In the pretty little hamlet of Taw Green 1½ miles from South Tawton is this dear little detached cottage converted from a barn behind a mill house. Head up the stone steps into the open plan living space, all warm and cosy with a wood burning stove, lofty ceiling and attractive paintings and furnishings. You will sleep peacefully in the comfortable double bedroom on the same level. Sit out and enjoy the sun and the peace in the shared garden beside the River Taw, with its table and chairs and bench. This is lovely countryside for walking, with Dartmoor nearby for getting your pulse racing heading to the top of tors. Pretty little villages with friendly old inns abound and the cathedral city of Exeter has everything you could wish for in the shape of restaurants and shops. With its wonderful rural setting, Mill House Barn is a fabulous tranquil retreat for couples to enjoy.
The small village of Sticklepath lies along an old ridgeway path within the northern boundary of the Dartmoor National Park, and is home to a handful of shops, two traditional pubs serving good food and the fascinating Museum of Rural Industry

The location is quiet. The slight downside is the space to park a car. You need to reverse between two buildings are you'd better not have a wide Porsche which has a wide bum! :)

Very tight space for parking car all can be confirmed with photos. Finally large sofa very uncomfortable needs replacing.

Lovely 3 nights spent at Mill House Barn. Very clean and good linen and towels provided. Comfortable bed. Everything you need is there - I definitely overpacked! The parking space is adequate. We have a Nissan QashqaI and I managed to drive and reverse it into the spot and we could both get out. We agree with previous comments sofa needs replacing or even just more Cwtchy cushions perhaps would make it more comfortable. A footstool and a small table to put in front of the sofa would be good too. DefinItaly need a mirror in the bedroom nearer the electric points for using a hairdryer - I looked a right fright this morning!! The wood burner is great but instruction how to light would be good and smaller logs provided. Managed 2 nights but went out last night. No there isnât WI-FI - good and bad. We were unable to plan our day or check on the weather. The TV is tuned into Midland news so weâre aware of what weather was like at home! The TV was good but instruction on channels would be good -ok for us. Found radio onTV 701,702,703, 704 which was great. Yes the garden is a bit wild and could do with a tidy up but charming all the same. The Pub we wanted to go to for dinner on Monday The Oxenham Arms is shut on a Monday - bad planning on our part. Lovely place. Our biggest problem was going at this time of the year when you cant take dogs off lead. We are new to dogs and our Cocker spaniel Luna is not a lover of the lead. We drove 30 miles to Westward Hoe! so she could do 10 miles on the beach! Hubby put his back out putting on his walking boots - or so he says! Meant I had to do all the work today! And drive home to Worcestershire!!! All in all a lovely place and would recommend and go back.
