Region: Devon, with its quiet country lanes, patchwork of lush green fields and sleepy villages is not to be missed. Stately home lovers will be spoiled and why not finish with a scrumptious Devonshire cream tea?

Town: Beer is a small picturesque fishing village on the south Devon coast near Seaton. The shingle beach is very sheltered, backed by limestone cliffs and was once fertile smuggling territory, plus contraband was hidden in nearby caves, which are now a popular tourist attraction

We had a fabulous stay at the Barn. It was located in a stunning setting and was even more beautiful than the photos. The Barn itself was lovely and super clean. It worked really well for our multi generational family with plenty for the kids to do. They particularly loved the table football and hot tub. We visited Lyme and Beer when we were there which were both lovely and had a great trip.

Generally clean but cobwebs on windows. Hot tub was excellent and children enjoyed the pool table and foosball but were disappointed that the trampoline advertised wasn't there. The children's play area is more suitable for toddlers. Kitchen was very well equipped with crockery, cutlery and utensils but no oven gloves!The location is beautiful with views over the rolling hills but the roads to the property are narrow and the hills very steep.Host was excellent and dealt with questions/ problems very promptly.
