Mr McDermott
December 2020

“This was our 7th holiday with HH and our 3rd visit to this barn.”

This visit was a gift to my wife who asked to go back again for her birthday. This says alot about this barn and location, which is perfect for the local pub and exploring the devon coutryside plus coast line. The owners live next to the barn and are available if you have any questions or problems. I am sure this wont be our last visit to this barn,which is kitted out fully for a great self catering family holiday.

Mrs Gould August 2020

“Amazing spacious barn in countryside setting, would Highly recommend.”

The only downside was in the height of summer it can get very hot in lounge/kitchen area as little insulation in barn roof.

“Gorgeous home from home”

This place is a home from home. Perfect location for exploring the area and so cosy and warm to come back to after a day out. We didn't need to use the fire as the place is warm enough. Place is in a quiet location so you don't hear any traffic noise. The owners of the barn greeted us and lived in the farmhouse next to the barn if you had any issues. Would love to come again

Mr Rayment November 2019

“We had a fantastic two week holiday at Yondhill barn.”

It had everything we needed, it was clean, finished to a high standard and the hosts were very helpful if needed. The barn is also very child friendly which was perfect for our little 3. And there is a lovely pub at the end of the driveway :D Thank you both for a memorable family holiday.

Mrs Molloy October 2019

“This was a lovely barn, it was very comfortable and had everything we needed.”

The owners were very welcoming and helpful. There is also a pub 2 minutes walk away where we had a very good meal. We would definitely recommend it

“Absolutely perfect country-vacation property!!”

I have stayed in any number of rental properties while visiting various locations in the UK (some better than others). I will say that this property was absolutely perfect....and I don't say that lightly. The interior is stylish, totally updated, perfectly clean, and wonderfully functional. The kitchen was stocked with every pot, pan, and implement you would need to make a full meal. And it included a French Press for your coffee. Be certain to take a tour of the local countryside, as it is amazingly beautiful!! Local pub just up the lane if you want a break from cooking but don't want to drive.

Mrs George July 2019

“It's a fantastic barn a really lovely conversation with lots of character.”

It has good facilities including great showers. Location is good for getting out and about . I would recommend some form of signage on the little lane that leads to the barn as it was difficult to find first time. The owner is very welcoming and helpful and was very quick to arrange repair of the TV which had no reception due to an issue with the outside cables. We had a lovely week and would highly recommend this barn for anyone looking for a place in the area

Mr Mountford April 2019

“The cottage was ideal for us as it was fairly central in North Devon It gave us easy access to the moors for our walking plus the North coast also was easy to get to .”

This cottage was first class and we were more than pleased with our stay .

- Mr Mountford, April 2019
Mrs Halloran April 2019

“We had a lovely week long family holiday at Yonhill Barn.”

The hosts made us feel very welcome and were quick to install a baby gate for our little boy. The Barn is in a stunning place to stay, surrounded by the beautiful countryside with plenty of activities to take part in nearby. We would love to stay here again in the future.

“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.

“Heel sfeervolle en goed uitgeruste woning in een landelijke omgeving.”

Goede uitvalsbasis om veel dingen te bezoeken : de stad Exeter (kathedraal en oude huisjes), mooie, verrassende kusten ten noorden en ten zuiden, Jurassic Coast (zoeken naar fossielen), Lydford gorge (kloof met waterval), Dartmoor en Exmoor National Parks (pony's en schapen), vele natuurwandelingen, lekker uit eten. Het huis was tiptop in orde : mooie vernieuwde inrichting, heel netjes, goed uitgeruste keuken, 3 slaapkamers met elk aangrenzende moderne badkamer. We vonden het een schitterende week!

“Amazing”

Beautiful property in scenic grounds. Everything you could ever want and a definite home from home. Could someone please tell me which mattress is on the upstairs bed as I have never had such a good sleep?! Beautiful!

- Terrichudleigh, August 2017

Great to hear, thank you! We will certainly find out about the mattress for you asap :) Sykes owner relations

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.
