Super!

We were so excited to stay here and everything exceeded our expectations. It was a truly wonderful place to spend our Easter weekend. The weather was typically British but that didn’t hamper things as there’s so much fun to be had at the house. Owners were lovely. We hope to return one day.

We had three generations of a family staying and had an absolutely fantastic time. The property is every bit as good as you would imagine from the pictures and description; actually it’s better as so much care and thought has been put into the small details. Wonderful hosts. We’ll be back!

What a place to stay!!

The barn is even better than the pictures! What a place to stay. We had a group of 11 of us 6 adults and 5 kids. The pool is an amazing size and so nice to view from upstairs. The children spent most of their time in there.We made the most of staying in the barn and took advantage of all of what it had to offer. We had two food shops delivered and ventured out for walks and a horse ride over dartmoor.At home our lives are so busy, so it was nice to have time to chill out and enjoy time with the children. We made full use of the games room and pool. They also have a cupboard full of board games which was amazing. The grounds and countryside scenary is absolutely beautiful.Everything is well thought of even down to having enough untensils, and cutlery. Being provided with both bathroom and swimming towels. Sue and Rodger were amazing hosts, friendly, helpful and just generally lovely people.We will definitely be back and would highly recommend this beautiful place to stay.

Fantastic property, perfect for my birthday celebration with all the family. The property is so well appointed with great living area, garden and the icing on the cake is the wonderful pool and games room. The area is beautiful with lovely walks right on your door step. Lovely villages near by and the Cleave pub does a delicious roast. Such a find we will be back. Our hosts were so lovely and even left a birthday card for me. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Another magical stay

This was our second stay at the Barn at Lower Harton Farm. We had such a wonderful time last year and my children had been counting down the days (literally) until our return. We cannot say enough good things about it the property, the area, and our hosts Sue and Roger. Anything we needed, they were able to provide (to our door!) within minutes. We spend out days swimming in the pool, hiking across the beautiful moors, climbing Tors, and exploring the river valley. The only problem is that the week goes too quickly!

Perfect Dartmoor escape

We had a brilliant week at the Barn in October 2023, travelling as a multi-generational family including my children (4 and 6 years old) and my parents (in their 70s) - and our golden retriever who was welcomed most kindly. The property is a real gem - fabulous location to visit Lustleigh and other nearby villages, walk the moors, and just relax and enjoy the stunning views out of every window. The property has been very thoughtfully and intelligently designed by Roger and Sue, with comfortable furniture to relax, a games room to enjoy, and of course the enormous pool. The gardens and pond outside are beautiful. There was plenty of room for our group of 6 plus the pup. It's hard to say enough about what a fabulous week we had. Roger and Sue are nearby with any advice or help you may need, and when our arrival was delayed they even accepted our grocery delivery - and if that wasn't enough, they unpacked it and put away the perishable items as well! It was a week we will not soon forget and we are grateful to our hosts for welcoming us into this beautiful slice of Devon.

Amazing property and the best weekend

Me and my family stayed here for the weekend and we had the best time ever. The property was fantastic and really clean. Very high standards. Sue and Roger were absolute diamonds. They really went above and beyond with everything. They made sure our stay was as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The property has a huge swimming pool, exclusive to the property. It has a games room with a pool table and a table tennis table. It has plenty of shower rooms and toilets. Amazing location. Perfect for big families to relax and enjoy Dartmoor Devon. Thank you so much we really enjoyed ourselves. All the best.

Great get together house

We had a wonderful time, the pool is the icing on the cake, the grandchildren spent most of their stay in there, didn’t want to leave, the games room is great too. Roger & sue were great hosts, checked everything was ok with us, then gave us privacy to enjoy ourselves, we had a bbq & cooked in all weekend, everything was there that we needed, didn’t venture far, as wasn’t great weather, thankfully cleared when we left, as the lanes are very narrow, All the bedrooms & bathrooms & bathrooms were great, the bonus of changing rooms by the pool meant we didn’t have to walk through house wet & we left costumes there to use next time, would definitely love to return, I know the grandchildren definitely would 😄

Family wonderland

We planned this family holiday after covid had prevented us being together for such a long time and we wanted something special. We hit the jackpot. The venue is of the utmost quality and perfect for families to relax, play and laugh together. The fun was not dented when, for 48 hours, we had no electric or water thanks to Storm Franklin. Step up Sue and Roger; they ensured we were safe and able to continue our holiday providing us with everything we needed to carry on with our stay. They are the perfect hosts, keen to support their guests so you get the best from your holiday. Our family had so much fun, we created so many memories and stories that will last a lifetime. Thank you for making us so welcome.

An absolutely amazing property!

We had an absolutely fantastic half term break at The Barn! The accommodation was top notch! It was spacious, well equipped, spotlessly clean, incredibly comfortable with many spaces to sit and relax. The weather wasn't great but it didn't really matter as we didn't want to leave to house once we saw the stunning swimming pool with spacious changing rooms which was for our private use. The games room was amazing and great fun. The outdoor space was beautiful and we enjoyed some walks across the fields with our dog who was made very welcome. It was absolutely perfect in all areas. We'll be back!!!

Fantastic house with the best heated pool ever!

We had a lovely family break here. The house was everything we hoped it would be. The highlight of our stay was the extra large heated pool and games room - especially as it was raining throughout our stay. The landscapes were breathtaking. The lanes to get to the property were a little tricky, but this wouldn't stop me from returning. We organised for a chef to cook us a meal for a special occasion, and have given the owners the details. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. I would definitely like to come back to stay here.
