A fabulous property, beautifully furnished and in a quiet, stunning location with far reaching views. With lots of local walks from the doorstep it is the perfect place for a week away with the dog.

The barn was the best place we've ever stayed in, everything was just perfect! The furnishings were so so comfortable and top quality, we had absolutely everything we needed in all of the rooms and didn't want to leave! Kevin was so welcoming and helpful and we loved having little Lily on our first morning to relax with in the barn. The area was stunning and perfect for walks, runs, the hills, the sea and the nearby towns were all beautiful, we love Devon!

This is a fantastic cottage in a beautiful location. The views from all rooms are stunning. It was a perfect spot to relax by the fire enjoying family time and views across the valley. The owner was very helpful and friendly. It is within easy reach of lovely coastal walks and beaches.
Mr Young September 2020
A truly relaxing week spent at Larch Barn. Enjoyed the welcome hamper including Prosecco and scrummy West Country Crunchy Ginger biscuits. Very comfortable beds. Good en suite facilities with walk in shower + bath and atmospheric log burner. Star gazing from expansive terrace a must. Sidmouth and all of East Devon easily accessible including Donkey Sanctuary, Seaton Tramway and River Cottage etc. Week passed too quickly - highly recommended.
Mr Crosley September 2020
This cottage is ideal for a lovely peaceful holiday with fantastic views, but also within easy reach of facilities and Sidmouth and all it has to offer.
Mrs Turville September 2020

Miss Mills August 2020
The property is absolutely stunning in it's design, layout, materials and furnishings used. It had a really spacious feel to it and was extremely comfortable. It felt like more than a home from home. I actually, probably like everyone else wish that I lived in it!
Mrs Hunt August 2020
The owner was one of the most helpful, attentive owners we have had contact with, nothing was too much trouble and he contacted you on the first day and then made himself available if you needed anything, without contacting you unnecessarily
Miss Parker February 2020
Wonderful accommodation, above and beyond. Loved sitting on the decking as the sun went down listening to the bird song... even though we were in our coats and hats!
Mr Condie February 2020
My wife and I would most certainly like to use the cottage again in the future.

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.
Mr Roberts October 2019
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!
Ms Cooper September 2019
This is a wonderful cottage with a friendly and hospitable owner, set in a beautiful location. Ideal for visitors of any age, an added bonus is the access to the owner’s fields and lovely walks from the door. The cottage is all on one level, with accessible shower, so well adapted to visitors who are not wheelchair users, but have limited mobility. We hope to visit again soon.
Mrs Renshaw September 2019
The location of this property is beautiful , with the view from the deck area into the valley giving spectacular views.
Mrs Nixon September 2019
This property is exactly as it appears in the photographs. It is a beautiful, spacious Barn converted to an exceptionally high standard, very private, exceedingly well furnished and extremely comfortable. The view from the large deck is simply stunning, the tranquil Devon countryside and peaceful surroundings only gently interrupted by the sounds of nature. Kevin the owner is genuinely welcoming, and kindly provides a generous welcome hamper as well as many other thoughtful extras. We have returned from our holiday calm and rested, relaxed and restored, and would definitely love to return to Larch Barn again in the future.
Mr Mulder August 2019
For a quite and relaxing holiday this is the place to be. Beautiful barn with magnifisent view.
Mrs Ashpole May 2019
We had a lovely week in Larch Barn. Very comfortable and spacious. Lovely location, very quiet. Ease of visiting locations in area and a lovely pub, Hare and Hounds 10 minutes away, good food and very dog friendly. Our dog is elderly so found the paths around and in the grounds of property difficult, due to being on the side of a hill. Owner very knowledgeable of area and helpful. Thank you for the extra rugs for our dog who has difficulty with uncarpeted floors.

Thanks so much for taking the time to review Larch Barn - it sounds like you had a wonderful holiday overall and enjoyed visiting lots of lovely places all over Devon. Larch Barn is situated on a hillside overlooking a beautiful valley with lots of paths and lovely walks dotted around the grounds of the owner's cottage. If you're looking for something more 'on the flat' in the future however to accommodate your four legged friend, then please don't hesitate to get in touch as we'd be delighted to help you find something suitable for all.

Mrs Mann May 2019
A stunning barn conversion in an equally stunning setting. It all looks beautiful in the advert and it more than lives up to expectations. Thank you
Mr Jewsbury May 2019
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
Prof Fingleton April 2019
We absolutely adored this barn conversion. It has quality and comfort throughout whilst nestled in a fantastic rural location. Kevin the owner is very welcoming and has equipped the bedrooms, ensuites, lounge and balcony with everything that you could need for a very comfortable stay. The views from the balcony were breathtaking and perfect for watching the sunset and star gazing. Parking for 2 cars was easy and the location was perfect for visits to Sidmouth, the donkey sanctuary and many other attractions. We strongly recommend Larch Barn and hope to return soon. Thank you Kevin for a fantastic holiday.
Mrs Barnard March 2019
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.

Mrs Ashfield February 2019
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.
Good or bad, we publish all the reviews left by the guests who have stayed in this cottage, with the few exceptions stated in our Review Guidelines.
