Langdale Barn

Could not fault anything from start to finish.

. Wildlife cameras on TV so good to see..Nice walk around lake..lovely Quiet village very relaxing short walk to pub with good food.. Owners only next door if needed. Lovely private garden

Perfect holiday home, excellent facilities,so clean and comfortable.

Lovely surroundings, highly recommend.

Lovely property - helpful hosts next door - excellent location - we loved it!

The barn is exceptionally comfortable and well equipped.

The highlight is the wildlife camera feed from locations around the lake. The owners are friendly and helpful, but not intrusive in any way. We had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay, and look forward to returning.

Our 2nd stay at this property & equally as good as previous stay.

Julie & Mike are lovely hosts, friendly, helpful but not intrusive…we will come again for a third visit.

A lovely stay at Langdale again.

Mike was very attentive and when we experienced an issue had it sorted quickly. The wildlife cameras are a joy to watch even if the wildlife didn't perform in the rain!! All in all we were very pleased and will be booking again. Thank you for the cream teas and milk on arrival, very thoughtful.

Fantastic barn fully equiped with everything we needed.

Great location for peace and quiet. Wildlife webcams were a real bonus. Hosts extremely welcoming, taking timeout to introduce us to the animals. Would highly recommend.

A comfortable, clean and very well equipped barn.

The owners are extremely welcoming and provide wildlife videos of the animals that inhabit their lake and land direct to the barn. We saw two owlets being fed by their parents, otters badgers etc. This is our third visit with our dog and enjoyed every minute.

Langdale Barn is attractive and well resourced, with everything you may need for a relaxing time.

Everything is well maintained, and the hosts are welcoming and helpful. Sampford Courtenay is an advertiser’s dream of a typical English village.

Oh wow!

What a spectacular property and location. Owners really friendly and helpful. Lovely scones, jam and cream on arrival. Spotlessly clean, spacious, cosy, warm and very comfortable - beds included. So enjoyed sitting in front of log burner watching the wildlife on the CCTV and birds feeding in the garden. SMART tv in every room and WIFI great. Well equipped large kitchen area and good sized table for meals. The tranquility was a real tonic. New Inn traditional pub is a few minutes walk and food/ Sunday roast lovely. Okehampton for shops, supermarkets etc only 10-15 minutes drive. We will definitely be back. Honestly believe we will struggle to find anything better.

We had a great stay at Langdale Barn.

The house was clean, comfortable and had all the amenities needed for a self catering holiday. The small lake onsite was nice for a walk, and the owner sent us lots of videos of the wildlife during our stay. Otters, owl, fox - all so lovely to see. The location was ideal to explore nearby areas and as I had to work during our stay, the road connections were ideal for the places he had to get to as well. WiFi at the property was great for working and watching streaming services. We had a very small issue with the hot water one of the days, but the owner came and got it sorted straight away so it didn't impact our stay at all. Would definitely stay here again.

A beautiful barn with lovely views and surroundings to enjoy.

Equipped and furnished to a very high standard, we were very comfortable. We particularly enjoyed watching the birds in the garden, and the otter and owl on the webcam connected to the TV. A quiet village with a super pub within walking distance. Helpful and friendly owners live in the adjacent house.

What a lovely place to stay.

This is our second visit. The accommodation is very warm, excellent for a wee December break. The woodburner is a cosy bonus. Everywhere is very clean, all we needed was provided...and more. Even luxury touches such as the dressing gowns in the bathrooms, the movement sensitive low lighting for safety when moving around in the dark and the rainfall shower. Loved the walk round the lake and watching the nature cams on the tv screen. And the goats were so friendly. All in all we would strongly recommend.

From the moment we walked in, it was warm and welcoming.

There was a lovely array of clotted cream with some scones and tea ready to use. There was also a little selection of bits our dog. The host popped over on the first evening to make sure everything was ok and throughout the week they were so accommodating with anything we needed and so friendly whenever we happened to see them around. Would highly recommend not only is it a beautiful accommodation and great hosts. They really do think of all the small things.

