Castle Drogo ist das letzte Landschloss, das in Großbritannien gebaut worden ist. Es liegt in der südwestenglischen Grafschaft Devon in der Nähe der Ortschaft Drewsteignton.

Der ursprüngliche Entwurf für das hoch über der Schlucht des River Teign liegende Pseudo-Schloss stammt von dem Architekten Edwin Lutyens im Auftrag von Julius Drewe, Geschäftsmann und Gründer der Home and Colonial Stores. Der 1910 begonnene und nie ganz vollendete Herrensitz besteht vollständig aus Granit. Stilistisch lehnt sich die Architektur an Burgen des Mittelalters und der Tudor-Zeit an, verbunden mit zeitgenössischen Stilelementen.
