    “Not off to a great start.”

    The dishwasher was full of very smelly water in the bottom, apparently no one had checked that a cycle was complete. The washing machine had had the water turned off to it, so took a while to work this out & be able to use it. No airer to dry clothes on, & the drier didn't work on washing machine. Quite a few of the light bulbs weren't working & although there were details about where bulbs were kept, I don't expect to be a maintenance person the moment I arrive on holiday!

    The dishwasher was full of very smelly water in the bottom, apparently no one had checked that a cycle was complete. The washing machine had had the water turned off to it, so took a while to work this out & be able to use it. No airer to dry clothes on, & the drier didn't work on washing machine. Quite a few of the light bulbs weren't working & although there were details about where bulbs were kept, I don't expect to be a maintenance person the moment I arrive on holiday! The shower in the bedroom doesn't drain away properly so difficult to clean. Certainly these issues presented us with a disappointing view of our accommodation. Having paid what I feel was a lot of money for one week this property is a little jaded & tired & could do with some maintenance to justify the price

The property

In a peaceful and secluded setting, a mile from Halwell and 1½ from Harbertonford (PO/shop, pub), two cottages and three superb barn conversions at Bickleigh Farm, all sharing an indoor heated swimming pool (39' x 19' x 3' to 4'6" deep, available 8am to 8pm, occasionally also used by owners' family and friends) with toddlers' splash pool, children's play area (swings, slides, climbing frame), large trampoline and games room (pool table, table tennis, WiFi).

All are on a 300 acre working mixed farm (often lambs, calves and kittens).

Conservation walks with wonderful views to Torbay and Dartmoor have been laid out across the farmland and the properties are positioned to each have their own patio and barbecue area, and share large lawns and garden.

Professional catering available.

These are very special places to stay.

On the same farm, The Hay Barn is detached and close to the shared pool and play area.

To the front, a south-facing patio (table/chairs, barbecue) adjoins the well-manicured courtyard (car-free).

Spacious and light kitchen/dining room (dishwasher, microwave, freezer, fridge, gas hob/electric oven) with slate floor.

Living room with beams, oak floor, corner fireplace (woodburner), TV/DVD/Blu-ray.

Loo/utility room (washer-drier).

Wood stairs (stairgates) up to two large oak-floored bedrooms - a double (5' bed, TV/DVD) with en suite bathroom (suite, large bath), and a triple room, 2 beds can be zip-linked to make a super king (on request) with en suite shower-room (suite).

Floor-to-ceiling, safely restricted windows with balustrades.

Comfortable, well-equipped and thoughtfully designed. Halwell: small village (church, good food pub, filling station for basic supplies, bus route) in wooded farmland on the A381 between Totnes (town), 7 miles, and Kingsbridge, 6.

Dartmouth (town) and the sea/beach at Blackpool Sands, 7 miles.

Dartmouth Golf and Country Club (indoor pool), 3 miles; also, leisure park (activities, animals).