We had a fantastic stay at Langdale Barn, warmly welcomed by our host and a beautiful cream-tea and cookies and treats on arrival.

This is a lovely place to stay, tucked away in a gorgeous classic sleepy Devon village. The barn is superb, lovely artistic touches everywhere, superb wood-burner (great wood supply), very comfortable beds and bedding, calm, cosy and warm. The bonus of watching our host’s wildlife tv was really very special. The barn is dog friendly - gorgeous enclosed garden with stunning views - perfect for bird watchers, treats and necessities were supplied for our pup as-well - thank you. The property is spotless with absolutely everything you need for a relaxing laidback holiday. The history is deep here and you can feel it everywhere. Take a walk through the village and dip into St.Andrew’s Church, so peaceful. This wonderful barn is really worth a visit. We’d love to return to this spot

A perfect week in perfect accommodation.

Good base for exploring Dartmoor then returning to the barn for a fabulous shower. Later, a stroll down through the village for a lovely dinner in The New Inn. An added bonus are videos of the wildlife around the property.

An absolute gem of a property.

The photos online don't do it justice, as its lovelier in real life. Lovely, friendly owners. The barn is bright, airy and spotlessly clean. The large windows provide for a wonderful panoramic view of the private garden (with its partially covered patio) and the fields in the distance. It is equipped and appointed to a very high standard. The bed was extremely comfortable. Wonderful treat to have a separate bath and shower - and bathrobes. Near the edge of a peaceful, thatched filled village and within easy walking distance of a dog friendly pub. Great location from which to explore Devon and Cornwall. Already booked to go back next year - can't wait.

Langdale Barn is a delightful, high quality accommodation set in a beautiful, charming village with a very nice pub within a short walk.

Our hosts were great and the welcome gift of homemade Devon tea and scones was marvellous. Highly recommend this cottage that had all you could need and is appointed to a very good standard. Will certainly look to book again.

Excellent well managed and equipped accommodation.

Welcome by host shortly after we arrived was appreciated, and we found everything we needed for our stay in this well appointed holiday home I would certainly recommend this accommodation for those seeking somewhere to stay in this part of Devon, or near to Dartmore

We had a lovely time at Langdale Barn; our second stay there.

Very peaceful location and a great garden with large patio area to relax and enjoy the sunny weather and the multitude of birds on the feeders. Langdale is situated at the edge of a beautiful well kept village; the New Inn pub just a 10 min walk from the property. Owners friendly and helpful but unobtrusive. Parking/unloading easy for one car. Milk, scones and wine much appreciated as welcome gifts. We loved the overnight wildlife cameras footage. Would stay again and highly recommend. July 2025

A lovely clean bright comfortable dog friendly home from home, everything you would need is provided, even dressing gowns, wonderful comfy beds and a fabulous power shower that really wakes you up refreshed in the morning, a beautiful location with access to the owners animals, donkeys and goats, walks to a lake and a wild meadow within the owners property, the area is also full of wildlife with viewing cameras placed at strategic places around the owners land allowing the visitors to view any wildlife including wild otters & owl’s live via any of the 3 tv’s in the property, there is a country pub just 5 minutes away serving lovely homely meals.

We had a very relaxing holiday and would thoroughly recommend this property to everyone. We intend to return!

A wonderful clean, comfortable and well appointed barn.

Enclosed private garden perfect for our dog. Excellent host who provides wildlife streams from his lake and nest boxes direct to the barn. We were lucky enough to see otters and roe deer. This was our second visit and we will be back again.

This is a beautiful place, true to all the pictures.

Very clean and comfortable, with friendly, helpful owners. The garden is full of wildbrids and very acrobatic squirrels feeding on the 7 bird feeders that are set up. A good central place to explore from.

Lovely break at Langdale, extremely comfortable, very clean and a welcome gift awaited us.

The peace and quiet is outstanding and the owners wildlife cameras which are shared with guests are a joy to watch. We will definitely return and would highly recommend.

A very well presented property.

Has everything for an enjoyable stay

A lovely property in a great location with all amenities one could wish for!

