Nutwell, Manor estate in East Devon, England
Nutwell Court stands on the east bank of the River Exe estuary, directly across from Powderham Castle in a wooded park setting.
The Domesday Book of 1086 recorded the estate as Noteswille, held by King William II's thane named Donne before its transfer to Marmoutier Abbey.
The neo-classical mansion, designed by S.P. Cockerell in 1802, represents the architectural preferences of English aristocracy during the Georgian period.
The Grade II listed buildings include the main house, servants' quarters, stables, and a former indoor riding school within the estate grounds.
Sir Francis Drake cultivated an extensive garden featuring fig trees, cedars, grape vines, and numerous exotic species introduced between 1752 and 1756.
