Mr Cook July 2025

Leigh Barn is in an excellent location, within reasonable travel distance of both the coast (Salcombe, Dartmouth) and Dartmoor. It's down very narrow country lanes, so be prepared to meet a tractor on the way! The garden and grounds are a big bonus, especially on a summer's evening. But despite all this, we were disappointed to find on arrival that the lounge downstairs is quite gloomy with only limited natural light. This lack of light continued into both bathrooms where there is no light over the mirrors, making shaving and/or the application of make-up very difficult. The first floor bedroom is very attractively furnished but guests should be told that it sits immediately above the lounge and that there is no door between the two - it's not a room in the true sense of the word. The ground floor bedroom is less attractive and more suited to children that adults. Both bedrooms have skylights without blinds, so may cause an early awakening when it's bright outside. The kitchen is rustic rather than modern and lacks storage space for guests' food (other than the fridge/freezer). There is plenty of crockery, glasses, cutlery and consumables, but the kitchen knives needed replacing. The microwave sits on top of the fridge/freezer so not practical for shorter people. We were lucky that the weather was kind during our stay, but we'll be looking for somewhere else next time. ...

An amazingly tranquil bolthole set in beautiful scenery with all the home comforts you would expect.

Mr Simmons September 2024

Leigh Barn is a lovely old barn conversion.It is very comfortable and all the fittings in the kitchen and bathrooms are modern and of high quality. The huge garden is a particular delight. The inn in Churchstow is recommended for an evening meal.

Lovely little property in a lovely quiet location.

So peaceful and lovely neighbours.

Would recommend.

Prof Simons April 2024

Leigh Barn is beautifully appointed, comfortable, spacious and (once the central heating had come on), cosy and warm. A haven in wet weather! The owners were generously helpful when we arrived, made sure we were very welcome and respected our privacy thereafter. The garden was an absolute delight and a wonderful piece of 'icing on the cake'. ...