Everything was well thought through and we enjoyed all aspects of our stay. The kitchen is well equipped, the shower is fantastic and the garden was a great bonus. I probably have spent hours watching the birds on the feeders and checking in on the other wildlife down at the lake. The pub in walking distance was very convenient for a quick bite and a fab sunday roast.

We stayed for a week in March and had a great time at Langdale Barn.

Large spacious accommodation. Great patio area with fab. views. Very well located at the end of the village. Walking distance to a great pub in the village. Good walks direct from Barn, including access to owners grounds with lake. The owner helpful and took great effort to provide daily email links to camera traps to view local wildlife (including an Otter) and the fabulous Tawny Owls!

Unplanned Easter get away.

Quick contact to arrange bed layout. Accommodation was fantastic and in a lovely peaceful area but not far for walks or days out with the children. Garden was safe and secure for our dog to be out in. Booked again for later in the year.

What a gem of a place.

Perfect for the nature enthusiast and for those who like a clean and comfortable base to explore from. Ideal for our small family. Would love to return in the future.

My mum and I loved our stay, everything was perfection.

The comfort and cleanliness were well above our expectations. The wildlife cameras were the highlight, those owls felt like friends after a week! The birds, lake, local walks, Sunday roast at the pub made it the best week for nature and relaxing. Thanks for an amazing week, we will be back.

We enjoyed our stay at the barn a lot, the hosts were very friendly and accommodating, the property has all comforts needed and felt like home, cosy and clean.

The owners went beyond standard care, thinking of little things like board games, a folder with suggestions of where to eat and visit, the wild live cameras were the best touch and gave us lovely moments as a family to just watch and chill.

This was our second visit to this beautiful barn and it is still as lovely as when we stayed the first time.

The barn has everything you need for a relaxing holiday and is presented to a very high standard. This time we stayed over Christmas and the added touches of a Christmas tree and decorations made our stay even more perfect.

Really lovely stay - warmly welcomed by the host who went above and beyond to share the wildlife with us and responded quickly when we couldn’t find something in the house.

Absolutely fabulous natural light with those gorgeous windows, loved sitting and feeling part of it all! The shower was the best of my LIFE; the kitchen was well-equipped for preparing food (including Tupperware for picnics!); and we loved the big table for craft activities, pile of blankets for snuggling, decent speaker for music, massive telly for film nights, comfy beds, matching robes, a fire to warm ourselves by with a good supply of wood and the well-stocked birdfeeders which brought in a wonderful show of birds! (Listening to owls in bed at night was a treat and then seeing footage of one in the bird box the next morning was a highlight!) Well-located for trips to nearby places and reachable by good roads (only got narrow as we entered the village, which was not busy at all in November) and a dedicated parking space was much appreciated. As a mother and daughter going for a week away together it was perfection. Huge thanks to our wonderful hosts!

Wonderful cosy well equipped barn in a great location.

Enclosed garden ideal for our dog. Thank you for the live video feeds of the wildlife around the lake and the well stocked bird feeders. Great pub, a short distance down the lane.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, so much so that we have booked again for next year.

wonderful relaxing week again.

great wildlife photos from around the lake put on our tv. highly recommended

7 night stay in August 2024.

A wonderful, spacious and comfortable property. Very well equipped kitchen, an enclosed garden for dogs, farm and lake at the bottom of the hill. Location is fairly remote but there is a great pub, the New Inn which is a 5 minute walk away. Highly recommended for couples and families, whether a short break or a longer stay.

Fantastic experience.

Great communication before, during and after our stay from the owners. The Only disappointment was that we didn’t get to stay longer. This beautiful Property is set on a small holding in a really peaceful village, the only humm is that off the odd tractor working the fields or that of the of wildlife that surrounds us. If it’s peace and quiet you want then this is the place. We stayed as a family of 4, with a 6 year old and 5 year old, they had access to a lovely garden to play in, and with the property all being on one floor we felt they was alway comfortable and safe. They especially liked visiting the animals that where accessible from the property. Both the owners are really accessible, friendly and helpful we felt very welcome there. Thank you. I hope we can get booked in again soon.

