About Rower Fort

Unique self-catering 8 bedroom tower house in Devon with indoor swimming pool and rooftop hot tub


"Unbelievable! A fairy tale house in a fairy tale location. Possibly the best placed jacuzzi on planet earth"! "The views are incredible, and even the locals could not believe this secret gem existed in Devon" These are just some comments from guests staying at Rower Fort. A unique property for family holidays, reunions, weddings, special occasions and celebrations. Sleeping up to 16, Rower Fort stands out as a holiday 'cottage' with a real difference. The combination of the traditional farmhouse and part castellated folly tower, complete with battlements, is eclectic in style, original and imaginative.

Dating back to 1827, Rower Fort has been developed and restored and now offers a truly unique venue. On top of the folly tower you will find the most remarkably sited hot tubs you'll ever come across, from which you can enjoy the panoramic views by day and shooting stars by night. Our new Morrocan style influenced swimming pool, offers the very best in style and relaxation.

With 8 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, and ample living accommodation, set within 12 acres of private grounds, Rower Fort offers an exciting location to get away from it all, as well as spend time with family and friends.
