Farm remains well connected. Ashburton is just 15 minutes away, Exeter 30 minutes, and London reachable via nearby Newton Abbot in around 2.5 hours by train. The estate is ideal for those seeking a self-contained retreat, a home to share with family and friends, or a base for creative and wellness pursuits, all within one of the South West’s most beautiful and unspoilt regions.
