Larch Barn has that delightful uncluttered feel of a holiday cottage yet still provides everything needed for a home from home experience. Kevin, the owner was present and helpful without being intrusive and he really made the holiday with some little extra touches. If you like a gentle stroll there is a great walk through the adjoining fields and back through the wood and for something more challenging there are paths and bridleways accessible directly from the cottage including the East Devon Way which passes through some beautiful bluebell woods - I would love to return at bluebell time. There is a lot of wildlife to see around the area including some Roe deer who visited the gardens most days during my visit. Sidmouth, Branscombe and Beer are really easily accessed and there are amazing coastal walks and lovely places to stop for afternoon tea. There really was nothing not to like about this holiday....

Please feel free to publish as the barn is one of the best we have stayed in and excepting my two large dogs who behave, made us feel very welcome. We have a wonderful week, the Barn is so lovely warm, clean and beautifully decorated, making relaxing is so easy. The underfloor heating was excellant and shower brillant for my tall fussy husband. The short walk around the attached land with the views complemented the relaxing feel. The deer in the garden, seal on the beach and the high standard of food in local pubs, cafes and restaurants. Only a short drive to coastal points of interest and in February the crowds were missing, and we worked around the weather. Kevin the owner is on site and is very consensus that all our needs were met, which was easy as we had none....

Larch Barn proved to be the perfect venue for our week exploring the beautiful East Devon countryside and coastline. We have stayed in some lovely places over the years but this has to be one of the best in every way and we would highly recommend Larch Barn for its superb position, excellent facilities and very high standard of accommodation...

Larch Barn provided an excellent venue for our winter break with friends. First rate accommodation & contents with great attention to detail. It is on our 'return to' list - there are not many on that! It would get 4.5 stars - if I could do half a star....

We really enjoyed our stay at Larch Barn, despite the poor weather the Barn was very warm and cosy and a great base for my wife, baby boy, dog and I to go and explore the surrounding area in the day and hunker down in the evenings. The owner was amazing and very helpful with recommendations and assistance when we needed it. We’d love to come back again!...
