We stayed for two weeks in the cottage to explore the National Trust properties and Devon. The cottage and location was perfect for it. I would recommend it.
We loved every second of our stay in The Barn. Very central for exploring the region and it was lovely to return to a quiet and comfortable home each night. The shower in the bathroom has great pressure and the amenities were everything we needed. Felt very welcome and safe during our stay.
A really great barn conversion, we found it very comfortable and had all amenities, beautiful situation and very convenient to many Devon towns. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it.
We stayed for four nights as our daughter is at Exeter University and had a reading week. We were able to have some great days visiting the area and have a chilled out and relaxed time. Property was very nice in a great location and handy to get around.
Would recommend to similar people or to anyone wanting to explore South Devon.
Great Stay!
The cottage is lovely. It is clean, very comfortable and a lovely place to relax. They were very accommodating for our little one too - travel cot, high chair etc.
Home from home stay in this lovely property with helpful and relaxed owners. It is very well equipped and very comfortable - wifi, hot water, shower, digital TV, beds, all excellent. Beautiful setting in the rolling Devon hills with easy access to towns and Exeter itself. Perfect stay.
The barn conversion is very nicely done with lovely features and is well equipped. Also it is in a very picturesque location, with easy access to Exeter, moors and beaches.
Our extended stay at The Barn was all we hoped it would be and an excellent reintroduction to life in the UK. Christine and Shaun are terrific hosts, aided and abetted by Tango the cat who loves his tickles and sheep who deserve a role in any remake of "The Great Escape"
We were really surprised at how lovely the barn conversion was. Although it is a little off the beaten track it is ideal for exploring the area so close to all the busy commute roads,
It is so quiet in the countryside you can really chill. Would definitely recommend to others and hope to visit again
The property was very well kept with all you need, spacious and in a lovely rural setting. The owners were very helpful and welcoming. We would recommend it 100%
This was a lovely property with all amenities. Although it was very rural , Exeter was 15 mins away. I would definitely recommend this property to others.
We moved to Devon with our young family in 2006. We both run our own businesses from home and enjoy a rare quality of life with our sons in this beautiful rural location. We spend our summers fishing and surfing and our winters on various rugby pitches and enjoying some of the beautiful local walks with our dogs. We look forward to sharing it with you.
This is the ideal location for a family holiday taking in both city and countryside. You are surrounded by Devon's iconic rolling green hills but close to the city of Exeter for shopping and cinema so theres something to do every day whatever the weather. Cornwall is an hour away with its golden beaches, surfing and tourist destinations including Rock, Padstow and locations from Rosamund Pilcher, Poldark and Doc Martin. Organic local produce is widely available and fresh fish is available at our local farm shops. Local pubs cater for all tastes and provide a warm welcome.
We love the house and the gardens and we enjoy panoramic views and an outdoor lifestyle. Devon is an ideal place to bring up a family and the house is not only a home, but a hub for our extended family and our "office space"when working from home. We are within 15 minutes of Exeter station providing a high speed rail link to London (2 1/2 hours) and Plymouth's continental ferry link is only an hour away.
