"The barn was comfy enough, nice welcome package, goog cooking facilities and tableware."
Upstairs clean, comfy but the floor left you feeling a bit like vertigo, but it is a barn conversion. Bedside tables could do with someting to level them up as things tend to roll off and PLEASE lower the bathroom door lock as only 4ft 11" tall & couldn't reach. Overall it was a pleasant stay with surrounding areas easy to get to for shopping and sight seeing. Would stay again :)

It is very rural though , you have to drive everywhere and the lanes are all single so it’s a bit nerve racking sometimes. We found it impossible to walk to the nearest pub as it was too far and with the single tracks did not feel safe.

"The Cider Barn is a fabulous cottage, attached to the owners' property one side and to another holiday home the other side."
It feels quiet and not overlooked and the thick stone walls mean that it is very quiet. The cottage is so quaint and has all the amenities you'd need, indeed most things seem brand new. It was really useful having the washing machine/dryer as the weather wasn't kind to us. We were there a week and the whole time we felt relaxed and happy. The local pub is an easy 20 minute walk and serves excellent food. We liked how easy it was to get to the place from the motorway/major roads and then the simplicity of travelling to the local beaches. We would have liked a folder of the local beaches, where to park, etc as we didn't know the local area. That said, Julie and Phil were great hosts with advice, when we asked them. We liked the fact that there was plenty of space for the 4 of us - wardrobes and drawers in both bedrooms, plenty of space in the kitchen area and it was lovely to be able to 'move in' for the week and not live out of suitcases, which you have to do with smaller apartments. The cottage does not have a grass area - just the picnic bench area shown on the photos but you can roam the farm and there is a swing/slide area. Overall, we were delighted with the accommodation, the area and facilities nearby. A great place for a week of relaxation and sunshine. The kids are pleading for us to rebook for next year!

It is an excellent base, with lots of lovely places to explore ( the leaflet draw was well used - thank you) We enjoyed hopping on and off the train too.

"The Cider Barn is very comfortable and well laid out."
The facilities were very good, Julie and Phil seem to have thought of everything to welcome us and make our stay memorable. We had torrential rain most of the week and so we were limited as to where to go. We had planned on going to the local nature reserves but Dawlish in particular, was affected by flooding. We would highly recommend Shaldon Zoo - rare breeds. The staff are very helpful and the highlight was seeing the Margay and her kitten. Powderham Castle is a must if you have children. Jan & Co.

"Julie and Phil, the owners, were welcoming and helpful."
We settled into this quiet and remote part of Devon very quickly and enjoyed a relaxing two week October stay. The property is on a narrow lane with almost no passing traffic and suffers with little or no light or noise pollution. Peaceful, as we like it. Broadband wifi is available but due to bandwidth limitations is very unreliable including for catch-up TV. Probably not unusual in a location like this but a nuisance if you rely on the internet whilst away. We were mostly without a Vodafone signal too. Internet and phone connections apart we had a great stay and highly recommend the Cider Barn.

"This has to be one of the best cottages we have stayed in."
The cottage was beautiful, clean and cosy with everything needed for a stay. The outside space with table and chairs would be lovely in the summer and parking was good. The owner's were welcoming and friendly without being intrusive even going as far as to phone us to say that the main road was closed due to an accident but to ignore the signs because the accident was beyond the entrance to the cottage. We hope to return. We are used to one lane roads but a warning in the info of the one lane road with bends leading from the main road to the cottage might be helpful to someone who isn't aware of how they work and what to do if you meet someone coming the opposite way.
