What it's like to work here:Cotehele is a beautiful Tudor mansion situated high above the River Tamar, with Dartmoor National Park and many unspoilt beaches nearby. The property has a glorious garden with valley views, a working mill on an historic quay and expansive estate.
The team pride themselves on providing superb customer service, and the family atmosphere amongst the 65-member team makes Cotehele a very special place to work.

Antony is an 18th-Century house set within a magnificent landscape garden, still home to the Carew Pole family. The magic of Antony was captured by director Tim Burton, as a film location for his blockbuster, Alice in Wonderland.
