Hazel Barn
Description
Attached to a beautiful Grade II listed farmhouse, Hazel Barn blends historic character with modern comforts. Among its many highlights is a private six-person hot tub, perfect for unwinding after a day exploring Exmoor or the coast.
Inside, exposed beams and inviting spaces create a warm atmosphere. The large sitting room, complete with a woodburning stove, is ideal for cosy evenings together, while a smaller lounge offers a quiet retreat for reading or games.
The farmhouse-style kitchen boasts a striking refectory dining table, making it a great setting for family meals and special occasions.
With five bedrooms and three bathrooms arranged across two levels, the property works beautifully for families and groups.
The first floor (just five steps up) includes a king-size bedroom with en-suite, a double, and a family bathroom. A few steps higher, the second floor offers a double with en-suite, a twin, and a family bedroom with a four-poster king-size and single bed.
Outside, the garden features a patio with a private six-person hot tub and a lawned area.
Set in a wonderfully peaceful location with minimal light pollution, the property is ideal for stargazing within the Exmoor Dark Skies area. Uninterrupted valley views provide a stunning backdrop, making this a wonderful setting to unwind after exploring the coast or surrounding countryside — whether that’s returning from quiet winter walks along the beach, enjoying a glass of wine by the fire, or unwinding in the hot tub beneath clear, star-filled skies.
The owner lives on site, offering a friendly point of contact if needed, while ensuring you have complete privacy throughout your stay.
Note: This property can be booked with Refs: 1089038, 1089063, 1089066 & 1089069, together sleeping up to 37 guests.

What guests are saying
The owner Damion went above and beyond before, during and after our stay.
Was there to help, advice and make us feel comfortable the whole way through. The cake to welcome us was outstanding. Loved the eggs as we was staying on a farm. The games room kept the lads well occupied even though it is a shared games rooms. Bed super quality and comfortable. Maybe a small issue everyibe showering in morning as water went cold after 3 showers. Being in house with so many of us who wanted showers we had to plan it better. The arga was working unfortuntly which was a shame as hige feature of kitchen. But honestly it was a lovely place to stay and for us all we had plenty of room n comfort.p s we found the biard games on last day hiding in the frontroom cupboard.
Hi Jason, Glad you all enjoyed your stay , your partner texted me about the showers and I met her 10 minutes later. The shower in the shared bathroom is electric off the gold water feed which is always hot, it had been set on low so naturally water was lukewarm warm. When turned to ECO or high the water was instantly hot. The power shower in one bedroom that was cold when turned from ECO to full again was hot. As you can imagine it is a large property and with kitchen use and appliance plus baths and multiple showers inevitably some may have wait a few minutes but the tank reheats fully in 20 mins so an extra cup of tea and your ready to go. As for the AGA , it is disconnected (we don’t advertise it as connected) for both safety and practicality. Oil fired ranges take a lot of getting used to for cooking on. They also take approximately 8 hours to get hot enough to cook on for the ovens and hobs which is not practical hence the electric 3 oven range provided. Oil ranges also get extremely hot to touch and that is simply not safe with young guests around. Pleased you all enjoyed yourselves and got to spend time with each other, it’s a shame the Sykes scoring system can be harsh and not reflect the kind words in your message. Kind Regards, Damon and Karen
Hazel Barn is spacious and comfortable.
The kitchen is very well equipped. The provisions found on arrival were a nice welcome and much appreciated. The hot tub was very relaxing. We enjoyed our stay.
Hi Kevin, So glad you all had a relaxing stay and we look forward to welcoming you back. Kind Regards, Lambscombe
Lovely cottage big enough for 6 adults and 4 children.
Cottage was a lovely size outdoor space and hot tub were great. Hot tub was regularly cleaned by host Damon . Host was helpful and friendly. The Cottage is in a very quite area surrounded by fields. Seaside was about 40 minutes away. We had a lovely family holiday and would recommend families to use this .
We booked Hazel barn for my brother 30th.
The property was very clean and we had been left some goodies when we checked in. The owner was very friendly and nothing was too much. The kids loved the games room and the hot tub
Excellent accommodation, Damon was very friendly and helpful throughout.
The photos are accurate, it is a beautiful location. The hottub was brilliant and cleaned throughout our stay. Thank you for a wonderful weekend - our hen had a wonderful time!
This is a lovely cottage with bags of character.
