Imposing and impressive with views onto the River Tamar, this absolutely remarkable castle is a magical haven for families and friends seeking elegance, style and a property with an abundance of grandeur.

Four lucky hounds can also join you at this luxury abode, and you can even arrive by helicopter as there’s a landing pad. The charms of Devon are also within reach - visit Dartmoor National Park (13 miles) and take a cruise from seafaring Plymouth (7 miles).

Foodies will love the farmhouse-style kitchen with its gorgeous Aga, gas range oven and hob. Enjoy pre-dinner drinks in the sumptuous drawing room by an open fire and feast in the dining room. Read the papers by an open fire in the morning room by the pretty southern terrace, while children have fun in the cellar basement games room featuring a pool table, table football, darts and a Smart TV. Slumber falls easily in the stylish sumptuous bedrooms which include a spacious en-suite ground floor bedroom, while the first floor boasts eight gorgeous en-suites. The castellated turrets on the second floor house two further bedrooms and a family bathroom. There are also five separate WCs on the ground floor, and stylish features throughout the property including roll-top baths, beautiful wall art, even a four-poster bed. Outside, you’ll find spacious woodland gardens and grounds – enjoy a romantic walk through Lime Avenue or past the orchard blossoms. Take a refreshing dip in the pool after a busy day of adventures; soak up the breathtaking views from the castle terraces; or enjoy croquet on the lawn. On warmer nights, gather around the fire pit and relax together under the stars.

We had a WONDERFUL time at Pentillie. The venue is first class: beautiful, elegant, comfortable (oh the beds!), spotlessly clean & extraordinarily well-equipped. The gardens & walks are glorious. The staff are courteous yet friendly - just right. Special mention must be made of the willingness to accommodate guests with limited mobility: my brotherRead more in law is in advanced stages of progressive MS & was able to enjoy the weekend along with the rest of us. Our dog was in Heaven too! Glorious! Hide
