Dartington Hall in Dartington, near Totnes, Devon, England, is a country estate that is the headquarters of the Dartington Hall Trust, a charity specializing in the arts, social justice and sustainability. The Dartington Hall Trust is based on an historic 1,200 acre estate near Dartington in south Devon. It was held by the Martin family between the early twelfth and mid-fourteenth centuries, but on the death of William Martin in 1326, the feudal barony of Dartington escheated to the crown and in 1384 was granted by King Richard II to his half-brother John Holland, 1st Duke of Exeter (c.1352-1400), created Earl of Huntingdon in 1388 and Duke of Exeter in 1397.

The hall was mostly derelict by the time it was bought in 1925 by Leonard Elmhirst and his wife, Dorothy (Whitney) Elmhirst. They commissioned architect William Weir to renovate the buildings and restored the Great Hall's roof. The gardens were created by Dorothy Elmhirst with the involvement of major landscape designers Beatrix Farrand and Percy Cane and feature a tiltyard, thought to be the remains of an Elizabethan water garden, and major sculptures.