Fabulous property with fantastic views over the fields.

Gorgeous little village. Really friendly owner who sends all the wildlife activity his cameras catch from around the lake onto your email. Lovely watching the birds on the feeders especially the woodpecker. Not far from either coast to travel for the day .

Fantastic stay at this stunning barn, the owners have thought of everything to make you feel welcome & at home.

Comfortable beds & sofas, everything top quality. Lovely views from the garden & its totally safe for the dog to run around in. Thank you to Mike & Julie for the lovely scones on arrival, very much appreciated. Loved watching the different birds everyday arriving at the bird feeder & the videos Mike sent of the array of wildlife that were caught on the video cameras, Wish we had, had two weeks. Highly recommend this property, we will return.

Langdale Barn is the perfect place to relax.

The accommodation is everything you could wish for, lovely comfortable beds, spotlessly clean and equipped with everything provided you would need for your stay. Lovely bright, airy kitchen/lounge overlooking the garden where you can see a whole array of mesmerising garden birds and squirrels enjoying the bird table. The cameras showing the outdoor wildlife by the river were amazing to watch. It is just so peaceful. With lots of extra touches including a most welcome cream tea on arrival and the fresh eggs for sale by the gate. Set in a beautiful village with thatched cottages, Langdale is the perfect place to stay. We will certainly be returning!

We had a lovely stay at Langdale Barn, every detail was perfect.

The scones on the welcome pack were lovely. We didn’t meet the owners as they were away, however they were at the end of the phone if we needed them. They helped us get some of the local honey before we left. We can’t wait to visit next year and have booked our stay already

Another fantastic week at this stunning property.

Mike and Julie truly are the perfect hosts who have thought of everything. We have stayed at many Sykes cottages and this is the best, should be a 5 tick rating as it’s superior to others we’ve stayed in. Never mind, the guest ratings and reviews say it all! If you like walking, visit all three local reservoirs, Fernworthy being our favourite. We can’t wait to come back and booked again before leaving. We really can’t recommend this gorgeous property highly enough. The area is beautiful and the New Inn just a few minutes walk for dinner is brilliant.

Absolutely beautiful.

What a stunning location for a relaxing break. The accommodation had everything you could possibly need. The sofas and the beds are probably the most comfortable we have come across in the 30+ years of self catering holidays. We loved the peace and quiet and watching the birds on the feeder and the antics of the cheeky squirrels was just wonderful. The daily updates from the wildlife cameras were great. Lovely cream tea on arrival and the fresh eggs were great. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again next time we come to Devon. Loads of places to visit in either direction and great beaches for our dog to run for miles, especially Saunton Sands. Thank you for a wonderful break.

Amazing cottage, lovely hosts Mike and Julie We want something to relax , comfort, cosy and we got all .

The wildlife and the cameras was a bonus. Definitely we come back again.

We had a lovely week over the Christmas holidays.

Just relaxed as we didn’t feel the need to sightsee. Spent a lot of time watching the birds on the feeders in the garden, walking around the lake and watching the otter videos that Mike posted. Would love to revisit at some point, thanks for the 5* break, it was perfect.

Wonderful place to stay.

Mike and Julie are brilliant host. Loved seeing the wildlife both in person and on the webcam. Would highly recommend.

A fabulous cottage in a wonderful setting.

So comfortable and cosy. Beautiful wood-burner for evenings in, super comfy beds. Everything is thought of to ensure you have a great stay (even dog treats). Loved getting the wildlife updates too. Have family down here so we’ve stayed in a few cottages over the years. Without doubt this has been the best. Thank you Mike and Julie x

We came for a much needed switch off and relaxing week, and Langdale provides that, and so much more.

We came in a very wet November but even the rain didn't spoil our break. Wonderful hosts, super friendly who go out of their way to ensure your stay is perfect. Wildlife cameras are a fantastic (and addictive!) addition. Pub down the road very welcoming and dog friendly and lovely food. We really didn't want to leave and look forward to a return visit hopefully next year.

