A wonderful stay

We had three generations of a family staying and had an absolutely fantastic time. The property is every bit as good as you would imagine from the pictures and description; actually it’s better as so much care and thought has been put into the small details. Wonderful hosts. We’ll be back!

Super!

We were so excited to stay here and everything exceeded our expectations. It was a truly wonderful place to spend our Easter weekend. The weather was typically British but that didn’t hamper things as there’s so much fun to be had at the house. Owners were lovely. We hope to return one day.

The walk to the village is a task, but from 2-70 we did it and loved it.

Fantastic property, perfect for my birthday celebration with all the family. The property is so well appointed with great living area, garden and the icing on the cake is the wonderful pool and games room. The area is beautiful with lovely walks right on your door step. Lovely villages near by and the Cleave pub does a delicious roast. Such a find we will be back. Our hosts were so lovely and even left a birthday card for me. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Beautiful property

We had a lovely relaxing week in this beautiful barn. Thee were 10 of us altogether and there was loads of space. We used the pool at least twice a day. Roger and Sue were the perfect hosts, checking in and helping out when needed. I would thoroughly recommend this as the perfect holiday retreat set in beautiful countryside.

Nothing was too much trouble for Roger and Sue. When one of our party’s car got stuck on a tree root on one of the lanes, they jumped in their Land Rover and came to the rescue. The accommodation was amazing with absolutely everything you could think of on hand. The pool and the games room were used constantly throughout the weekend and even my 90 year old parents had a go at playing table tennis ! We had lovely dog walks in the surrounding countryside and an amazing Sunday roast dinner at the local pub, the Cleave in Lustleigh. Our weekend was perfect and the only problem was leaving it to come home … no one wanted to leave. Thankyou Roger and Sue. We hope to come back very soon

Such an amazing holiday we were very sad to leave

Beautiful holiday home set in almost untouched stunning surroundings, fantastic views and lovely garden. This has by far been the best family holiday we have had and to have such great hosts where nothing is too much trouble really made it a home away from home. The pictures really don't do this place justice, the apartment is huge and very well appointed with everything you would ever need, and the pool is simply amazing. Thanks again Sue & Roger we hope to be seeing you again soon, Andy, Mandy & Kids

Another magical stay

This was our second stay at the Barn at Lower Harton Farm. We had such a wonderful time last year and my children had been counting down the days (literally) until our return. We cannot say enough good things about it the property, the area, and our hosts Sue and Roger. Anything we needed, they were able to provide (to our door!) within minutes. We spend out days swimming in the pool, hiking across the beautiful moors, climbing Tors, and exploring the river valley. The only problem is that the week goes too quickly!

Great get together house

We had a wonderful time, the pool is the icing on the cake, the grandchildren spent most of their stay in there, didn’t want to leave, the games room is great too. Roger & sue were great hosts, checked everything was ok with us, then gave us privacy to enjoy ourselves, we had a bbq & cooked in all weekend, everything was there that we needed, didn’t venture far, as wasn’t great weather, thankfully cleared when we left, as the lanes are very narrow, All the bedrooms & bathrooms & bathrooms were great, the bonus of changing rooms by the pool meant we didn’t have to walk through house wet & we left costumes there to use next time, would definitely love to return, I know the grandchildren definitely would 😄

An absolutely amazing property!

We had an absolutely fantastic half term break at The Barn! The accommodation was top notch! It was spacious, well equipped, spotlessly clean, incredibly comfortable with many spaces to sit and relax. The weather wasn't great but it didn't really matter as we didn't want to leave to house once we saw the stunning swimming pool with spacious changing rooms which was for our private use. The games room was amazing and great fun. The outdoor space was beautiful and we enjoyed some walks across the fields with our dog who was made very welcome. It was absolutely perfect in all areas. We'll be back!!!
