About

The Mole Resort

The Mole Resort is a substantial countryside resort and events destination set within 125 acres of North Devon countryside at Chittlehamholt, near Umberleigh.

The resort offers more than 90 bedrooms across the Manor House and lodges, three principal function rooms and smaller meeting and private dining spaces. Corporate groups can combine meetings with more than 40 onsite activities, including archery, axe throwing, tennis, disc golf, foot golf, yoga and countryside experiences.

Why Hire

The Mole Resort offers something quite different from a conventional North Devon conference hotel. The combination of meeting facilities, accommodation and 125 acres of countryside means organisers can build an entire residential programme around the venue rather than simply booking a meeting room and bedrooms.

 

The Valley Suite and Dartmoor spaces provide capacity for larger conferences and dinners, while the Exmoor Room, Morning Room and Private Dining Room support breakouts, leadership sessions and smaller meetings. The ability to move between formal meeting rooms, outdoor spaces and activities is particularly valuable for retreats and team events.

 

The resort is strongest for programmes where the time outside the meeting room matters as much as the conference itself. Groups can incorporate team-building, wellness, private dining and countryside activities, while exclusive-use packages can give a company access to the entire estate, including accommodation, restaurants, leisure facilities and event spaces.
