    It is beautifully maintained, well equipped and immaculate. Lovely location, with an easy drive into Okehampton, and beautiful woodland walks right on the doorstep. Beds were comfortable and we had a great nights sleep too. Would definitely recommend.

  • "This is a really lovely, clean, warm comfortable little barn to stay in."

    Really near all the good places, sadly we only stayed for 3 nights but would definitely come back and stay here again. It was like being given a big hug!!!! Could do with an outside bench and table to sit on in the summer as the garden is really pretty and needs to be appreciated.

    Hi Nikki Thankyou for the great feedback. We do have a bench and table and chairs, but as it had been so wet we brought them in! Property Owner

    The place is warm and clean and has everything you need. I really enjoyed my stay here and would definitely stay again

  • "Needs a nest of tables."

    Fridge was too close to the boiler. Bathroom door is squeaky. Microwave too low down. Bath was very difficult to get into when you are in your 60s/70s, so why not have a walk-in shower?

    Hello Kevin. Thankyou for your feedback. We have now invested in a nest of tables. I have also investigated the door. Linda Property Owner

    Very comfortable beds . Our dog Bella thoroughly enjoyed her stay and the little garden was ideal for her and fully enclosed. The woods were great for her walks with sticks being her favourite she was spoilt for choice. Would definitely recommend this cosy homely cottage .

    Ben and Linda are delightful and we had a few nice chats with Ben over the week and I learnt a bit more about dairy farming! We both enjoyed the holiday and really appreciated being able to take our persian cat as well. Many thanks and hopefully will return in the future.

    Cottage is beautiful and had everything we needed for our stay and the bed was so comfortable. As the garden is fenced all round it was very safe for our dog to wander around. We really didn’t want to leave. It deserves more than a five star review Tina, Steve and Tia the dog

  • "Very cosy and comfy barn conversion."

    Ideally located for Dartmoor, and Cornwall, where we popped over to during our stay. Okehampton can be reached on foot via the woods round the corner. Castle is definately worth a visit. So much to see and do on Dartmoor. A bit of info on Lydford Gorge. Land slips have restricted the best parts of the Gorge for the forseeable future. (As at 06/24). Best check before you go. Nice to meet Linda and her dad, Ben. Very friendly. I recommend the Barn. And don't forget to star gaze through the bedroom windows. Superb!

    It was warm and cosy on arrival and we had all that we needed, plus plenty of space for the two of us and our large dog to be comfortable for the week. The location is great! Peaceful, tranquil, away from it all... yet handy for local shopping and easy access to Dartmoor and its many attractions. Highly recommended!

  • "Very nice small barn conversion with everything you needed."

    Lovely welcome pack to start the holiday off. Enclosed yard was perfect for our dog, as were the walks just minutes away in the woods and down to the river for a swim. Rural location was easy to find and far enough away from the town to be very quiet and dark at night, great for star gazing. Mountain biking in the woods was also a treat and loads of trails to choose from. Would definitely stay again.

    Thankyou Paul, Amanda and family for your feedback. We look forward to welcoming you back. Property Owner

The property

Okehampton 2.8 miles.

Set just a short distance from the amenities of Okehampton, on the northern fringe of Dartmoor, is this inviting, two-bedroom cottage, Northwood Barn.

Surrounded by glorious countryside with ample off-road parking, Northwood Barn provides an ideal base for two couples or a family seeking an escape to rural Devon.

Enter through the stable door into the open-plan living space, where the head chef can take over the kitchen and rustle up something good, before gathering around the dining table to enjoy a leisurely meal.

Spend your down-time in the lounge, curling up on the sofa and browsing the Smart TV for something to watch.

Escape to the enclosed garden and relax on the patio furniture, enjoy a favourite tipple after a long day, or get the barbecue going for a grilled dinner.

When sleep calls, the upstairs plays host to two double bedrooms, one with Smart TV, served by a bathroom with choice of bath or shower over.

The market town of Okehampton is a short drive away and offers a host of supermarkets and eateries, including several traditional pubs, perfect for when you don’t fancy cooking.

Explore the ruins of Okehampton Castle, a prominent landmark and testament to the town’s medieval past, or explore several galleries and workshops that celebrate the creativity of local artists. Relax in beautiful Simmons Park in the centre of the town featuring a children's play area as well as woodland walkways and riverside paths.

The spectacular Dartmoor National Park is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts; join the Tarka Trail for unspoiled countryside and local wildlife, including the iconic Dartmoor ponies or wander along the old railway to Meldon reservoir and enjoy stunning vistas.

If it’s a day on the coast you fancy, Devon and Cornwall’s bustling resorts are a short drive away, including beautiful beaches and plenty of watersport activities, whilst the city of Exeter offers a welcome change of scenery, boasting a thriving shopping scene.

All this and more awaits at Northwood Barn.
