Eden Hotel Collection to sell Buckland Tout-Saints
The hotel company, which bought the Bovey Castle estate in 2014, said it was selling the 16-room hotel to focus on further expansion.
“Buckland Tout-Saints has been owned by Eden Hotels for the past 12 years and the sale is a strategic decision given the close proximity of sister hotel Bovey Castle in Dartmoor,” said Mark Chambers, group managing director at Eden Hotel Collection.
“The Eden Hotel Collection’s longer-term plan is to acquire larger properties as and when the right opportunities arise.
“It will remain business as usual at Buckland Tout-Saints and all advance bookings will be honoured if a sale goes through.”
The 17th century manor house features 16-rooms and is set within 4.5 acres of gardens and woodlands, including a croquet lawn and helipad.
Its on-site 120-cover Queen Anne restaurant currently holds two AA rosettes.
Martin Rogers, head of UK hotel transactions at Savills, said: "The iconic Buckland Tout-Saints is a fantastic example of a successful country house hotel. It is well known and respected in the area and we expect high levels of interest in the property.
“The property could also make a wonderful private house subject to planning permission."
