Had a wonderful stay. House was so cosy and had all the amenities we needed including a washer dryer which came in handy after long dog walks. The owner left a lovely packet of biccies for us and also some dog treats and towel. Only thing I would say is that the beds were a little on the hard side, perhaps a mattress topper could make the difference. Overall had a great stay.

A beautiful barn conversion in a gorgeous countryside setting. Very homely and cosy. I can’t fault it! Lovely owners, very friendly and welcoming. The garden area was lovely and you could see the farm animals. The secure field opposite the barn was brilliant and perfect for the pooches. The coastal walk on the doorstep of the barn was great and had amazing views. The sunset there was surreal. Would definitely recommend and we’ll be visiting again!

Hendra Barn was everything we'd hoped for, it was simply magical!It had everything we could ever have hoped for, plus a charm that we'd never encountered before, the setting, the surrounding area, it was simply perfect! We also got to celebrate our daughters 20th birthday in the barn, which was decorated accordingly. We even had a new family of Swifts, where we were able to encounter the babies first flight's, all magical!! We quite simply can't wait to return!!!

Our stay was great, however we had issues with getting hot water in the showers. Everything else was wonderful! Perhaps being Canadian we did not understand the system properly.

A peaceful retreat

The property is located on a working farm, in some ways reminiscent of Italian agriturismo. The listing is accurate and the property is excellently presented. A car is essential and the location is perfect for a relaxing getaway. The only very minor drawback which is in no way the fault of the owners is the road leading over towards the property is very narrow and passing oncoming vehicles can sometimes be a bit tricky. All in all I thoroughly recommend a stay.

Perfect NY stay

Beautifully cosy and clean stay. Great location for beaches, pubs, walks, cycle trail. Coast 30 mins walk (we did it with 2 kids on a very wet and windy day). Enclosed garden for the dog and kids overlooking the farm. Great communication with the host and checked we were settled in. Really comfy beds, lovely showers and floor fire. Kids loved being able to see the animals from the window. Perfect perfect stay - thank you

Home from home

This is a beautiful location. The cottage itself is spotlessly clean and cosy with everything you need. Plenty of room for a family of 4. If you’re after a peaceful spot this is perfect. Only a very short drive to Port Isaac. We would love to come back again next year for a longer stay. Hosts are also extremely friendly :-) Thanks so much for having us.

We had a nice week in this cosy converted barn. Port Isaac, Padstow and surround area are in easy reach and its nice to come back from day trips to a warm fire and relaxing environment. Place was in good condition and we had a very pleasant stay with our dog enjoying it as well.

Beautiful Farm Holiday

This is a beautiful place to spend a relaxing time in the country. You are away from the busy tourist areas yet they are in easy reach by car. We stayed in the barn which is very spacious and well equipped. It was perfect for our ourselves and our two adult sons. The Seaview farm shop just up the road had most of the groceries we needed for our stay and is a great place to have a drink and admire the views. Coming from Australia, we found the narrow Cornish roads quite challenging but that's all part of the experience. Natalie was lovely and a wonderful host. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hendra Farm and would love to spend more time there if we are in the UK again. Thanks Natalie and team.

Lovely accommodation staying at Hendra Barn everything and more that you need for your stay.

Great quiet location, very clean and welcoming, easy check in, friendly owners we will definitely be back and would highly recommend this accommodation. Lots of lovely beaches nearest ones are within a 10-15 minute drive, 5 minutes from a fab farm shop/cafe/play area. 15 mins from Wadebridge loads of shops, restaurants etc, we didn’t get chance to visit local pubs to eat but are a short drive from the property, we ate out further a field or BBQ’d on the beach. We loved our stay here and cannot fault it. Thank you very much for a perfect week.

Relaxing base to explore the area

Angela & Phil are very welcoming. Stayed in Hendra Barn which was well equipped with everything you need, giving a home from home feel. The farm is secluded but very accessible to visit all that North Devon offers. The coastal path to Port Isaac is just across the road if you are able bodied and like the challenge of a difficult walk! I would not hesitate to book again and can highly recommend this accommodation.

Excellent location and property

We stayed at higher Hendre cottages for 5 nights and had a great time. Cottage was spotless and gave the feel of home away from home. It is perfectly situated for day trips to Boscastle, Tintagel, Port Isaac etc. Phil and Angela were great host too. We would definitely recommend this cottage and can’t wait enough to go back.
