First class property, superbly equipped. The information provided in advance was also great and as good as we have seen for a long time.The family also enjoyed the pool and the children's play area.Our only disappointment was that there were no footpaths local to the property that we could use for a walk, but that is not a fault with the property.We would recommend the property without reservation.

We chose to stay at Woodpecker Barn when we flew over from the States, primarily because of its proximity to my parent’s house in a neighboring village. We wanted peace, tranquillity and somewhere to unwind as we were dealing with my Dad’s illness. Woodpecker Barn delivered SO much more than just a place to stay. Despite the circumstances, we ended up thoroughly enjoying our time in the beautiful Devon countryside setting. Waking up each morning, having coffee watching the light break over the misty fields and nothing but the faint sound of sheep bleating, and a gentle rumbling of a passing train.Absolute heaven. The barn itself was SO well maintained, organized and fully equipped. The layout worked so well for our family, having young children, we could cook whilst they played happily in the open downstairs level. The facilities on site were also such a wonderful addition especially for keeping children entertained. My son didn’t want to leave the park most days. I’m very grateful to the lovely host Louise who was very accommodating, communicative and supportive during our stay. We’ll be coming back again for sure. Thank you

Woodpecker Barn is spacious with three large double bedrooms and plenty of living space. Lovely area and outlook across the fields. The play area and games room for all aged children plus the indoor pool was enjoyed. Louise was helpful and everything ran very smoothly. Would highly recommend and would stay again if in the area.

Woodpecker Barn was amazing perfect for our family with young children. Well equipped and beautifully decorated. private fenced garden was a plus. Good Location to get to places but you have to be ok with very narrow lanes as there are lots of them . Would definitely recommend

A wonderful accommodation in a small development of converted barns. The barn is pristine, beautifully decorated and furnished and has everything a family would need for a holiday. Stair gates , travel cots and a high chair are provided along with a range of indoor and out door toys and games. The garden is private and fenced so very safe for children. The on-site swimming pool, playground and games room are great for keeping everyone entertained. The views from the barn are amazing and our grandchild was delighted to see the sheep and cows in the adjacent fields. A delightful accommodation that we hope to visit again.

6.0 / 10.0

Pros - the barn is comfy, well equipped, warm and was well set up for us staying with friends and children (toys, potty, toddler cutlery and plates, 2 high chairs set up as we'd requested). We also enjoyed the games room Cons - one big negative was that the pool had a mechanical fault during our stay, so it was very cold when we did go in, and then closed for the rest of our stay. We were disappointed as we'd especially looked for places with a pool for our January stay, to entertain the little ones when it rained (which it did, a lot!)

This is a fantastic place to stay - spotlessly clean and well equipped with everything you might need. The accommodation was perfect for the four adults and two young children. The kitchen and living room are both large and well appointed. There is a swimming pool and games room which were great if you want to spend some time on site. It is a perfect location if you are visiting South Devon, Totnes, Torquay, Slapton Sands, Newton Abbott all within easy reach. Dartmoor National Park is well worth visting . The Cathedral City of Exeter is 25 miles away. We visited both Paignton Zoo and Pennywell Farm which are great childrens attractions I would highly recommend this property for a family stay in Devon.

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

Superb Location

Superb Location

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.

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.

Excellent UK Vacation

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

Fantastic property.

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.

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.

Fantastic holiday

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.

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.

Lovely barn!

Lovely barn!

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.

Wonderful stay in beautiful house

Wonderful stay in beautiful house

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.

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.

Woodpecker barn was the perfect location for our visit to Totnes! It lacked nothing, was extremely comfortable and we didn't want to leave! Every thought has gone into the detail from the toy box to the fully equipped kitchen! Highlights included sitting outside in the sunny garden watching the sheep and taking our 3 month old granddaughter swimming for the first time. The beautiful clean pool is a real bonus , the building very warm and water temperature perfect. The bedrooms were spacious and beds very comfortable and all in all we lacked absolutely nothing! Google maps recognised the barn and that together with the directions sent, meant there were no hiccups finding it for the first time. I really hope we can return soon but for longer next time . Thankyou Louise for providing such luxury and detail . Maggie Smith

I stayed in Woodpecker Barn with my 3 children (12,11 & 2) and my parents. The barn was very well equipped esp for the 2 year old and the pool and playroom were massive hits with the older kids. The outdoor areas are fantastic too and the house has everything you need and is beautifully decorated throughout.
