Churston Court

Highlight • Pub

This gorgeous manor house is a grade II-listed building and is now a delightful inn. During Lord Churston's ownership of the building, Agatha Christie regularly visited and was believed to have been inspired to write her novel 'The Murder on the Links' while staying, due to the nearby golf course.

There are smugglers tunnels beneath the property, linking it at least with a nearby cove. Structurally unstable, the tunnels cannot be accessed.
