Knightstone, Grade I listed manor house in Ottery St Mary, England

The medieval and Tudor manor house features traditional English architecture with formal gardens and extensive grounds one mile southeast of St Mary's Church.

In 1370, Richard de Knightstone transferred the estate to Thomas Bittlesgate, marking the beginning of a significant period for the property's development.

The property maintains connections to Elizabeth Woodville's family, as her grandfather Richard Woodville married Joan Bittlesgate, the manor's heiress.

The North Wing contains modern amenities including a cinema room, while additional structures house workshops, offices, and storage facilities for estate operations.

A Tudor-era fireplace remains preserved in one of the bedrooms, representing an original architectural element from the manor's early period.
