Gidleigh Castle is in the small village of Gidleigh on the edge of Dartmoor some 3 km to the north-west of the town of Chagford, Devon (grid reference SX671884).

This was a fortified manor house built by William de Prouz around 1324.

It is now a ruined keep tower with two storeys, an undercroft and a first floor hall.
