Absolutely spot on with the description of the barn, couldn’t have asked for anything more. Barn was very clean. Communication with owner was good, I did have issue with oven and grill owner got back very quickly, but this was mainly on my part as didn’t read instructions properly. Overall fantastic stay would definitely stay again and recommend to family and friends. Good amount of toys for children, games, dvd’s. Lovely private garden with ample garden furniture and parasol Just a lovely relaxing stay. Thank you

From the moment we arrived on Saturday 26 June 2021 with the sun shining we were impressed with the property. Everything we could want was provided. Plenty of space and very comfortable bedrooms. The whole house has been very tastefully furnished. On Sunday it rained all day so a couple of us used the swimming pool and a couple had a game of pool.. The weather from there on was sunshine each day so we took several day trips, the location is ideal for touring. The garden, overlooking fields of sheep was a delight for relaxing with a BBQ and a glass of wine. The end of our week came too quickly and we were sad to leave.

Simple and straightforward, only affected by COVID restrictions.

We had a lovely family holiday at the property. It was great to have exclusive use of the pool and games room, under the present circumstances. It’s equipped to a high standard. The beds and pillows were really comfy. It was lovely to sit outside and just hear countryside noises. The property is very handily based for getting to the coast, Dartmoor and driving into Dorset.

Simple and straightforward, only affected by COVID restrictions.

First time in a number of years for a UK holiday. Was looking for a quiet but well placed base which I found with this property A stunning view with a super job done on the conversion of this barn, all the family really enjoyed this holiday and would recommend to any family looking for this type of holiday to give this a chance. A mixture of relaxation and days out gave this holiday a 5 star rating from our family Chris

This is a fantastic property. Everything looked very clean and superb on our arrival. The house is well stocked with everything you need. Because of covid restrictions the pool was limited to 1 hour a day time slot. Sometimes to late in the day for the little ones, but was still lovely to be able to use the pool and fully understand restrictions. The house is a little bit tricky to get to, through narrow lanes. But that is the only slight negative. I would definitely recommend this property and will definitely return. Thank you Louise.

A beautifully converted bard with everything one could need provided. The swimming pool and games room would be great for young families too

We adore this property! So homey but yet enough space for us all. Can be difficult to find (the directions provided though were spot on). Once you arrive you feel you’re in your own piece of hidden away paradise. The views are incredible and being able to sit outside with a bbq/fire pit was heavenly given that we’ve been cooped up in our flat! Thanks for having us, love to be back again in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay, Woodpecker Barn was exactly what we needed. A very tranquil setting in the countryside overlooking the farmland. It was 30-45 minutes from all the main places to visit in South Devon, so nothing was too far away. Local pubs and supermarkets 15 mins or less. The Barn was spacious and kitted out to a high standard. Having access to a pool and a playground on our doorstep was a bonus for our young kids. We’ll definitely look to book here again next year! spacious and clean.

Beautiful barn, very clean and well equipped. Perfect for our mini break - thank you!

We absolutely loved the cottage everything was provided I mean everything! Once we negotiated the Devon lanes we visited beaches , zoo ,Pub gardens for lunch it was relaxing once we found our bearings Our only disappointment was pool didn’t open owing to Covid but playground great for children can’t sing it’s praises high enough !!!

Lovely welcoming holiday home. House was very clean on arrival, extremely well equipped throughout - particularly the kitchen and also the large toy box a bonus for our 3 year old. Pool was excellent for rainy days (in Dec each time we used we were the only people). Garden and playground didn’t get much use due to the weather but also excellent. Location as expected (per owners info) as we are familiar with Devon country lanes but do take note that these are single track with high hedges and not a particularly smooth ride! Only other note is the bath is a short one so fine for bathing children but don’t expect an adult to have a relaxing soak - but the 2 power showers make up for it.

Well, I didn't expect this to be so excellent. It was a wonderful place to stay. All thought has been put into everything you'd want or need. Bonus of a warm swimming pool and ping pong next door to us. We all needed a break, and this place certainly provided that.

Woodpecker Barn has everything you need and more for a family holiday. The amount of toys, dvds, games etc was very impressive as well as a very well stocked kitchen. The property was much larger than it looked in the pictures. Would definitely recommend

Very comfortable,spacious property. High standard of decoration and facilities. Plenty of room for the 7 of us to spread out.

