Walnut Tree Barn is a stunning and spacious converted barn with a hot tub, set in the heart of Devon. Thoughtfully designed for light, airy and comfortable living, it features four ensuite bedrooms that can be arranged as twins or doubles. The large kitchen and cosy lounge offer plenty of space to relax and unwind, while the enclosed garden overlooks a beautiful meadow. Perfect for families or groups of friends seeking a peaceful countryside getaway. Walnut Tree Barn is a beautifully converted barn that comfortably sleeps up to 8 guests (or 9 with an additional folding bed). The property features four ensuite bedrooms, each with zip-link beds that can be arranged as twins or doubles, plus Smart TVs in every room for your comfort and convenience. The spacious lounge includes a wood burner, Smart TV, and plenty of comfortable seating for all guests — perfect for cosy evenings in.

Outside, you’ll find a secluded garden with a hot tub, patio area, comfortable outdoor furniture, and a charming pergola with a cast iron table and chairs beneath — a lovely spot to enjoy the peace and quiet. For larger groups, a Jay-Be Supreme folding single bed can be set up in the cloakroom to accommodate a ninth guest. Entry is via a secure lockbox, with the key code provided prior to your arrival. The property has a separate front door, offering guests complete privacy and convenience. We live just opposite Walnut Tree Barn and like to pop over once you’ve arrived, just to make sure everything’s okay. After that, we’ll give you your privacy but are always nearby if you need anything. It is a rural countryside location with a private garden, overlooking a meadow. There are some houses nearby, a couple of agricultural storage barns and a small campsite adjacent to the property. Within a 5 minute drive (20 minute walk) is the charming market town of Crediton. Numerous country footpaths are on the doorstep. The surrounding Yeo valley countryside is ideal for walking and cycling. Fishing and golfing are also available locally. There are plenty of local country pubs and restaurants in the surrounding villages.

Exeter has a selection of city centre bars and restaurants and there are also suitable places to eat and drink on the ancient waterside quay area of the city. The scenic national parks of Exmoor and Dartmoor are within a 40-minute drive away. Dartmoor is a vast moorland defined by forests, rivers, wetlands and tors (rock formations). Trails wind through valleys with Neolithic tombs, Bronze Age stone circles and abandoned medieval farmhouses. The area is dotted with villages, including Princetown, home to Dartmoor Prison used during the Napoleonic Wars. Exmoor National Park contains an amazing variety of landscapes that provide inspiration and enjoyment to visitors. Large areas of open moorland provide a sense of remoteness, wildness and tranquillity with spectacular coastal views, deep wooded valleys, high sea cliffs and fast flowing streams. The South Devon ‘Jurassic’ coast is a 40-minute drive away while the rugged North Devon coast and surfing beaches are a 60-minute drive away. Both the coastlines of Devon are popular visitor attractions with coastal footpath walks, beach bathing and water sports alongside the regions charming fishing villages. You will most likely need a car to get to the property, althougn there is a train station in Crediton, and taxi companies that can transport you to and from the town. Parking is available for up to five vehicles. Opposite the property is a small, family-run campsite during the summer months only (please note this does not belong to the property). Guests are welcome to enjoy the Oak Tree Meadow, a peaceful space ideal for walks. A branch railway line runs through the valley nearby. Occasionally, you may hear the gentle sound of a train passing, a subtle reminder of the serene countryside setting.

Amazing house, hosts were fantastic, fully equipped with everything we needed. We met Alison upon arrival, it was lovely to receive a welcome basket. The garden is fantastic, great views across the fields and loved hearing the trains pass every now and then. One of our group went out for a run one morning, and didn't pass anyone but the local cows. Highly recommend this barn, it was exceptional. Hot tub was a lovely addition, we really didn't want to leave.

Lovely, quiet getaway for families

The barn was clean and spacious with everything you need to relax with family or a group of friends. There was plenty of space in the garden for children to run around in the fresh air and it is well-located to go towards either stretch of Devonshire coastline and Exeter too. Allison was a very attentive host and would respond very quickly to any messages we sent.

Just Perfect

I've stayed in a lot of properties and this one was just perfect. A family Christmas that we will never forget. Alison was so helpful before we arrived responding to our multiple requests and questions. The Barn was beautifully decorated for Christmas and just a joy to be in all together. From the luxury bedding, comfy sofas and well stocked kitchen, I cannot fault a thing. It was immaculate and we will definitely return in the summer so we can enjoy the beautiful location even more. Thank you Alison!

Birthday Celebrations

I stayed at Walnut Barn for a long weekend along with 5 old school friends to celebrate our big birthday year! We had a fantastic chilled stay. The barn is beautiful with great views over the countryside and a quiet away from it all location. Lovely garden with plenty of seating areas and the hot tub was well used! There was plenty of room in the barn, great to have 4 bedrooms, all en-suite, snd a lovely large open plan kitchen/diner. The barn is very well equipped, with all you needed for your stay. Lovely personal touches too and Alison was a communicative host! Would happily recommend this property. Excellent place for a large family/friends get together.

Fabulous Property

What an amazing barn conversion. The open plan design made it feel spacious and airy yet comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped and there were instructions for the combination microwave, oven and hob in the information folder, which was useful. It was fantastic that all bedrooms were en-suite and the same size. This made room allocation a lot easier. The peacefulness of the country side created a relaxed atmosphere and the view of the field and trees from the garden added to the tranquility. We did not feel isolated by the location as Crediton was a short drive away. It was great to be given the choice of having double or twin beds by Alison and there were some lovely touches in the form of biscuits, teabags and coffee to welcome us. I would certainly recommend anyone to stay in this property and we would certainly stay there again.

Fantastic stay!

Walnut tree barn was a fantastic home away from home. Well equipped and sparkly clean, the pictures do not do it justice. We ranged in age from 74 to 16 and all enjoyed our stay. We made use of the hot tub and the games we found the in cupboard and had a very relaxing time. Communication from Alison was great, lots of information before hand and a great folder containing what we needed to know at the property. We hope to be back one day!

Top holiday

We had a really great time exploring the local area from this barn. The barn was perfect for us with comfy big beds and en-suites. The family kitchen and eating area was perfect to all hang out together and we enjoyed winding down each night in the cosy lounge. Recommend the Agatha Christie National Trust (via greenway ferry and park and ride from Dartmouth) and Castle Drogo. Also went on a steam train, went to the beach, played in the garden and enjoyed exploring the local area and river walk.

Lovely stay at the barn

Amazing place, lovely big hot tub and big space to cook and relax. Netflix in each bedroom and living areas, lovely log fire, Bluetooth speakers and different lighting and underfloor heating settings. Alison left us a bottle of bubbly which was a lovely touch and was very easy to get hold of and attentive. She even brought us out some replacement fairy lights from her home straight away when some weren't working. Very cute dog too!

About the host

Hosted by Alison

Host profile image

Alison and Ian live in the adjacent property along with their family, Rhani the cockapoo and Cleo the cat.

Why they chose this property

Alison grew up on the family dairy farm and after sometime living elsewhere, Alison and Ian decided to come back and develop the old sheep barn and mill into a family home. Then they decided to develop the old cow shed into a light and spacious four bedroom holiday home.

What makes this property unique

From the outside, Walnut Tree Barn looks quite modest and fits in with the surrounding perfectly. However, once you walk inside, it has a feeling of space and calm, due to its lofty ceilings and tasteful decor. The garden is yet private, but allows views of the beautiful oak tree meadow, with the River Yeo running through.
