Congratulations to Kevin Scholes! winner of our European skiing holiday competition


Our Devon Holiday Competition is now closed for entry
Brunel Manor provides a comprehensive programme of holidays, house parties and conferences where people can meet with God in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, finding both spiritual and physical refreshment.

The holiday programme is designed to cater for all tastes. Some weeks have a theme such as painting, golf, gardening, card-making or creative writing. Others offer Bible teaching from a well-known Christian speaker. Many guests simply relax, enjoying the stunning south coast scenery. Brunel Manor offers holidays to suit every kind of person: singles or couples, retired or working, with or without children, young or old, and those who have lost a loved one.

Situated in the midst of Isambard Kingdom Brunel’s historic woodland sanctuary, the Manor commands a prime position on the English Riviera with its spectacular coastline adjacent to the awe-inspiring, rugged beauty of Dartmoor.

The Manor is within walking distance of two secluded beaches, and only a short distance from Torquay’s many popular attractions. During summer months guests can sit on the terrace enjoying the wonderful vista, or walking through the tranquil gardens and woodland. In winter there are log fires, comfortable lounges and reception areas for relaxation. The Chapel is always open for prayer and meditation, and the Manor’s pastoral and prayer team are always available. Sports and leisure facilities include a heated, indoor swimming pool, children’s adventure play area and all-weather tennis court.

 

 
Children welcome

Brunel Manor has a variety of rooms, mainly

 

en-suite, to suit everyone from single people through to large families. There are also rooms for people with physical disabilities plus lift access to all floors. Children are especially welcome; cots, highchairs and an early evening meal can be provided if required.

 

Brunel Manor is open virtually all year round for individual holidays or retreats, or as a venue for a group conference or houseparty. Guests can stay on a daily basis or as part of a conference or church group using the Manor, Brunel Court or Brunel Lodge, which is set in its own lovely gardens.
