    Accommodation was warm and comfortable for all our needs. Easy to get to and good for links to all parts of Devon. Nice and peaceful, good wifi, only downside was no network service. Tried the local pub for a meal and was not disappointed with the quality of the food. Would we stay here again, of course we would. many thanks to the hospitality given by he owners.

  • "Thank you for such a warm welcome, the yummy biscuits went down very well."

    The barn was spotless, well equipped and very cosy. Loved waking up to birds singing, watching all the starts on a night and listening to the owls. 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. All in all a very lovely holiday in a cracking part of the country. thank you for letting us stay :-)

    The bath with shower over was a bit of a problem to negotiate for any one with arthritis in the knee .I think that should be mentioned but other than that was a lovely place to stay .we only meet Julie once but she was friendly and welcoming .

  • "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.

    The Barn is in a beautiful setting in the countryside, with the opportunity to have a walk around the farm and the most wonderful wooded area and stream, my boys were in their element. The Barn itself is very comfortable, quiet and with everything you need for a stay. It is also one of the cleanest places we have ever stayed, everything was gleaming when we arrived! Would highly recommend anyone to stay here, we enjoyed so much we have booked again for Easter!!

  • "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.

    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.

The property

Luton 1 mile.

This attractive barn conversion is attached to the owner’s farmhouse on their 100 acre Devon farm in a rural village close to the beaches of Teignmouth and Shaldon.

This is an ideal cottage for couples, friends or families, with woodland play areas with swings and a fort and a quiet countryside setting, and is set amongst green meadows.

Guests are welcome to wander the farm to explore woodland paths, ripe apple orchards, friendly duck ponds and fields where hens, sheep and cows graze happily.

This attractive cottage has a spacious, open plan living area, which looks out across an attractive courtyard through two large arched windows which give a sense of light and space ensuring that families can relax together, cook together and eat together at all times.

The charming bedrooms have TVs and views across to the fields and hills.

There is a patio garden at the front of the cottage ideal for sun worshipping and enjoying the countryside views.

Just a mile down the road is the friendly village pub, The Elizabethan, which won a Taste of the West award in 2015 and has its very own Gelato ice cream maker!

The cottage is just 3.5 miles from Teignmouth, a popular seaside town with plenty of shops, pubs and restaurants as well as the beach, harbour and handsome pier.

There are many family activities to enjoy as well, including an outdoor swimming pool, skatepark, adventure golf and two miles of sandy beaches.

Wander along the splendid promenade to the working port on the river side of town, where you will see plenty of ships coming and going in this fast-flowing estuary current.

Looking across the River Teign you can see the charming small regency town of Shaldon, home to the Shaldon Wildlife Trust's breeding centre for rare mammals, along with the well-known beach at Ness Cove, reached through a genuine smugglers' tunnel.

Down the coast is the English Riviera, with its micro-climate, tall palm trees, well laid-out municipal gardens and large promenade, lined with ice cream shops and cafes.

Torquay is the birthplace of Agatha Christie and so there are plenty of historic reminders of the author, plus this seaside town also provided the inspiration for the classic British comedy Fawlty Towers.

Paignton, which has a fabulous zoo and a steam train taking you to the River Dart, is also another day's outing.

There’s plenty to see and do whilst staying at this charming cottage.
