About this property

Woodstone Barn is the larger of two barn conversions, set within its own enclosed gardens on a Devon farm. Boasting amazing, far-reaching views towards Dartmoor National Park and on a slope above the West Devon Way, this rural cottage offers an escape to the countryside for a family or group of eight. The hallway leads to an open plan living area with a kitchen, plus the dining area is large enough to seat your whole group comfortably. The living area has tall, vaulted ceilings and stairs rising to the first floor, where an open plan landing leads to a king-size double bedroom, a twin room with a Velux window, plus a room that can either be a sitting room or a bedroom, as there is a double sofa bed, a corner sofa, a TV and lovely views of the garden. Guests will enjoy the cosy warmth which radiates from the woodburner to the first floor, as well as the double doors that lead out to the private patio, the perfect place to have a barbecue and unwind, as you gaze at the wonderful rural views reaching for miles. Set amongst some of Devon's most natural, unspoilt countryside, a stay in this cosy, rural escape will leave you wanting to return for more. This property can be booked alongside Ref: 999655 and together they sleep 12 people in 6 bedrooms.

A delightful, award-winning market town on the River Tavy, nestling in the south-west slopes of Dartmoor. Tavistock has an indoor pannier market, a diverse range of shops, and an excellent choice of pubs, bistros and restaurants. This is the perfect destination for country lovers who enjoy the convenience of an interesting town on the doorstep. There is excellent walking on Dartmoor, cycling on The National Cycle Network no. 27, renowned game fishing and various National Trust properties nearby. Within easy reach are the maritime city of Plymouth with its Barbican Quay, Torbay's sandy beaches, and the beaches and surfing of North Cornwall. All are within an hour's drive and provide activities to keep all the family happy. Tavistock is a wonderful all-year-round holiday destination.

  • Paul

    The kitchen facilities were excellent, the bedding, towels etc all good quality and very comfortable beds. We really enjoyed the fire and had one every night. This felt like a real treat on the dark evenings. Everywhere was clean, tidy and as described. We liked the additional touches of blankets, maps, books etc., it felt very homely. We had breakfast outside several mornings so we felt we enjoyed all the barn had to offer.

    The barn was lovely and warm, very clean and comfortable. The play barn was an added bonus which was enjoyed by the whole family, including my grandson of 11 months.
