Lupton, Brixham, Grade II* listed manor house in Brixham, England.
Lupton House is a manor set within large wooded grounds featuring formal gardens and sections with Italianate architectural design. The property spans approximately 108 hectares of varied landscape surrounding the main building.
The house was built in the 1770s by Charles II Hayne, Sheriff of Devon, and later reshaped. During the 1840s, Sir John Yarde-Buller oversaw neo-classical modifications to the structure.
The house serves as a community gathering space where concerts, workshops, and local group meetings take place regularly. The rooms show how a private residence transformed into a place where people come together and experience events.
The Coach House Cafe on the grounds operates during the week and provides refreshments along with complimentary parking for visitors. It is best to arrive during daytime hours when facilities are open and the grounds can be fully explored.
A major fire in 1926 led to the house being rebuilt without its original third floor, yet it retained its Grade II* listed status when designated in 1949. This loss and preservation together tell the story of how the building overcame significant damage.
