A stunning property, beautiful location and wonderful hosts. The Barn is a dream come true for a UK holiday, so spoilt with this property, location and facilities. Thereā€™s nothing not to like. And the hosts are wonderful.

Fantastic property
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.

Beautiful property
We had a lovely relaxing week in this beautiful barn. Thee were 10 of us altogether and there was loads of space. We used the pool at least twice a day. Roger and Sue were the perfect hosts, checking in and helping out when needed. I would thoroughly recommend this as the perfect holiday retreat set in beautiful countryside.

What a fantastic week with all the family. Bedrooms and bathrooms were top quality and so comfortable. The star of the week was the large swimming pool and games room loved by us all . Thank you to Sue and Roger perfect hosts were so helpful and our dog Dexter loved playing with their dog Barker. We were all so relaxed in peaceful surroundings would definitely love to go back .

Such an amazing holiday we were very sad to leave
Beautiful holiday home set in almost untouched stunning surroundings, fantastic views and lovely garden. This has by far been the best family holiday we have had and to have such great hosts where nothing is too much trouble really made it a home away from home. The pictures really don't do this place justice, the apartment is huge and very well appointed with everything you would ever need, and the pool is simply amazing. Thanks again Sue & Roger we hope to be seeing you again soon, Andy, Mandy & Kids

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, didnā€™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, didnā€™t venture far, as wasnā€™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 didnā€™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 šŸ˜„

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!!!

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

Fantastic property for a relaxing break with family and friends.
We booked this property several months prior to our trip and from the very beginning, we had excellent communication from the owners. They were able to answer all of our questions and offered some tips for days out. We were two families of 4 with children aged 8, 9, 10 and 12. Arrival was excellent where we were shown around and given a guided tour of the property. The property was fantastic. Very clean, spacious and well equipped. The pictures do not do it justice!! It really is fabulous! Using the property as our base, we made trips to the Winter Wonderland at Exeter, the Panto at Torquay and lunch in Dartmouth. We also visited a food market at Newton Abbot, plus The House of Marbles museum. This property was a fantastic base for us all. Most of our time was spent around the pool and games room. We would love to visit again in the future as we had such a splendid time.

Amazing!
We had a wonderful time staying in The Barn. Everything about it exceeded our expectations. Both Sue and Roger were extremely helpful and close by to answer any questions during our stay. The views are stunning and the pool amazing, we had so much fun. Our son loved feeding the fish in the pond twice a day! We were really lucky to have fantastic weather all week and so took advantage of the gas BBQ most evenings. We will definitely be returning!
