Smart barn conversion. Perfect touring location, for beaches, moors & Cornwall

Delightful property set within farmland but only five miles from the city of Exeter. Far reaching views to Dartmoor and close to A30 for Cornwall. Wonderful touring destination for walkers and families with beaches half an hour away. High speed internet and all mod cons. Private courtyard garden and use of shared grounds. Perfect comfort at the end of a long day exploring the beautiful Westcountry

Really lovely barn conversion
We were really surprised at how lovely the barn conversion was. Although it is a little off the beaten track it is ideal for exploring the area so close to all the busy commute roads, It is so quiet in the countryside you can really chill. Would definitely recommend to others and hope to visit again

Great Stay
Our extended stay at The Barn was all we hoped it would be and an excellent reintroduction to life in the UK. Christine and Shaun are terrific hosts, aided and abetted by Tango the cat who loves his tickles and sheep who deserve a role in any remake of "The Great Escape"

A wonderful stay in a beautiful part of Devon
We were welcomed warmly with an umbrella in the dark and pouring rain as we arrived at the barn. That was so appreciated - thank you Christine! The accommodation was everything we had expected and we were very grateful for recommendations on things to do in the area. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Wonderful stay in the west country
My partner and I very much enjoyed staying on the Connor's property. It was ideal for us as we wanted to cook our own food and be self-sufficient. And when we needed supplies, there's plenty of supermarkets in the surrounding towns and villages. The property includes all the amenities of home, and the wifi worked well so definitely an option if you need to work remotely. We will certainly consider returning to Wayland Farm!

Lovely short break in rural Devon
We really enjoyed staying at this cottage. It really suited our young family. The cottage is spacious but also homely and has got everything that you may need. We were travelling with a toddler and the landlords even lent us a stair gate and a high chair, which was a life saver. The location is beautiful and very good to explore different areas of Devon. And our son also enjoyed watching the baby pig next door and the sheep at the top of the lane. Thank you Shaun and Christine for everything, we will be back soon hopefully.

Lovey property
We stayed for four nights as our daughter is at Exeter University and had a reading week. We were able to have some great days visiting the area and have a chilled out and relaxed time. Property was very nice in a great location and handy to get around. Would recommend to similar people or to anyone wanting to explore South Devon. Great Stay!

Lovely barn conversion
The property was very nice and as good as expected.Well equipped bar a dodgy can opener and a rather difficult ceramic hob for someone who has never used one. Peaceful location, close to a local pub and the only downside a barking dog early in the morning. The hostess responded immediately to any problems.
