Hayloft
The Hayloft was an amazing place to stay x The views were amazing especially at sunset. The bedrooms were lovely all en-suite and with extra touches like a hairdryer in every one. The games room was brilliant for a game of ping pong, air hockey and darts. We had a wonderful family weekend thank you Nanette

A gem
This house was a brilliant base for a get together to celebrate a significant birthday. Spacious house with 6 en-suite bedrooms all of which could be made up as king sized beds. Lovely welcome, very responsive hosts, plenty of crockery and cutlery and a table big enough to sit everyone comfortably. Lots of parking, dog friendly and an enclosed garden. It was amazing

It was a big WOW from us all as we entered The Hayloft, from the authentic flagstone flooring to the wonderful wrought iron circular lights. It was spacious warm and comfortable. The bedrooms being all ensuite just made everything so much more easier with added comforts, of a lovely cosy towelling gown each.Our host was helpful and friendly, the excellent, and the beautifully flower decorated cake was delicious. I would certainly reccomend The Hayloft. Oh yes and great games roomg

Beautiful house!!!
We absolutely loved staying here. The photos really don’t do the barn justice, it’s so much bigger than we thought and we had so much space. It was perfect for what we needed it for. The bedrooms are lovely and all the beds are really comfortable. The barn is lovely and warm with underfloor heating which was a huge bonus. the owners let us have a late checkout which was amazing because it was our wedding weekend, so we could have breakfast with our family. Thank you so so much. This made our whole post wedding morning, so much more relaxed and it was a lovely way to end our wedding. We had everything we needed in the house and will be returning again for a family trip.

Great property for friends and family.
Great property as one of our group is in a wheelchair and he was able to be totally independent both inside and out as no thresholds. I fact he said it was the best disabled bathroom ever. Huge cooker, lots of pans and dishes. As a group of friends we had to improvise the seating so we could all sit together downstairs but this was due to the makeup of the group.

We enjoyed our holiday, although our autistic 5year old worried about the poor TV reception and the inevitable summer farmyard flies. Very happy with the sustainability ethos of the property.

Excellent facilities for the occasion
Our stay was flawless, conveniently located in the heart of the countryside. The facilities were great and the listing doesn’t do it justice, all of us who stayed had nothing but positive things to say about the accommodation which was thoughtfully decorated throughout. It was a shame the weather wasn’t on our side the whole time so we could make use of the great outdoor space however we were so lucky with the inside space that it didn’t affect the weekend. Would happily recommend to friends and family. Thank you for having us :)

Lovely stay!
Lovely stay and a nice warm welcome with prosecco and a homemade cake (thank you!) Great accommodation and bedrooms/kitchen well equipped - we all had a great time! Love the 6 bedrooms all have en-suites so no-one compromised! A couple of cleanliness bits with a few minor issues of dirty dishes and a toilet but didn’t effect our stay at all. Really lovely stay and we all enjoyed it! 😀 thank you for having us! :)

Family holiday at the Hayloft
Family holiday ages 79 down to 4 plus 2 dogs. What a fabulous holiday home and lovely hosts. Left us a delicious home made cake which my family enjoyed. Fabulous garden which was very secure for children and dogs. Comfortable beds and good showers. We loved the log fire after we all got soaked at the Devonshire Show. Only negative was that we would have liked more sofas as there was 11 of us. Would definetly holiday there again.

The Host was really helpful and stayed in touch with the up and coming booking. On arrival was greeted with a lovely home made cake which was a lovely touch. The barn is stunning, perfect for couples who all want a big comfortable bed and enjoy suit. My family were very impressed that no one had to compromise on bedrooms they are all stunning. It’s fully equipped with everything you would need, beautiful outdoor space and great games room. We will definitely come back!! Thank you for having us.

Lovely property
We’ve just had a lovely week at the hayloft. There was 3 families in our group, plenty of space for all. Everything we needed in the kitchen. Hand wash, washing up liquid, washing machine detergent, dishwasher tablets, towels and even bathrobes were provided. The games room was brilliant for the kids and the big kids. Lovely quiet location and we were greeted with a beautiful cake with edible flowers on arrival. Just a shame the price to hire has almost doubled for next year

AMAAAAZING STAY!
We loved our stay! The place was just so beautiful and each room having an en suite was just so easy and helpful. My family were welcomed really well and we were even gifted with a homemade cake with beautiful edible flowers, this was such a kind and appreciated gesture. The place is big enough for 12 people and there was plenty of space for family game nights. We particularly enjoyed playing cricket in the outdoor space! The views are so nice and peaceful and it is lovely to wake up to this each morning. We wish that we could have stayed longer! We will definitely be booking in again soon. Special shout out to Nanette who was very responsive and helpful!

60th Birthday celebration family get together
Booked this beautiful property for my husband & his twin brother as a surprise family get together for their 60th Birthday. Nanette the host was very helpful & friendly. We were made to feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. A bottle of bubbly in the fridge & a gorgeous homemade cake was waiting for us on arrival. All six bedrooms were beautifully decorated with very comfortable beds & quality duvets, pillows & bed linen. We enjoyed family dinners & played games at the large dining table. Every little detail of this property is perfect. Thank you Nanette, hopefully we can stay again soon.

Amazing Getaway
I honestly cannot express how beautiful this place is, we recently stayed for 2 nights and I wish we stayed for longer. We bought my people reactive 1 year old pup with us and the garden was so secure for him, we felt safe letting him run around. He also found an apple to eat and loved it. The bonus was we didn’t realise there was a games room, my family especially the kids that came along spent most of their time in there whilst the adults chilled in the main room. The bedrooms were perfect all with en-suites which made it even better. Nanette is a fantastic host, her communication from when we booked it until we got there was brilliant. She answered 100 questions of mine without getting annoyed and even made us a special cake. I honestly cannot recommend this place enough, we are even looking to book again for next year.

Great stay in comfortable and spaceous home
We are 2 families with 5 children between 9 and 19 years old and we stayed for 1 week in summer 2024. We had a great time staying at this home. The home is very well equipped. All kitchen utensils, dishwasher, washing machine and dryer, tv's, bathrooms you may need are there. Enough furniture and space for all to have a pleasant time together. The seperate game room was especially appreciated by both children and adults. We played air hockey, table tennis and table football, as well as some of the board games found in the game room. If we had any questions, the owner Nanette was quick to reply and always very friendly. The farm is ecologically friendly, uses no insecticides and produces edible flowers. We were allowed to have a look there, which I really enjoyed. I took picturesd with my SLR with macrolense, which was great. From the home we did dayrtrips trips to Dartmoore to walk, to the "Jurassic Coast" and to Exeter. The other days we stayed at the home. I cannot remember ever staying at a holiday home that was so welcoming, well equiped and had such a great atmosphere. I will recommend your home to everyone. We hope to come again some day. Kind regards, Pauline.

A group of friends stayed, but arrived at different times. The first to arrive was greeted, but when we, the booker, turned up and phoned to say we had arrived, I was told they would come around later. Unfortunately we did not meet the owner! When we rang for help with a problem, they did not reply to my phone message. The only time we saw the owner was when we were leaving. Otherwise the barn was all we expected and was very comfortable.

We are located in the heart of Devon with an abundance of local activities for young and old.
