“This was our second visit to yondhill barn.”

The first time was two years ago when the new owners Adrian and Darrell took ownership. I can honestly say this experience was just has good. The barn was super clean with nothing out of place. The kitchen is fully equipped for a good size family or group of friends. Two of the bedrooms had double beds with the family bedroom now having a double bed plus two single beds. We found all the beds very comfortable and the sheets clean and fresh. All the bathrooms very clean and modern with very good water pressure for the showers. During our stay we didnot light the log burner, due to the barn being very warm with just the heating on,which was nice. The barn is 5 to 10 minute walk from the new inn pub that served good pub food. (Tip if you want Sunday lunch you would be advised to book in advance) This barn does not have a wet/dog room. Our dog one day got really muddy so we washed her outside in the rain with a bucket then dried her with a hair dryer. It was worth doing, so that the barn does not get marked or damaged which is a good thing. The barn does have a DVD player but is not blue ray, so don't do like we did and bring blue ray and then find they don't work ha ha. Over all this is a great place to stay with great and warm owners. I would recommend this place to anyone and I am sure we will be back for our third visit very soon.

“We found the stairs going down to the bedrooms were on the slippery side as our daughter did fall down them, I think they could do some grip on them.”

This is no detriment to the cottage but we feel you needed to know this.

“Excellent very modern conversion in lovely surroundings”

Once you'd found it (satnav took us to the next village!) it was hard to find fault with this beautifully converted barn with superb accommodation and all mods cons. - including wifi for the children! It had everything you could wish for, with a very well equipped kitchen and laundry facilities. The only small criticism is that there's only comfortable lounge seating for six - any more would have to use the hard kitchen chairs - or the floor.

“If I could give 11/10 for Yondhill Barn I would!”

! Extremely high quality barn in every way, luxurious kitchen with everything you could possibly want, comfy beds, 3 bathrooms all with excellent showers, perfect position to explore Devon, situated in a very pretty village. Dog friendly too! Very welcoming owners. Very highly recommended!!

“This was our second holiday at Yondhill Barn.”

It's a really comfortable place to stay with easy access for anyone less mobile and a great location with lots of places to visit nearby. We hope to be back again!

“Amazing place to stay, very central to many attractions and places to visit.”

Very clean with comfy sofa's and beds. Kitchen well equipt with quality products. Quality showers and never had problem with hot water. We could not fault our stay and would not hesitate in booking again.

“Lovely comfortable beds and really really nice bed linen.”

Very quiet and peaceful . Garden chairs really comfortable.

“Beautiful, clean and spacious holiday home.”

Has everything you could need. Kitchen is well stocked with everything to enable you to cook meals and if cookings not on the menu the local pub does fantastic food and has regular offers! Central to everything Devon has to offer, not too far from any beach or countryside walk. Barn itself was so spacious and beautifully decorated we felt we could stay in and relax most days. The BBQ was a good addition to use one hot evening and my 4 year old loved the open space and garden. Would definitely stay again no hesitation!!!

“Yondhill Barn exceeded our expectations.”

Booking a holiday with Sykes is not as easy as booking a holiday with Helpful Holidays. I preferred the £100 refundable breakage deposit to having to take out insurance with Sykes and hoping that the insurance company will cover any breakages.

“Youndhill Barn is a lovely property, the pictures do not do it justice.”

The owners were unobtrusive but on hand if necessary. The property is very warm and really well equipped. It was very easy to find with only a little bit of country driving. Although we did not get mobile phone reception unless outside the property, the Wi-Fi was very useful. The property has very comfortable beds and fantastic showers. It is in a very central location to explore all of Devon and there is so much to see.

The property

This cottage converted from a split level barn is situated, together with a farmhouse, down a private track on the edge of Sampford Courtenay.

Beautifully designed with modern style, it is wonderful rural idyll for friends or family.

Steps take you up into your open plan living space, all relaxing with calm colours, with a comfy seating area with wood burning stove at one end and a kitchen area with dining space at the other.

On the ground floor you have a handy double bedroom with its en suite, or head on down the stairs to two more bedrooms.

Outside you can soak up the sun on the lawn amid pretty garden terraces or eat on the quiet terrace which looks over the fields and village.

This is one of the loveliest villages in Devon, where you can while away the hours in the popular village inn.

Maybe fish for your catch of the day in a local river, or head to the open slopes of Dartmoor for great walking.

The bustling town of Okehampton has all you need in the shape of shops, restaurants and a cinema and leisure centre.

Centrally located for exploring Devon, Yondhill Barn is a peaceful base in lovely countryside.

About the location

SAMPFORD COURTENAY

Okehampton 2.5 miles.

Midway between Sampford Courtenay, a sleepy but picturesque Devon village, and Okehampton, a thriving community known as ‘the gateway to the moor’. The whole area is a country lover’s dream. The high tors of northern Dartmoor dominate the scenery and provide a splendid backdrop to Okehampton nestling in a valley where tumbling moorland rivers join before heading to the sea. For miles around, the area is famous for its country pubs that between them provide welcome rest after a day exploring the paths, cycle ways and stunning countryside. On a clear day the view from the top of High Willhays (the highest point south of the Pennines) will take your breath away. Country pursuits and crafts are a way of life and a trip to the Dartmoor Visitor Centre and country museum in Okehampton are musts. Look also at the pretty moorland villages of Chagford, Belstone and Sticklepath to savour a way of life that’s becoming increasingly rare.