Langdale Barn is without doubt an exceptional property and we wouldn’t hesitate recommending it to anyone.

Definitely a 10/10 from us

Amazing cottage with every touch you could wish for.

The wildlife cameras and access to the lake are a particularly spectacular touch

Beautiful views from a lovely barn.

We all loved the wildlife cameras around the lake, especially when the weather was against going out for a walk. Could do with some hand rails on steep, woodland walk to the lake for dithery, old folk like me! Everything inside and out was good.

Another lovely stay at Langdale Barn, it has everything you need.

Lovely touches on arrival and Mike and Julie are very friendly and helpful. Will definitely be booking again for future holidays!

we had a really good time.

The peace and quiet and the Bird Feeders were so appreciated and this was one of the most comfortable cottages we have stayed in. Cant wait to come back.

This property is really nice and very comfortable, it’s very easy to feel at home.

Very clean and tidy, with everything you could possibly require.I would say without doubt it is one of the best places, if not the best we have stayed in. I can not fault the property, and would highly recommend it. Say a big thank you to Mike and Julie for allowing us to use their property.

The best of the best everything you need is is provided to make your holiday comfortable and relaxing definitely at the top of our list .

Lots of special touches not all hosts supply such as toiletries dressing gowns, a bed bowl and some treats for your four legged friend . On arrival we were really enjoyed the scones cream and jam . A wonderful garden with squirrels and lots of birds to watch Mika our dog loved it . We could not find any negatives at all well done to fantastic hosts

Our 2nd visit, even better than the first one.

Amazing cottage in a wonderful place, peace and nature all around. It's a real piece of heaven, thank you so much.

Paradise,perfection,amazing holiday home.

Thank you Mike and Julie.We will be rebooking,Can’t wait to return.

An excellent property with all accessories, comfortable beds and great location.

Just an outstanding property.

Langdale barn is beautifully furnished and in a gorgeous village with a lovely enclosed garden, ideal for our dog. The footpath leading from the garden to the beautiful lakeside walk was a huge bonus. We loved the comfy sofas, the supremely comfortable bed, the fantastic shower and everything else in between. All the little extras provided by the wonderful hosts, Mike and Julie, were very much appreciated. From the delicious cream tea on arrival, to the bath robes and toiletries. We had a wonderful walking holiday, so much beautiful countryside to explore in the area. We ate at the fantastic New Inn, a few minutes walk, 6 nights out of the 7. A massive plus to have this gorgeous pub on the doorstep! Mike very kindly refilled the number of bird feeders in the garden part way through the week, the variety of garden birds we saw was amazing. We could have sat for hours just watching them! Also loved the wildlife cameras - another lovely touch. We loved it so much we booked for next year before leaving and can’t wait to go back.

Langdale Barn is one of the best holiday cottages we have visited.

Absolutely everything needed for a relaxing break is provided. The fixtures and fittings are all good quality, the beds are comfortable, the log burner a boon when its cold outside and the garden is lovely and restful when the weather is warmer. The owners are very helpful and provide a very tasty cream tea on arrival.

A truly lovely place to stay, the little attentions to details just made it feel very much like a home from home, it has all the comforts of home with lots of additional touches, the owners are really nice and friendly and were there when we needed them.

The property is in a lovely quiet and friendly village steeped in history with great walks straight from the property, we would love to return soon. There was a lovely welcome pack and the wildlife cameras are a great way to wake up in the morning and nod off in the evening there is so much to see. Thanks Mike and Julie for all your help and we hope to see you again in the future.

Outstanding place to stay, every comfort has been thought of in a quiet pretty village location.

A nature lovers paradise! Our hosts, the owners so helpful & friendly & close by if needed. Lovely cream tea on arrival & the ‘wildlife’ cameras to view from the property were an unexpected bonus. Loved watching inside the owl box & seeing the chicks growing so fast in the time we were there. Great shower in the bathroom. Well equipped kitchen if dining in & wood-burner for cosy evenings in. Great pub with good food within a few minutes walk. Lots to see in the area. Loved it so much that we have rebooked already!!

