Guests that stayed at this property said

Reviewers repeatedly commend the property for its exceptional cleanliness, with several noting it as one of the best they've experienced. The high standard of decor contributes to the overall sense of a well-maintained and clean environment.

The property is lauded for its quiet and peaceful location, ideal for exploring South Devon. Its proximity to attractions like Buckfast Abbey and the convenience for visiting towns like Totnes and Plymouth are appreciated by guests.

Numerous guests find the barn very comfortable, with special mentions of the comfortable bedding and spacious accommodation. The warm atmosphere even during colder months is noted, although one review mentioned the duvets being too hot, which is subjective.

Facilities are generally praised, especially the well-equipped kitchen and the inclusion of high-end features. However, some guests suggested improvements such as more cutlery and cooking equipment, and a more comfortable bench in the kitchen. The lack of a visitors' comments book and a clothes dryer were also noted.

The owner's responsiveness and helpfulness are seen as thoughtful gestures. A welcome pack is provided, though one guest suggested it could be improved with local treats. It should be noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and not guaranteed.

About this property

Tucked away in a hamlet just outside Buckfastleigh, Devon, is this wonderful two-bedroom barn conversion, 1 Caddaford Barns. Enjoying a wonderful setting next to the owner’s farmhouse, adjacent to an organic working farm, and settled within sight of the stunning Dartmoor National Park, 1 Caddaford Barns is a fantastic choice for couples or a family of four. The property benefits from two off-road parking spaces and a communal front courtyard with table and chairs, perfect for a glass of wine.

All this and more awaits at No 1 Caddaford Barns. Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 1120737 together sleeping up to 12 guests.

Buckfastleigh, a multicultural town in the county of Devon, South, offers an unforgettable experience to its many guests. There is a lot to see and do in this beautiful part of England, and the area has a lively and bustling atmosphere to match the wide variety of modern and historical services and attractions. The town's major draw is the Benedictine Buckfast Abbey, which features beautiful lavender gardens and a community of monks who are able to support themselves without outside help. You can have a lovely supper for two while sipping on some Buckfast tonic wine, or you can take the kids on a fun day trip to Pennywell Farm. The Open Air Pool & Skatepark, the Climbing Centre, the Butterfly Farm, and the Valiant Soldier Museum are just a few of the many exciting things to do in the city. Explore the valley of the River Dart and take in the beautiful landscape before heading to the South Devon Railway, a historic railroad that runs parallel to the river. Located on the outskirts of Dartmoor National Park, there is an abundance of natural beauty just outside your door, including a plethora of bird species, breathtaking vistas, and walking paths that are suitable for hikers of all skill levels. Totnes, not far away, features a historical museum as well as the Totnes Fashion & Textiles Museum; it's also a wonderful day trip destination thanks to its abundance of hiking trails and restaurants, cafes, pubs, and wine bars. Visit Newton Abbot for a dose of history or a day at the races, or spend the day at the beach in Torquay or Paignton, where you can take your pick from a wide variety of kid- and adult-friendly waterside attractions. Buckfastleigh is ideally located for seeing the rest of South Devon, and it has plenty to offer every type of tourist.

    It’s not far from Totnes which is a great town and is perfect for explorations to the River Dart and to the south Devon coast. Highly recommended and will use again in the future.