We had a party of 8 adults, 2 children, 1 baby and a dog. There was plenty of room and everything is provided. There’s a large play field near the car park, with a goal and badminton net (with rackets and shuttlecocks). A doggy walking part, albeit very steep. The outside furniture at the house was excellent, large table, patio set and lounging chairs. The hot tub was lovely and warm. The BBQ came with a bag of coals and lighters. The location is very remote. The single track roads to North or South Molton take 10 to 15 minutes to drive to the main road. Hence even South Molton is 15-20 minutes away.
Hazel Barn is a great place to stay.
Spacious, well equipped, warm, clean and very child-friendly. We were 8 plus a toddler and it never felt crowded. The beds were comfortable, it was easy to cook in the kitchen, and the welcome pack was much appreciated.
Absolutely loved celebrating my 60 th in our week at Hazel Barn.
It was perfect for our 3 generations and the owners were lovely. So much to do in the area within half an hour or so to keep the little ones entertained or just sit back and chill. My daughter arrange Chef Micheal -a private chef to come and cook one night and the evening was wonderful.
We had a wonderful family holiday at Hazel barn the kids (and adults) loved the games room and the hot tub but for me my favourite was simply sitting on one of the garden chairs soaking up the views and sunshine.
Everything you need is just down the road in South Molton which has a tremendous indoor market. We would highly recommend hazel barn for a memorable family holiday.
We had a lovely 2-night stay at Hazel Barn, the hot tub on a sunny Saturday afternoon was a particular highlight.
We found the property to be well-equipped, cosy and clean, and comfortably slept 7 adults. Returning to Lambscombe Farm after many years, it was good to find that little has changed in the area, keeping the beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. Would happily visit again and recommend to others.
What an absolutely fabulous property.
Everything we could have wanted and more for all the family. Had a great time and would certainly recommend a stay here in such a peaceful and scenic location.
Lovely cottage in a picture postcard location.
10 of us being 3 generations of the same family had an excellent week. 4 grandkids between 7 and 10 loved the outdoor space and the games room. On-site owner very good. Thanks Damon.
Great property for group of 11
Hi Richard, we are obviously disappointed that you gave us the lowest score the property has ever received especially without any clarification. Our changeover team always ensure that each of our properties are immaculate before guests arrive and low feedback is understandably upsetting for them. When we spoke to your wife nothing was raised apart from a couple of minor plate chips (there were another 6 dinner plates in the cupboard) and the XBOX not working which was due to a fault HDMI port that had been broken and not reported. I replaced the XBOX as soon as informed with our own. It is better to inform owners of any issues you have and fairer rather than scoring on return without explanation. So glad all 11 of you enjoyed your stay it was definitely well lived in when the team went in there on Saturday. Regards, Damon and Team
What a fantastic place to stay, we all loved the location and facilities.
Hi Leah, so glad you all enjoyed yourselves at Lambscombe and we look forward to welcoming you back soon. Kind Regards, Damon and Team
Hazel Barn was lovely.
All of our party enjoyed the Easter weekend stay there. The children enjoyed the games room plus the Hot tub. Think they actually took over the Hot tub ha! Lovely big enclosed garden space for dogs to run free and play too, perfect.
Hi Barbara, Hazel is excellent for a family get together with lots of space indoors and outdoors for 11 people. Were look forward to welcoming you back soon. Kind Regards, Damon and Team
An excellent property that we all thoroughly enjoyed especially the hot tub and games room.
Would definitely recommend.
Hi Brian, thank you for your kind feedback and so glad you enjoyed your stay. Look forward to seeing you all again soon. Kind Regards, Damon
Had a really great stay and will be recommending to friends and family.
The hosts were super helpful and went out their way to help us. Lovely spacious house.
Hi Nathalie, so glad you enjoyed your stay and we are always happy to assist guests whatever the question. Look forward to welcoming ing you back again soon. Kind Regards, Damon
Fantastic place to stay , beautiful area ,very helpful owners.
Hot water can be an issue with a full house , so don’t all have a shower at once !
Hi Catherine, so glad you enjoyed your stay. Unfortunately with 11 people and power showers the tank can empty but only takes about 25mins to reheat fully. Also the main shared bathroom has an electric cold water feed shower so there is always hot water available to wash the beach off :) Look forward to seeing you all again. Kind Regards, Damon
The fresh eggs and homemade cake were a lovely surprise on arrival and were enjoyed by all throughout the week.
