Newly listed Barn conversion, rural Devon

Set in 70 acres of grounds, this detached barn conversion is set on a quiet farm, with lots of wildlife. Walking around the grounds, there are uninterrupted views of the outstanding countryside and wildlife at every turn, it is a perfect setting for a relaxing holiday. The property has been decorated and furnished to a good standard and is situated within the Exmoor National Park. Set in the owner’s grounds, it has a private garden area with fantastic views. Sometimes you are able to see red deer, foxes, badgers and an abundance of resident and migrant birds are often seen. This tranquil setting is an ideal base to explore the delights of this beautiful part of Devon. Dogs are welcome, but must be kept on a lead, as this is a farm. It is only a short drive from the towns of Dulverton and Tiverton. Bampton is just 5 miles and offers the ’Bampton Town Trail’ which is a walk that takes you around the town, and introduces you to historic sites and buildings. Lynton & Lynmouth are two adjacent villages with Lynton being a Victorian resort, 600ft above Lynmouth and being linked by a water powered cliff railway. Lynmouth lies at an estuary where the East and West Lyn meet. This is known as "England’s Little Switzerland" offering spectacular coastal and inland walks, being the Valley of the Rocks and the steeply wooded Glen Lyn Gorge, where you are constantly reminded of both the beauty and forces of nature. Whether you are looking for an invigorating walk, horse ride or cycle across the high moors and through wooded valleys, using the excellent path network, or if the gentler comforts of a local cream tea in one of Exmoor’s beautiful villages is more your thing - Exmoor National Park has something for everyone. Shop 5 miles, pub and restaurant 1½ miles.

Wonderfully relaxed property
This property is an absolute gem. The host is really friendly, helpful and very welcoming and provides lovely personal touches. The property is well equipped and away from it all on the heart of a working farm. You are allowed to explore the farm and our children absolutely loved feeding the animals and playing with the dogs. The property is very well placed to explore Somerset and Devon including some great coastline, Exmoor and Dartmoor. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Great week stay.
We had a lovely weeks stay on the farm. The house was lovely and had everything you could need. Lovely and clean with a welcoming cream tea and a bottle of wine on arrival. Offered the chance of farm own bacon, sausages, eggs, butter and bread for a small price and they where lovely. Owners and dogs where very friendly, loved all the animals on the farm (including the naughty visiting fox). Personally great was getting to holding a 2 and a half week old piglet, made my week. Only a little comment for people with disabilities is the sofa's are rather low but there is a higher wing back chair in the downstairs bedroom. Fantastic stay.

Avoid at all costs
Property owner gave directions to property that led us to a flooded ditch and we only just made our way through it. The route into the holiday let were extremely steep and muddy. Upon arrival, we were greeted by the father of the property owner and made our way into the house. We quickly established after using the downstairs bathroom that the place was filthy. The shower cubicle was dirty and laden with hairs. The bed linen was stained and had hairs on it as did the headboard. The property owner did not answer or return our call and we took the decision to leave. The property owner and Vrbo have refused our claims for a refund and this has left us no option but to share our disasterous experience with you.

Lovely quiet restful break. Just what we were looking for. The cottage had everything we needed. Only downside was the sofa was a bit low and difficult for my elderly mother to use comfortably- my daughter and myself were able to sort of roll off it which caused a lot of laughter so it’s not all bad !

Great rural hideaway
A lovely farm retreat - it’s very isolated but great for exploring the local area and exmoor. Adrian is a great host and provided a warm welcome and great local advice . I rented this lovely property to take my elderly mum and disabled dad for a weeks break - we had a lovely time and it’s well equipped but as a word of warning - the lounge seating is low and soft and it was a real struggle to get my parents up and down from the sofa !
