“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.

“Our third visit to Butterdon Barn, we love the place and will definitely return.”

- Mr Freeman, May 2019
“The location was perfect for us as we like to be fairly remote when we go away in the UK.”

The cottage was lovely and had everything we wanted and with the garden being secure it was perfect for the dog. There was also loads of information about walks in the area which was very helpful.

- Miss Godsall, April 2019
“The whole holiday from start to finish was perfect, lovely welcome as always from Sarah and Barry the hosts.”

The eggs, jam and home made shortbread were lovely touches as was the milk in the fridge. The barn was very clean and lovely to stay in. Will definitely be back next year. And would strongly recommend helpfully holidays/ Sykes holidays.

“The views were amazing at butterdon cottage.”

We would recommend to anyone that wants to visit Dartmoor.

- Mr Barnes, November 2018
“We thought this was a fantastic cottage, one of the best we have stayed in.”

The parking area, size of the garden, the position, the cottage itself and things like the hot tub and ensuites were super. Only one small negative is the road from Moretonhampstead to the cottage, not for the inexperienced driver or faint hearted! A challenge each time we used it. Great owners who were very friendly but also allowed us our privacy.

- Mr Betts, October 2018
“Quiet, peaceful holiday , with caring hosts who look after everything you need”

The property

This detached cottage is situated in beautiful Devon countryside and you can enjoy the views to Dartmoor from the comfort of the cottage.

Converted from an ancient barn, it comes complete with private hot tub where you can relax and listen to the birdsong.

Inside, the cottage is smart and comfy with an open plan living space with cosy wood burning stove, well equipped kitchen and dining area.

Snugly situated upstairs under the eaves are the two bedrooms with generous sized beds and the added luxury of both having an en suite bathroom or shower room.

Outside is a relaxing south-west facing patio and enclosed, private lawn garden with picnic table and barbecue.

This is a wonderful base for walking surrounding footpaths, chilling out in the hot tub, gazing at the view or visiting the local town of Moretonhampstead, the gateway to Dartmoor with its shops, pubs, and outdoor pool, leading onto one of the most beautiful areas of Dartmoor.

For city amenities, the cathedral city of Exeter is just 13 miles away.
