My wife and I spent 5 nights (Mon-Fri) at this lovely converted barn on Exmoor. We stayed during late November, so we were treated to the beautiful autumnal colours of nature, although at this time of year the temperature does drop off considerably after sundown, however the property does have very good central heating and a fire if you choose to use it (which we didn't). The property is accessed by narrow lanes and the driveway to the main farmhouse, but the property is set up above the farmhouse, so you are not overlooked, although you can see the farmhouse a short distance away from the front of the property. The parking at the front has ample room to manoeuvre your car. (Room for 2/3 cars) Entry is at the rear of the property, which you need to ascend several steps to access (keeps you fit). And as for the property itself, the property is presented to a VERY HIGH standard, with furnishings and equipment top quality. Bathroom well equipped and with lashings of hot water for shower or bath (which is separate). Bedrooms are of good sizes (1double,1twin), suitable for family of four or two couples. Very quiet setting although you may just hear the gentle hum of the fridge/freezer. We ventured out to Taunton (1.1/4hr) good p/and ride, Ilfracombe 50 mins, Exeter (1.1/2hr)p/and ride, good for shopping. And the moor for the adventurous. But back to the property, quite simply put, a lovely, quiet, off the beaten track setting, where you can enjoy a few drinks and food and just chill out, not tied to any time restraints and just relax. Thanks to the owners for the welcome gifts. Much appreciated. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay which went by far to quick. Highly recommended. X.

The perfect hideaway spot for walkers and nature lovers. I've known this property for over fifty years but this is the first time I have stayed here and it didn't disappoint.
