“After establishing contact with the owners regarding key collection/access everything was absolutely faultless!”

All our expectations regarding accommodation, location, hospitality...and even the weather...were exceeded. Cannot recommend Burham Barn highly enough.

Pretty amazing in every way; we had absolutely everything we could have possibly needed - a flawless and very enjoyable stay in a delightful place

Michael March 2022

“From arrival to departure everything was first class (weather not included).”

We were hoping to spend a few days just chilling and recharging our batteries and this was easily achieved. A delicious home made cake was waiting for us and Jonathon and Pamela were very approachable and friendly without being intrusive. All in all a lovely few days and we hope to return.

We had everything we needed in the cottage—it was very well equipped, especially the kitchen.

“Lovely place.”

Clean, comfortably and well equiped and in a lovely place.

- Toby, July 2021
Rebecca July 2021

“The location was amazing.”

The cottage was bigger than I expected, with quality fittings and equipment. The hosts (and their dogs) were most welcoming. Not only could I not fault it, but it exceeded my expectations.

- Rebecca, July 2021
David June 2021

“Great location, spotlessly clean.”

Our second time here.

- David, June 2021
Michael May 2021

“Need for car essential.”

The place absolutely peaceful, the little terrace great for evening sun and glass of orange juice (?). Yelverton is a really nice community with an excellent cricket ground and Heavy has a splendid olde world pub.

Vivienne September 2020

“Burham Barn had everything we needed, it was very comfortable and relaxing set in lovely gardens, fields and woods.”

The owners, Pamela and Jonathon were very friendly and helpful and we could not have wished for a better setting for a lovely holiday. The weather was a bonus too. Would - and have - recommended already.

- Vivienne, September 2020
Graham September 2020

“A really lovely cottage, beautifully appointed.”

The owners were kind and helpful.

Doreen July 2019

“Lovely interior with good facilities; everything you could need.”

Large ensuite and separate shower room. Well equipped barn conversion and friendly and helpful owners who live on site. Great outdoor space, especially if you bring your dog. A 20 acre field as part of the property for your sole use which is great for exercising your dog. Very quiet and secluded barn accessed by quite narrow, long drive, but fine if you drive slowly. Would recommend and return again if visiting the area. Lots of places to visit and countless walks both on and around Dartmoor.

- Doreen, July 2019
Brenda June 2019

“Absolutely excellent holiday home, every amenity catered for, owners so pleasant and helpful.”

ideal location although a bit remote if 'walking' is not a requisite! lots of wild life and beautiful, calm 'switch off' environment. would recommend totally!

- Brenda, June 2019
Margaret June 2019

“Very friendly and helpful owners.”

Excellent base for Dartmoor walking.

- Margaret, June 2019
Peter May 2019

“Burham Barn is an exemplary holiday let, extremely comfortable & well equipped.”

The owners, who live on-site are lovely. The location near Tavistock and just minutes from Dartmoor is perfect. What else needs to be said!

- Peter, May 2019
Elizabeth May 2019

“The location and standard of accommodation were excellent and I couldn't fault it.”

We were made to feel very welcome.

- Elizabeth, May 2019
Jennifer April 2019

“This is a great place to stay, really quiet although not far from main road.”

Attached to owners property but the barn is private with no sense of being intruded upon. Great bed, really comfortable and huge kitchen for a 2 person stay. The location of the barn will suit all as it virtually on Dartmoor yet close enough to towns and NT properties etc should the weather be poor. We really enjoyed a relaxing week here and walked on the moor almost every day. Would highly recommend.

- Jennifer, April 2019
Lynne March 2019

“Absolutely splendid accommodation in a delightful part of Devon.”

Our hosts were welcoming yet left us to enjoy our own privacy. The property is furnished to a high standard with everything you would possibly need to enjoy your stay. Our Collie, Meg, was welcomed too. On arrival milk was in the fridge, tea & coffee available plus a delicious homemade fruit cake. We found this a lovely location on Dartmoor but within easy travelling to both beaches and places of interest.

- Lynne, March 2019

- Patricia, September 2018

- Susan, July 2018
Chris June 2018

“Lovely barn conversion in a quiet, beautiful setting and so convenient for Dartmoor and all it has to offer.”

Friendly and helpful owners who just let you get on with it. Can't really ask for anything more in a holiday home!

- Chris, June 2018
Alan June 2018

“Smooth process booking our accommodation and very good communication with Helpful Holidays.”

Burham Barn was an excellent base for exploring Dartmoor and was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Friendly owner who was there if we needed anything (we didn't!). Highly recommended!

- Alan, June 2018
Michael May 2018
