"We had a lovely stay at The Linhay."
The property has been well looked after. It has everything you need for your stay. The hot tub is a perfect addition. The owners are very friendly. We received a lovely cream tea when we arrived.

"When we arrived, our first view was of two large derelict barns, and this was our view from bedroom two."
The beds were terribly unclean, all eight pillows were heavy soiled, the bed quilt was also soiled as was the mattress protector, the mattress also was heavily stained… Briony did respond to our text message, replacing 4 pillows with new, this was late afternoon, by then we had washed and dried, the bed quilt, mattress protector and the two pillows … The bed framework had split away from the bed leg and gave way Wednesday night, we moved into the two single beds for the remainder of the night… we decided to leave the property Thursday, as the disruption of a bed changeover would be two much for us. We did text Briony regarding the bed collapsing and she did respond in the afternoon, by that time, we was on our way home.. Your description of the property doesn’t match what we saw, the photograph of some of the views did not exist. We would appreciate a refund of three days, because of losing a day washing, and two days not sleeping there. Ps. Your company did not inform us of the 300 yards approach to the property. The poorly maintained road, singletrack, not good! This is the first time we feel let down by yourselves, hence the low, scoring of 5. It is this particular property, we could not recommend.
I am sad to receive this feedback as we have always had excellent reviews, particularly with respect to cleanliness. Subsequent guests have gone out of their way to tell me that they completely disagree with this assessment of The Linhay. I have no idea how the bed became damaged and broken, but did provide the refund for the lost days (despite being advised that it wasn't necessary to do so). I believe that it is common practice with management companies to include a few photographs of the general area and the views from the property itself are truly lovely; I feel blessed to live here and I am sorry that you couldn't appreciate them yourselves. I do wonder whether, if potholes in the council roads and barns in the farmyard are negative points, a break on any Devon farm is the right choice in the future. Best regards, Briony.

"The lodge was absolutely perfect, clean and very well equipped."
Briony (the owner) was lovely and very helpful.
The only draw back for us was the location. Not only is there the listed single track road to acces the farm but there is also miles of winding narrow county roads with very few passing spots to get to Tiverton. Yet saying that if your happy to not go out much then its perfect.

"The linhay was a wonderful place to stay."
Very modern and clean and generally a lovely environment. The host was great as she was available but not intrusive. It is very remote which is lovely for the peace and quiet and the clear starry nights. Unless you’re going out for a walk then you do have to get in the car to go anywhere but we didn’t mind this. We would definitely stay here again.