A wonderful stay at Langdale Barn!

We took our beagle puppy, Freddie, for a week stay and we all loved it. The barn itself is equipped with everything you need, with lots of extra luxuries to enhance your stay. We loved the addition of the cream tea on arrival, toiletries, dressing gowns, and of course the wildlife cameras! The perfect dog-friendly stay. We’ve even shared the listing with a few other beagle owners who are keen to book! :)

Langdale Barn is a beautiful property- so comfortable, immaculately clean, light & airy.

The cottage is very well equipped & tastefully furnished- Mike & Julie have thought of everything, including the wonderful wildlife cameras. It is in a lovely peaceful village setting, with a great little pub serving good food, and with plenty to explore nearby in glorious Devon. We felt very rested & relaxed after our stay- as did our dog! Thank you.

A second great stay at Langdale Barn and we will definitely be returning for a third stay.

Just love the Barn, the village and surrounding areas especially beautiful Dartmoor. Thanks Mike and Julie - we had a restful week which was just what we needed!

Absolutely delightful Mike and Julie were fantastic hosts Would highly recommend staying here Would like to say a big thank you to the hosts on our arrival Their detail to everything was amazing

A really super property.

All we could need and more. Characterful, clean, high quality equipment and furnishings. Three televisions! We enjoyed the nature cams and the owl. A lovely touch. And the full width scenic windows made the property so light and spacious and brought the garden into the room; we enjoyed watching the birds on the feeder. The owners were friendly and helpful and there if we needed them. Many thanks.

It's such a beautiful place to stay and the cream tea upon arrival and milk was much appreciated after a long journey down.

The barn is exquisite and it was beautifully decorated especially for Christmas. The wildlife cameras were a fab and unique added touch which we spent lots of time watching and enjoyed the walk around the lake despite all the wet weather we had! It was lovely seeing in the new year here and the New Inn pub down the road was a great place for us to eat and have a few drinks with our lab Nala. Mike and Julia were very accomodating and made us feel at home;it was great that it is a dog friendly barn and little village. We hope to be back again someday soon.

Langdale Barn was truly lovely .

Tastefully furnished, comfy beds and sofas and well equipped kitchen. My partner enjoyed a little fishing on the owners lake and we enjoyed watching all the great wildlife on the video camera set up by the hosts. We had a great week.

Beautiful cottage.

Loved the cream tea on arrival. Really friendly hosts who were very helpful. Loved the walks around the lake and the peace and quiet. Would not hesitate to return.

This is one of the best holiday cottages we have stayed at.

It’s spacious, fully equipped with everything needed, comfortable beds and has the added bonus of great wildlife to watch from cameras around the lake and on bird feeders in the garden. Mike and Julie are very welcoming and helpful. We will be visiting again.

We had a lovely stay.

The facilities here are above and beyond and the beds are super comfy. Couldn’t ask for more. We really enjoyed our cream tea too, was so yummy. Lots of places to visit so it really is a great central location for both Devon and Cornwall. Hoping to return soon.

Wonderful stay at Langdale Barn.

The owners are very helpful and have provided everything you need. Lovely cream tea on arrival as well! The village is full of history and has walks from your door.

The Barn was superb.

It was very clean and was very well equipped. It is situated in a lovely quiet village . There are loads of places to visit within an hours drive. The view from the garden was great, and the field and lake behind the barn are a great place to walk your dog. We would definitely return here

Excellent Barn conversion in the most picturesque village.

Wonderful cream tea welcome from Mike and Julie who have thought of everything when it comes to comfort (the beds were so comfortable) Couldn't fault anything. Lovely walks close by and round the lake. Lot's of interesting places to visit close by too, we would love to return soon. Thank you for a truly wonderful holiday.

Beautiful cottage.

Wouldn't hesitate to return. Thank you so much.

We had a fantastic stay at Longdale Barn.

The Barn was very clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing break. It was nice to come back to such a lovely place after busy days out.

