We had a lovely time at Larch Barn! Kevin was very friendly but not in any way intrusive. He came to greet us and made it clear he was there if we needed him for anything. Lovely barn conversion - stylish and high quality in all areas. Fab location and excellent outlook too from the big terrace. Would happily return!!...

This is a good cottage, spacious with all the facilities. Sadly, the pictures, taken some 7+ years ago, are somewhat misleading and in need of updating. The views are unfortunately, spoiled by overgrown trees, shrubs and vegetation. If the trees were trimmed back and the gardens maintained, yes the views would be spectacular. The cottage is well equipped, with all the appliances needed for a comfortable stay. As an electric car driver the EV Charger was very useful and reasonably priced and in a good location for charging. The cottage has a lot going for it, in a quiet location, good parking, however, is beginning to look in need of maintenance, particularly the decked terrace! The access from the main road is approximately 2 miles down a very narrow road which is steep in some areas. Kevin, the owner, was helpful and available when needed. Overall, there is nothing particularly wrong with this cottage, it is in an ideal location, we just feel let down by our expectations of the views and cottage....

We’re very sorry that your experience did not fully meet expectations. We carry out annual inspections of our properties and review our photos to ensure they remain an accurate reflection. However, seasonal changes can affect the appearance of trees and vegetation, which may alter the viewpoint at different times of year. The owner has a regular maintenance programme in place to keep the property to a good standard, with trees and foliage cut back at the appropriate times. We’re glad you appreciated the peaceful location and found the owner friendly and helpful. We hope you enjoyed exploring this beautiful part of Devon. Julie, Customer Support...

What a find! My dog and I enjoyed a lovely relaxing week at Larch Barn, surrounded by the beautiful sights and sounds of nature. Outside: fabulous views from the terrace and fields behind (very handy for a pre-breakfast dog walk); inside: clean, warm and luxurious. Location was perfect for us - The Donkey Sanctuary and coast just a few minutes easy drive away. On top of that, Kevin was such a welcoming, friendly host. I highly recommend Larch Barn and wouldn't hesitate to return - my dog agrees. ...