The barn was absolutely perfect for all ages of our family. So much thought has gone into providing comfort and entertainment for a perfect holiday home. Spotlessly clean, spacious, peaceful and equipped with everything you could possibly need. We will come again.

A very well equipped and comfortable cottage. We were a party of 7 ranging in age from 4 months to 85 years and the cottage suited us all. Games and videos for the 5 year old, pool toys in the pool, which was really enjoyed by the 5 year old, baby cribs for the baby and a couple of high chairs if we had needed them. Nice outdoor table and chairs although it wasn't warm enough for us to use them but we did put the barbecue to good use. The beds were comfortable as were the living room sofas. Lovely big dining table in the kitchen area. I don't think we lacked for any kitchen equipment although it took a few attempts to sort out how to work the hob and oven - even with the instruction manual! Louise responded quickly and fully to all emails and requests - she couldn't have been more helpful. The road to the cottage is down a very narrow lane, which was a new experience for our American son-in-law! There were sheep and cows in the neighboring fields - it was very peaceful particularly as many of the other cottages were not occupied. The large parking area is a short walk from the cottage. Highly recommended.

Having moved to Mallorca 15 years ago (from the UK), we all, (grandparents, parents and teenagers) fancied a Christmas in the UK for a change. We carefully chose Woodpecker Barn and were all thrilled. We arrived to a wonderfully warm, cosy and welcoming house - complete with christmas tree and decorations. The barn was very clean and very comfortable. Plenty of space for all, the lounge with log fire was wonderful in the evenings, all played games and watched movies together. The kitchen/dining room was super, and Christmas dinner - cooked beautifully, nothing more we could have wished for. All the family slept well and the bathrooms were modern and clean with plenty of piping hot water. The heated pool was fabulous. The location, set in wonderful countryside, sheep in the field next door greeted us each morning. Ipplepen village, and surrounding area very accessible. We all loved it, all had a super stay, safely back in Mallorca now, planning our next visit! many thanks

Nice clean and spacious accommodation. Lots of thoughtful touches such as wine and milk on arrival, dishwasher and washing tablets, loads of toys, books, games and dvds for the kids. Beds were comfy. Great on site facilities. It's just a shame we weren't there for longer really as there's so many places to explore in Devon. Thanks for having us.

We travelled down to Devon as a family for the wedding of our niece. The cottage was lovely and warm and cosy after outings in the very wet and windy November weekend !! The facilities are excellent and we felt instantly at home. The only problem was that the hot water ran out after 4 of us had showered on the morning of the wedding. The next day we worked out how to keep the water hot for more than 4 showers!! We also had a lovely meal on the Friday evening at the local pub, The Wellington Arms. The Saturday was the wedding and on Sunday we enjoyed a day in Torquay as the rain had subsided. We would definitely think about visiting again in the summer for a longer break. Thank you to the owners for a great place to stay.

Just the loveliest property with everything catered for and considered, you really could not ask for more. Immaculate and beautifully furnished and so much for the children to see and do. We had a perfect few days with our family and no-one was ready to go home and definitely want to visit again. We were very lucky with mostly fine weather but the pool, games room and outside play area was great to make use of where there was the odd spells of rain. Lots to recommend if you are looking for a peaceful location but with everything on your doorstep too.

We stayed here whilst visiting family in the local area and throughly enjoyed our stay. The barn itself is wonderful, with all of the amenities you'd expect and more! Would definitely look to stay here again the next time we visit family.

Despite the rain we had, this was such a lovely place to be. We were fortunate it was outside school holidays so had most of the outside facilities to ourselves. The cottage is magnificent, comfortable and spacious, very clean and tidy on arrival, wonderful views with the sheep in the fields, everything you could possibly think of bringing was there, down to dishwasher tablets and toilet rolls. Ideal for children, selection of toys, books, puzzles and dvds. The swimming pool, games room and little play area outside were an added bonus. Really handy spot to get to places too. Already recommended it to friends and my daughter and family want to go back again.

We had a lovely stay in the property, the pool and games room were great and the Barn itself had everything we needed for a family with 2 small children. The outside are and climbing frame were used a lot. will definitely be back.
