Chambercombe Manor is a mediæval manor house near Ilfracombe, Devon. It was possibly built in the 15th century for the Champernon family, and was much altered in the 16th and 17th centuries, and later ages.
The estate though dates back to the 11th century and was recorded in the Domesday Book.
The house is a Grade II* listed building.[1]
History
The Manor was owned by the Champernon family until the 15th century, when it passed through various families until 1979 when it was donated to the Chambercombe Manor Trust.[2] The house lost its status as an estate at some point, and for a long time it was used as a farmhouse. However, it did not lose its former grandeur during this period, and today the manor is open to the public. The house contains eight period rooms available to view, ranging from Elizabethan to Victorian.[3]