The venue offered a tranquil relaxing stay. The hot tub was a keen favourite for everyone. The stars were amazing on a clear night. The house was clean and cosy. The kitchen was a great place to gather, enjoying home cooked food and conversation, on a large beautifully crafted wooden table, although the table isn't flat, making eating and serving up a little precarious at times. Generally a well equipped kitchen, although it was ashame the aga was decommissioned, so out of use. A couple of things would have made cooking for a large party a little easier, sharpened knives, the few remaining are very blunt and more of them, a few smaller sized frying pans.. Otherwise pretty good collection of pots and pans. The property advised that you are provided with bed linen and towels, so we didn't bring anything. The bed linen was fine, but we only had 6 towels for 11 people for the week, which was not enough. Especially as you are also using them for the hot tub, you were left trying to dry off with damp wet towels. The wood burner in the living is a homely touch, but unfortunately is missing the seal, making the room smokey. It also meant that it burnt it's way through the wood at a fair pace. Hopefully this will get fixed for the winter. Overall a pleasant and enjoyable stay, would definitely recommend.
Hi Lisa, glad you enjoyed your stay in general. Just to answer a few points you made the booking for 6 people in Hazel that is why you were supplied with 6 bath towels and hand towels. We supplied towels for the booking you made with Sykes which i have double checked. Hazel is a self catering property as discussed so most people bring extra towels for beach and hot tub etc. If you had asked for more towels which you didn't at any point we would have happily supplied them. An oil fired AGA is extremely difficult to master and also run and service. The range cooker provided is very large and never been a problem for even large parties over Christmas. You did mention the knives on the day you were leaving again we have spares as they do tend to go missing there is also a sharpener in the draw (i just checked). Regarding the fire you asked for logs which we supplied as your father was cold, we don't supply logs until the end of October and our fires are maintained by a Mensa approved sweep. Hazel will be completed on the 15th October, although i could not find any missing seal these will be checked. I would also add for people reading your feedback that it was 23 degrees and your party had switched off most of the thermostats on the radiators due to it being too warm. We are onsite and happy to help with any issue raised with us , it is therefore disappointing that you waited until you got home before commenting.
Hazel barn exceeded our expectations.
The cottage was spacious and very comfortable. The owners have thought of everything we could have asked for, the stair gates were perfect for our party as we had our grandson of 21months old with us. On arrival we were greeted with a welcome basket of tea makings and a lovely cake which was an instant hit. The location was remote but just what we wanted away from the hustle and bustle. The hot tub was a hit too, and was checked daily to maintain hygiene and safety. We had a couple of small issues that needed to be dealt with and these were handled quickly and efficiently once raised with the owner. We would return in a heart beat and highly recommend this cottage for large group or family holidays.
Lovely cosy place in an idyllically peaceful location.
Damon always around to help if needed but we had no problems. The hot tub was a massive hit with the grandkids. Would come back again just as a couple for a proper retreat!
Hi Tricia, so glad you all enjoyed yourselves we would love to welcome you all back to Lambscombe. Oak or Hawthorns are both lovely for groups up to 6 or a treat for two and both have large commercial hot tubs. Kind Regards, Damon
Idyllic setting within easy reach of North Devon beaches and Exmoor.
Accommodation was excellent our three generations including young children stayed all had the very best time. The owners were very both friendly and helpful.
Hi Steph, so glad you all enjoyed your stay, we look forward to welcoming you all back to Lambscombe soon. Kind Regards, Damon & Karen
The cottage was lovely, it was tidy, clean and well kept, and all the amenities were just perfect.
Would recommend to anyone thinking about going, it was well worth it.
Hi Azi, great to see you all and so pleased you enjoyed your stay. As we discussed we make all our properties to a standard we ourselves would expect. Look forward to seeing you all again soon. Kind Regards, Damon & Karen
Perfect stay!
Thank you very much. Clean and have everything you need for 10 people. Aswell as the hot tub,bbq and games room you really do not need to leave this building.
Hi Kerri, we are so glad you all enjoyed yourselves, we try and make all our stays at Lambscombe feel like home from home so always please when we receive such nice feedback. Hope to see you all again soon. Kind Regards, Damon & Karen
We are a family of 9 celebrating a 60th birthday.
