Haldon House, east front, 1830 engraving. Haldon Belvedere is visible on the hilltop behind left.North Pavilions, former stables block and a remnant of the house,[1] now the Lord Haldon Hotel. The main house was set back to the left (south).
Haldon House (pronounced: "Hol-don") on the eastern side of the Haldon Hills in the parishes of Dunchideock and Kenn,[2] near Exeter in Devon, England, was a large Georgian country house largely demolished in the 1920s.[1] The surviving north wing of the house, comprising the entrance front of the stable block, consists of two cuboid lodges linked by a screen pierced by a Triumphal Arch,[3] with later additions,[1] and serves today as the "Lord Haldon Hotel".[4] The house was originally flanked by two such paired pavilions, as is evident from 19th century engravings.
