It’s in a quiet spot in beautiful countryside, great for walking. We will definitely go back and recommend it to friends.

“Amazing barn in a top location!”

We had a wonderful stay here with everything we needed for cosy evenings in, fun walks on the doorstep, wildlife aplenty, hot tub under the stars.... the list goes on! Literally a fantastic little bolt hole. Lovely touches from Barry and Sarah which make it extra special. Thanks again, Dan, Clare, Dot, Rufus X

“Lovely converted barn 1/2 hour walk to Moretonhampstead.”

“We needed some quality time together and some r&r which is exactly what we had.”

Loved the location, the comfort, the size of the barn, the garden, the privacy. We didn’t have very kind weather so didn’t use the hot tub but it was great it was there. Barry and Sarah close by if we needed them but not at all intrusive. Loved the welcome tray on arrival. Wood burner was great and very easy to light.

“The Barn is Beautiful!”

The owners Sarah and Barry are very nice and extremely helpful and friendly. The Barn is situated in a remote spot in the Dartmoor National Park on the edge of a lovely village. The views from the Barn are beautiful and scenic. This really is a fantastic place to stay!!

“A great barn conversion, with loads of space, in a lovely part of the country.”

“Cottage is a converted barn and in a good location for exploring south Devon and Dartmoor national park as well as further afield.”

It’s a half hour walk from Mortonhampstead where there are at least three great pubs for evening meals - all of which are dog friendly. The cottage is set in a completely enclosed paddock so we didn’t worry about the dog wandering off at all. At night the view of the stars is amazing and we saw a wide variety of wildlife while we were there as well. The lack of Wi-Fi and mobile phone connection only served to make a relaxing week Sven more restful. The cottage is tastefully decorated and the welcome drinks tray with delicious shortbread and homemade jam and freshly laid eggs was a lovely touch. Each bedroom has its own en-suite and the kitchen is well stocked with enough utensils to help you cater for your holiday if you need it. And the hot tub made a lovely holiday a luxurious break! Thank you for making our holiday peaceful, interesting and a total joy.

“Barry and Sarah made our stay perfect with lovely touches of homemade shortbread and jam.”

The fresh eggs were lovely too. Our dogs loved the freedom of the massive garden and we loved the hot tub. We will definitely make a return visit as it was the best cottage that we've rented.

“Pet and child friendly, spacious and peaceful.”

A great place to stay to explore Devon, close to the village with plenty of pubs and shops and a good base to visit the area. The Barn feels secluded and peaceful with a huge garden to the rear which was ideal for our two springer spaniels and 16 month old little boy to run around safely. Lots of room inside with the open plan layout and two good sized bedrooms. Everything is well kept and in good condition. The owners were very friendly and close by next door, homemade shortbread and tea and coffee tray was a nice touch when we got there too. The hot tub was ideal after a day out walking. Our little boy left a piece of his train track behind which was kindly mailed back to our home address before we noticed it was missing. We started looking for another cottage in Devon for 2018 but decided not to bother and booked up again at Butterdon.

- Hodgson2974, January 2018

Thank you very much for your kind feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Butterdon Barn. What a lovely touch for the owners to have goodies ready for your arrival, and that they were able to return the missing piece of train track to you. We look forward to welcoming you back later in the year for another visit. Sykes owner relations

“Great Break in Devon”

Excellent secluded barn conversion at the end of a very narrow lane. Fantastic views over the moors. There is a hot tub at the side of the barn which Is of great benefit after wandering through woods and forests. The barn itself is large and open plan on the ground floor - kitchen facilities are good seating area is well laid out as well. Upstairs there are two large double bed rooms -- very comfy beds and linen, both bed rooms have good size en-suites. We walked into Moretonhampstead a few times across the field -- 30mins approx. the Union pub is very good the food is great - ate there a couple of times - good prices VFM. -- also try Berto's (Italian) opposite the Bell Inn - check opening times great little place. Overall nice place - great location - moorland views...

“Fantastic”

This is a fantastic barn conversion with lots of added luxuries. The hot tub was fantastic and we went in 4 nights out of 7 under the stars. Equally lovely was the wood burner which was all set up and ready to go. Huge comfy beds and gorgeous quilts the place was absolutely spotless. It is a lovely location close to dartmoor for lots of walking from as little or as much as you wanted. Sarah and Barry could not have been more helpful, you knew where they were if you wanted anything but was also given the privacy wanted. We will definitely be returning in the not to distance future and I would recommend this barn to anyone. Also The Union pub and Gateway Tearooms in Moretanhampstead where very dog friendly and the food was delicious, don't miss out !!