Hazel Barn exceeded all expectations. It is a stunning property with beautiul decor and lots of communal space. The garden area is stunning! Highly recommend.
We had a great time there and the hosts were so nice and helpful.
The owner was kind enough to show us the rain deers passing through the forest. Amazing view while in the jacuzzi. Our dogs had great time as well and the garden was secured enough for dogs.
Hi Shaya, glad you all enjoyed yourselves and we look forward to welcoming you back soon. Kind Regards, Damon & Karen
Absolutely adore Hazel Barn and the surrounding area.
Owner is lovely and really works to make sure you have a great stay. This was our 5th year at Hazel Barn and it's a true home away from.home, we don't relax anywhere like we do there. We had family and friends visit this time over a 2 weeks holiday and everyone thought it was such an amazing place.
Hi Philip, it was a pleasure to host you again at Lambscombe and we look forward to seeing you again. It really is a special place to unwind with friends and family. Kind Regards, Damon
Excellent accommodation, cleanliness superb, facilities great everything you need in the barn.
A great welcoming cake. Would definitely recommend.
Hi Michelle, thank you for the great feedback I will pass on to our changeover team. Hopefully we will see you all again soon. Many Regards, Damon & Karen
Lovely barn.
A perfect base for a family holiday. The hot tub and games barn were especially enjoyed by all.
Hi Janine, thank you for the lovely feedback and we are so glad you enjoyed yourselves and look forward to welcoming you back soon. Kind Regards, Damon & Karen
Damon & Karen were perfect hosts.
They were always on hand if we needed anything but didn't impose in any way. Hazel Barn was perfect for our needs as we had to accommodate several family members from age 2 to 90. Due to the size of the property no one felt as if we were on top of each other. The kitchen facilities were just great with everything you could need with a really spacious fridge freezer. The outside space was perfect with a large outside table and chairs, but the crowning glory was tge hot tub, which everyone thoroughly enjoyed. We look forward to visiting again as soon as we can.
Excellent location and beautiful accommodation.
Hi Rebecca, so glad you enjoyed yourselves in Hazel its definitely a place to unwind. Hopefully see you all again soon. Many Thanks, Damon & Karen
Lovely accommodation, well decorated and equipped, with plenty of relaxing seating, very versatile sleeping arrangements over the 5 bedrooms and a massive kitchen .
Owners on hand for friendly advice and a chat whilst respecting our privacy. The games room was great for the kids, even though they were all under 8, and equally as much fun for all the adults. The hot tub was a lovely escape and detox after long days out making the most of the countryside and beaches. The welcome pack was especially useful till grocery delivery our first evening.
Hi John, thank you for your kind words and so glad you enjoyed Lambscombe. As discussed we have great plans for Lambscombe and will keep you informed as we progress. Many Regards, Damon & Karen
Although a little remote we had a great time there .
The roads leading to the property are not for the faint hearted many big potholes but this should take nothing away from our stay .Would love to return at some point .
We had an amazing stay for a girls weekend.
The house is really lovely, accommodating and cosy. I would definitely book again.
Hi Jess, so glad you enjoyed your stay and your day out in Exeter. we look forward to welcoming you all back. Many Thanks, Damon & Karen
Excellent stay at Hazel Barn, plenty of room.
The Grandchildren loved the play barn and the hot tub. Highly recommended.
Hi, so glad you enjoyed your stay and a huge thank you for leaving the Barn so clean. Look forward to welcoming you all back soon. Regards, Damon & Karen
This was a lovely cottage.
We had a fabulous time, the furnishings were all done up for Christmas with decorations which was a lovely touch! We arrived and had a lovely cake and lots of eggs to eat along with milk. We were worried about it being secluded but there was a lovely town 10 minutes down the road with a Sainsburys and a few take away places. We had a visit from the owner who brought us plastic cups for the hot tub which was a lovely thing for him to do. Thank you for a lovely stay.
Hi Lucy, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Lambscombe. Next time you all stay we can advise you on the many pubs and restaurants all within easy reach of us. Many Thanks, Damon & Karen
Absolutely adore Hazel Barn.
So peaceful and comfortable
Hi Philip, so glad you enjoyed your stay, Lambscombe is an excellent place to have some downtime from the pressured we all face at the moment. we look forward to welcoming you back soon. Regards, Damon & Karen
Property suited everything we needed to enjoy our family break.
