Situated in glorious rolling countryside on a farm on the border between Devon and Cornwall, Stowford Barton Cottages are the perfect idyllic retreat where you can relax, get away from it all and recharge your batteries. Rosebank Cottage (ref W4218) is a delightful, 18th-century, converted stone barn with a bright open plan living area on the first floor opening out onto a pretty lawned garden, the ideal spot for a summer BBQ or to relax with a good book. It has retained much of its original charm with exposed wooden beams. Swallows Nest (ref W43165) is a spacious, detached barn conversion, again retaining lots of its charm and with a lovely garden and patio area to enjoy an alfresco supper or a morning coffee. Both cottages enjoy shared use of an on-site games room with a pool table, table tennis, dart board and football table, so there is something to keep everyone entertained.

Only a short distance from the main A30 you are transported into a world where the only sounds are those natural sounds of the country. A horse trotting down the lane or the occasional sound of birdsong. Swallows Nest is a beautiful cottage located on a farm with views across the rolling Devon hills.The cottage is well equipped and comfortably furnished and the hosts are two of the nicest people you could ever wish to meet. My only regret is I had only booked a week. We are already planning a return visit.
