Menabilly, English country house in Cornwall, England.

The mansion features early Georgian architecture with stone walls, large windows, and coastal views near the town of Fowey in southern Cornwall.

The first structure was built in 1589 by John Rashleigh and completed by his son Jonathan in 1624, becoming the seat of the Rashleigh family.

Author Daphne du Maurier leased the property in the 1940s, drawing inspiration from it for her novel Rebecca where it became the fictional Manderley.

Three holiday cottages within the estate grounds are available for rental, while the main house remains a private residence of the Rashleigh family.

The estate spans over 30,000 acres, making it the largest private landholding in Cornwall, incorporating gardens, woodlands, and diverse tree species.
