“Absolutely loved our time at The Stone Barn Cottage - I couldn’t recommend it more.”

The hosts were friendly, and even let us help ourselves to the fresh eggs laid by the chickens they keep! The cottage itself was clean and well-presented, and in an ideal location. The enclosed garden was lovely and spacious, perfect for sitting outside and taking in the surrounding views. ...

The hosts were friendly, and even let us help ourselves to the fresh eggs laid by the chickens they keep! The cottage itself was clean and well-presented, and in an ideal location. The enclosed garden was lovely and spacious, perfect for sitting outside and taking in the surrounding views. The property is located near to the local tea rooms and village shop, which were lovely to visit. We were also in walking distance of the River Dart, which is definitely worth visiting! Definitely the best holiday cottage we have ever stayed at, and would love to go back soon! :)

“Superb accommodation and location.”

Hosts were extremely helpful and welcoming, we found the cottage well equipped and clean, large enclosed garden was excellent. Village had a well stocked village shop and lovely tea room both within walking distance, would absolutely recommend for exploring the area.

“Stonebarn Cottage was exceptionally comfortable and well-equipped.”

We had very poor weather and I was on crutches, so our usual holiday activities, which involve walking and enjoying the outdoors, were not really feasible. The cottage was the perfect home from home. Holne is a pleasant village with a shop and tearoom, and is well located close to the edge of Dartmoor. Our dog enjoyed local walks and loved the garden.

Mr Weyer-Menkhoff July 2019

“These were wonderful holidays.”

Very nice and helpful hosts. The cottage was very clean. It had a lot of space and was furnished very conveniently. The small village (Holne) has a shop and a nice inn and it is a good starting point for hiking tours (e. g. to the river).

Mr Codd September 2018

“The cottage was well placed for visiting Dartmoor and coastal towns.”

We were very lucky with our holiday dates because they coincided with a fair at Widdecombe in the More which was very near to us and gave us a brilliant day out. There we saw "Bill Brewer, Jan Stewer, Peter Gurney, Peter Davey, Dan'l Widden, 'Arry'Awke, an 'Auld Uncle Tom Coblie An' All" an also Tom Pearce on his old gray mare.

“Both in your brochure and in the email confirmations it states that towels are not included at this property, but they were.”

Although this was a pleasant surprise on arrival, we could have saved the space in the car as these are quite bulky. I would have given a better score for cleanliness as the property had been cleaned well, but as we started to use cutlery and crockery, some of this still had food on.