In the past using Sykes cottages I have always thought of ways our stay could be improved.

This time, Langdale Barn was perfect and offered more than we ever could hope for. Thank you .

Fantastic property !

Everything was there. Owners were great !

Fantastic holiday barn conversion.

It had everything we needed and more. Mike and Julie made us feel welcome right from the start. Our dog loved the garden and loved the walks around the lake. The wildlife was great both watching it in the garden and on the T.V via the web cams. We enjoyed ourselves so much we have already booked for next years.

Absolutely lovely cottage and wildlife that visit while you sit in your armchair is very entertaining.

Squirrels, woodpecker, Jay and many other birds visit regularly. There is a lake where there are otter and voles. The cottage is fairly centra to both Devonshire coasts and villages so filled our time no problem. Highly recommend.

Our stay at Langdale Barn has been excellent.

The cottage is a top class experience, everything is so lovely, clean and comfortable. You are surrounded by nature and the wildlife cameras are addictive. Mike has been really kind and if you need any help they are just next door. Sampford Courtney is such a lovely village, it's a perfect spot to drive all around Devon. Once you arrive at Langdale Barn you don't want to leave anymore. It has been an amazing stay. We will definitely go back.

Langdale Barn exceeded our expectations, being set in a picture postcard village and having a private lake with wildlife.

An added bonus is the web cam pictures from several locations around the lake which could be viewed at any time on the TV. Mike and Julie are friendly and helpful hosts.

A great week at this barn a fantastic settiing and didnt want for anything as everything provided and the wild life that kept coming to the garden was brilliant

Fantastic barn conversion with all amenities.

Well located and lovely owners. Have booked again for next year already.

It was an absolute pleasure to stay at Langdale Barn, beautiful, sympathetically restored barn with all the modern conveniences and top notch furnishings with the added bonus of wildlife cameras.

Ideally situated in a quiet village (with a lovely thatched pub) to explore all that Devon & Cornwall have to offer. Don’t bother looking any further, you won’t be disappointed.

Langdale barn is just perfect.

The owners who live next door are so helpful and friendly and we cannot thank them enough for making our holiday so special. The property is the best we have ever stayed in, the attention to detail by the owners makes it extra special. The wildlife cameras are an added bonus. Beautiful peaceful setting yet close to lots of lovely places to visit. We will definitely return

Langdale Barn is an oasis of peace and tranquility.

The cottage has everything needed for a very comfortable relaxing holiday. The private garden and access to the owners lake and animals are a delight. Proper free range eggs are available fresh every day from the eggbox in the drive which are delicious. On arrival the cottage was spotless and a very welcome cream tea had been provided by Mike and Julie, the owners. There is a variety of wildlife in the area and around the lake where Mike has 9 cameras capturing everything that goes on which can be viewed on the barns TV sets and if you miss the otters or hedgehogs Mike is only to happy to send you videos by email. The barn is as near perfect as anything we have visited.

THIS PROPERTY IS OUTSTANDING IT HAS EVERYTHING YOU NEED FOR A GREAT HOLIDAY.

IT IS SPACIOUS,COMFORTABLE,WARM AND COSY,PLUS THE WILDLIFE CAMERAS ARE A REAL TREAT.

Very comfortable accommodation.

Well equipped, warm and spotlessly clean. Loved the wildlife cameras.

Great 2 week holiday.

So quiet and an added bonus having the wildlife cameras on the television. Plenty of walks and lots of places to visit within a 25 mile radius. Local pub the New Inn is definitely worth a visitor two, great food, great staff and a good selection of drinks.

It was an absolute joy stepping into Langdale Barn.

Everything was perfect. We were so so comfortable there. The little touches like a cream tea on arrival, the cameras to watch the wildlife and the village is a delight. Thank you so much. Eric & Jane Martin

Perfect describes beautiful Langdale Barn , so much so we returned home and booked the cottage again .

We loved Langdale Barn and had a great stay.

Lots of thoughtful extras and everything was good quality - nice bedding and towels etc. There wasn't anything we didn't like and hopefully we will be back again before too long. Thank you Mike and Julie - everything was perfect for us!

