Description
Hunters Moon Hotel, formerly known as Salcombe House, is a late 18th century building with early 19th century additions, located on Sid Road in Sidmouth. It was originally built for Sir James Cockburn, Dean of York, and later occupied by the Marquis of Bute, followed by the Cornish family when they became Lords of the Manor of Salcombe Regis. The hotel is two storeys tall with stuccoed main elevations. The entrance front is positioned at right angles to the road and features a reeded cornice at the parapet. The building has a modern attic that is unobtrusive and symmetrical fenestration with five windows, including a round-headed window in the centre on the first floor. The windows are recessed sashes with intact glazing bars and keystones above.
The central Ionic porch has been glazed in. The west garden front has four windows, three of which are in a full-height canted bay that includes a cornice and parapet returned from the entrance front. Closer to the road, there is a single-storey red brick wing that is stuccoed at the front, featuring a large tripartite sash window with intact glazing bars. The brick side elevation has two Gothic windows with stone or stucco tracery and a central Gothic doorway. A parapet with coping conceals the roof, which includes a small belvedere or clock tower topped with a lead ogee peaked roof and a delicate weathervane. This wing may have originally served as a coach house. At the rear, there is a two-storey stuccoed service wing with a hipped slate roof and sash windows with intact glazing bars. The former dovecot has been demolished.