Fantastic area for walking. Property was very clean and warm with a lovely welcome pack awaiting our arrival. Friendly host available for anything needed. Well equipped kitchen for us all.
Hi Sarah, thank you for your lovely feedback, it means a lot to us. So glad you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to seeing you all again. Many Thanks, Damon & Karen
We just had the most amazing family time at this gorgeous property .
It was so absolutely perfect. Had everything you could need. The decor and everything in it was lovely and in keeping.The hot tub was a wonderful addition and got plenty of use.Everywhere was spotless and very comfortable. The area in which the property was so relaxing and not too far from lots of things of interest for all. We arrived to find a dozen fresh eggs and the most beautiful chocolate cake on the kitchen table . I loved it and didn't want to leave and shall definitely be booking again. Thankyou to the owners who made our weekend so wonderful .
Hi Dawn, so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. We look forward to welcoming you all back to Lambscombe in the near future. Many Regards, Damon & Karen
I think you know how thoroughly chuffed we were with Hazel Barn…… it exceeded our needs in every way.
Every room was beautifully furnished, the beds were incredibly comfortable and the kitchen with its huge refectory table was the crowning glory..!! We were so grateful for all the help you gave us in getting Lurch back on the road…. She has her moments….who knew a baked bean tin could save the day..!!.. We will definitely be back…. and will probably be bringing the family in tow with us too…… There’s a lot of us….
Hi Viki, not a problem and thanks you so much for your kind feedback. It would be great to welcome you all back again, we have just invested in a marquee and events furniture so if you have a large family event you can guarantee to avoid the Devon sun ;) See you soon Damon & Karen
Lovely barn and all furnishings in excellent condition.
Very homely with numerous ornaments and wall decs around the barn. Lot of private outdoor space, incl BBQ for personnel use and the hot tub was a bonus! As also was the games barn. Owners of Lambscombe barns/cottages (Damon & Karen) are excellent hosts and always took time out of their busy day to advise us on walks /places of interest in the area and it is obvious when you meet them they are very much in the right business. We had minor issues in first few days which were resolved in ‘record’ time. Damon & Karen have renovated a further 2 cottages, one of which we viewed and we will be back at some stage.
Hi Sheila, many thanks for the feedback, as you are aware we are carrying out numerous improvements to Lambscombe after purchasing in December. We look forward to welcoming you all again and sharing the changes we have made to make your stay at Lambscombe even more memorable.. Many Regards, Damon & Karen
We were a family of 10 of various ages and stayed for a lovely week in Hazel Barn.
Everything was done for our comfort Any queries sorted promptly. The welcome pack of cake eggs and drinks was much appreciated. The accommodation was very roomy and comfy with everything that was needed esp in the kitchen. We all had a brill week.
We had a fantastic stay at Hazel Barn.
. A little bit out of the way but well worth it. Our hosts were great... The property had everything we needed, cosy, warm and spacious. The hot tub was a big hit, we even got our older aunts to get in, they loved it as did we.. Thank you Karen and husband.. ❤️
Hi Moira, so glad you all had a great time you certainly brought the weather with you all. Hazel is the ideal place for a family reunion and we hope to make it even better over the coming months. See you all soon. Damon & Karen
We had a great stay at Hazel Barn.
We stayed as a friends and family group and found it very comfortable, clean and cosy! We had awful stormy weather but that made the cottage all the more cosy The hot tub was super and all loved using that. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything you needed too. The lcake and tray of eggs was a lovely gesture and we even got a double yolk! We would definitely recommend it and would be keen to book again. Damon was very helpful and accommodating - especially when we got lost arriving! Thank you.
Hi Marilyn, thank you for you positive feedback, we are so pleased you all enjoyed your stay even with the challenging weather. We are in the process of fully renovating each property on site and adding more feature so when you come back it will hopefully be even better. We look forward to seeing you all again soon (in the sunshine) Regards, Damon & Karen
Myself and my family had the most amazing time at Hazel barn.
It was just as cozy and beautiful as the pictures. The hosts were fantastic and helped with any of our questions. And to top it off we had a lovely welcoming pack including a very delicious cake. The games room was a massive plus for the kids to enjoy themselves. Because of how wonderful the cottage is and well thought out, we were able to just bunker down and enjoy our stay as family. Thank you so much we will be coming back.
Hi Kylie, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Lambscombe and look forward to seeing you all when the suns shining. Kind Regards, Damon