This well designed and lovely property is super clean with comfortable furniture.

The bedrooms have plenty of clothing space. There is a well-equipped kitchen with the bonuses of coffee grinder and wok ! More surprising extras were bath robes and as much body wash, shampoo and conditioner that anyone could need. Langdale Barn was an extremely relaxing place to stay and in a great location. We drove to Exmoor with ease but the best was being on Dartmoor after a straightforward, ten minute drive. Great hosts too. Thank you.

What a fantastic cottage.

Quite possibly the best we have ever stayed in. Excellent beds. Great shower. Well equipped kitchen . Lovely location with the added bonus of a beautiful fishing lake. Loads of Rudd and small carp. Totally spotless. Dog friendly. Helpful yet unobtrusive owners. Thoroughly recommended. We’d certainly revisit if we were in the area again. Can’t think of a single negative.

Our week at Langdale Barn was wonderful.

One of the best we have stayed at - everything we needed was there, including a lovely cream tea on our arrival. Very spacious, in a beautiful area and views of the countryside We would highly recommend Langdale Barn for a quite and relaxing holiday.

Langdale Barn was the most beautiful place to stay, There was a cream tea waiting for us on our arrival, everything was very clean, the beds so comfy you did not feel like getting up, the lovely walk from the garden to the lake was wonderful for walking Josh dog.

Could not fault the attention to detail that went into making our stay here such a memorable one

Peaceful and quiet location yet walking distance to the pub.

Property was excellent with lovely extra touches such as a cream tea and bathrobes. Great to be able to walk down to the owners lake.

Langdale Barn was very well equiped and imaculately decorated.

Perfectly located in mid devon for accessing the north or south, Torquay and Clovelly were both only an hour's drive. We tried several local restaurants, from the excellent New Inn (twice) a short walk away in the village to the Countryman for a Sunday roast and the Bearslake Inn for character and great food. A small problem with the shower was dealt with immediately, contact numbers were provided so any issues could be addressed quickly. Relaxing in the cottage or walking down to the lake was lovely, unfortuantely the poor weather meant it was too cold or wet for breakfast on the patio, but the view of the garden and hills through the full height windows made up for it. We have stayed at several cottages in Devon over 18 years, and this was top of the list.

An exceptional cottage in a very tranquil village.

Beautifully presented to a very high standard, with luxurious and comfortable bedding and furnishings. Ideal for exploring Dartmoor area with just over an hour from both North and South Devon Coasts. Owners visited us at the start and end of our holiday to ensure everything was fine. One of the best UK cottages we have ever stayed in.

Absolutely brilliant accommodation.

The owners was lovely , I would highly recommend and I will definitely be going back myself,.

Language barn is a great place to stay In a quiet village

Beautiful comfortable premises ( piece of heaven) surrounding grounds amazing.

Hosts very friendly. All l can say comes with 100%.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Langdale Barn.

The windows across the back open up the garden which is always full of beautiful birds visiting the feeders, the view across the distant fields and hills is lovely. The cottage is warm, bright, and very comfortable, kitchen and bathroom are modern and superbly kitted out, beds and furniture all excellent.  The hosts are welcoming, helpful, informative and respectful of your privacy. We were lucky enough to visit during lambing and delighted to be able to spend time with the new-born lambs. We were also able to monitor on camera the progress of two owlets nesting in a nearby tree. The private lake and fields are a real bonus and great for a peaceful morning or evening walk. Sampford Courtenay is a tranquil oasis and an absolute pleasure to visit. Hope to return in the near future.

The barn was clean and well-prepared for our stay.

The owner popped round to ask if we were okay or needed anything, which was appreciated. It was in a lovely location with a nice pub, which provided excellent food, nearby. We certainly would consider staying there again.

Our holiday was lovely.

The barn is so comfortable and has everything you might need. Gorgeous furnishings, towels and bedding. The garden is lovely with a door at the end that leads to the lake and field with a swinging chair - so beautiful! We would definately like to return in the future.
