About the Business

Approached by a wooded drive of nearly a mile long, nestling in the hills of Dartmoor lies Yarner, a private two hundred and fifty acre estate with magnificent views overlooking the Wray Valley and ancient Yarner Wood. Yarner House was built in the 16th century as a Tudor hunting lodge; the castellations and extra wings were Victorian additions. The Yarner estate extends to just below the summit of Haytor, an imposing granite outcrop once visited by Queen Victoria and still enjoyed by many people.

Stone used in the building of London Bridge (now in Arizona) was quarried on these moors, although today the silence is only broken by the cries of wheeling buzzards. The name Yarner comes from medieval French and means "where eagles soar". This provides a magnificent galleried drawing room with Canadian Maple floors and vast windows which offer spectacular views over Yarner Wood and the Wray Valley.
