A Reservoir Lair – Vacation Rental in Sidmouth, England

A Reservoir Lair – Vacation Rental in Sidmouth, England – Available on LuxuryCoastal.co.uk

Disguised at the top of a quiet Devon lane, Woolbrook Reservoir hides one of the most unlikely lairs in England. From the outside, you’d never guess this was once a water tank buried into the landscape. From the inside, however, it transforms into a theatrical, light-filled retreat designed for gatherings, plotting, or play.

At its heart is a triple-height glass atrium — part botanical sanctuary, part command centre — around which the house spirals with dramatic angles and unexpected spaces. From leather-clad lounges to games rooms, from rooftop hot tubs to a master suite fit for a mastermind, this is a property that delights in both spectacle and secrecy.

The rooftop garden, with lawns, sculptures, and a bar, offers commanding views of the Devon countryside, while the cavernous interiors are ready to host allies, rivals, or extended family. The conversion is clever, stylish, and unapologetically bold — a hidden lair disguised beneath the rolling hills of England.

And when you need to step out of hiding, the Regency town of Sidmouth and the Jurassic Coast lie just minutes away.

This is not just a vacation rental — it’s a chance to spend a weekend in your own underground stronghold.
