• "We had a wonderful time in this lovely well equipped house."

  We hadn’t realised that we needed to register in advance for the ev charging point. Thankfully the owner was able to organise this for us remotely.

• "We enjoyed our family Holiday which included a 5 month baby and 2 dog, it was very relaxing."

  The Barn was very comfortable, with good outdoor space , probably one of the best equipped places I have stayed in. Nearby access to the costal paths we enjoyed walks to Hope Cove and Salcombe. Kingsbridge is a pleasant town with good pubs and restaurants, great local shops and supermarkets to stock up. A fab holiday.

  Donna Thank you for your lovely review and glad you enjoyed your holiday. Hopefully we can welcome you to Spring Barn again in the future. Property Owner

• "Our first Christmas away from home was a pleasure."

  Eight of us from 1 to 90 years of age enjoyed our stay at Spring Barn immensely. It was clean, warm and well stocked with everything that we needed including a Christmas tree and a box of toys and catering for Christmas cooking was easy. Local restaurants were good and enjoyed many walks. I would definitely recommend this accommodation and would be happy to rebook again

• "I would highly recommend Spring Barn."

  It was a comfortable, warm and beautiful place to stay. We enjoyed exploring the local area walking along the coastal foot paths. One other thing, it was an extremely well equipped barn. The kitchen had everything and more that we needed. We comfortably were able to cook and feed 10 of us.

• "Overall, the property itself was as described and we greatly enjoyed our stay."

  The futon room was the least comfortable. We would have appreciated clear guidelines about bed stripping - there was no mention of your expectations in the property guidelines (we stripped them down anyway). We got the impression from the details that the beach (Hope Cove) was closer and easier to access, however the walk, once achieved, was worth it. Bolberry is a tiny hamlet, but within easy reach of Salcombe, Kingsbridge, Burgh Island and Dartmoor.

• "Excellent property."

  Kitchen well appointed. Beds comfy. Our only extra need was a clothes airer as the weather wasn’t so good!

• "The barn was superb, couldn't fault it at all, every possible thing was provided ,beautiful setting, the only downside was the washing line needs to be moved to the lower garden as there are a lot of steep steps up to the top terrace, and a hand rail would be very benificial to get up there."

• "Lovely house and grounds in a lovely rural setting ."

  Extremely well equipped and presented . We were warm and cosy from the central heating alone ….no need for the wood stove . Close to the coast with Hope Cove only 6 minutes away and the attractive town of Salcombe only a 10 minute drive . All in all a great place to stay and it made for a nice , different XMAS

• "There was nowhere to hang clothes in 2 of the bedrooms."

  The futon in the upstairs room would only be suitable for children.

  Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. There are 3 bedrooms with full wardrobes and 2 with hanging space on the back of the door. Thank you for your comment regarding the futon, we do market this property as suitable for 8 adults and 2 children. We do hope you enjoyed your holiday and all the area has to offer. Property Owner

• ". Beautiful place with plenty of outside areas the cottage/barn was very well equipped and furnished with good quality kitchenware, towels, bedding etc everything well thought out. Replacement cot sorted immediately"

  . WiFi was somewhat intermittent, slight frustration when any party members were trying to work. Not fault of owners obviously

  Thank you for your feedback. We are thrilled that you loved the property. Thank you for your comment regarding the WiFi, due to the nature of the area WiFi can be intermittent, however the owner has now installed a Tenda Mesh system which should solve any internet issues.We do hope that we can welcome you back to the area soon.

• "Spring Barn was immaculate throughout and very well stocked with all utensils, crockery, multi media etc."

  .. that one could wish for. Being dog friendly I expected to detect at least an air of prior canine visitors but honestly it was far cleaner than any other property I have ever stayed in with or without doggy visitors (and we are dog owners but didn't bring our pet on this occasion). I would highly recommend this property to anyone, even those with young children as you will not be disappointed! Its only a 5 minute drive or 25 min walk to Hope Cove through lovely countryside (a few very small lanes too) but thoroughly enjoyable and given the chance we will be back. Many thanks

• "We loved the accommodation which was ideal for a group of friends."

  It was very clean, in a great location and furnished and equipped to a very high standard. The only small thing to point out was there were no hangers in any of the wardrobes so we were unableto hang up our clothes. It was manageable for a couple of days but wouldn't have been ideal for a longer stay Havimg said that we would love to return sometime.

  Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your stay at Spring Barn. We are very happy to hear that you had a lovely stay at that the accommodation suited your requirements. Thank you for letting us know about the hangers we have now arranged for some to be supplied. We do hope that you choose to book with us again and we look forward to welcoming you back to the area soon. Property Owner

• "Spring Barn was absolutely lovely."

  The location was faultless and the grounds were fantastic. There was more than enough space for 8 adults and a little one to stay there. The cottage was very homey, and felt like home during the stay. The only thing one of the visitors struggled with was hitting their head on the light shade when entering the cottage. All the other lights were ceiling lights. This is a very small issue compared to the 6ft 8 person who kept hitting their head. But it honestly didn't put a damper in our stay there. Will definitely be back as the location was perfect. And some of the beaches near the cottage were stunning. Better than beaches abroad we have been to. Overall, we had a lovely stay. And was perfect for some much needed family time.

• "We didn't like the "upside down" floor lay out, which made it difficult having to track up and down the stairs with food, plates etc in order to eat in the garden."

  Not good from a Health & Safety point of view. Talking of which the stairgate at the bottom of the stairs was a bit of a hazard to get over. This would be better placed by the one step at the beginning of the bedroom hallway as there is no way to stop the dogs going into this area or better still put a door there and do away with the bottom stairgate.

  Thank you for taking the time to leave your review in respect of Spring Barn at Bolberry, near Hope Cove.  We were grateful for your valuable feedback regarding the property and a team member will be checking the position of the stairgate during the next changeover.   Your kind comments regarding our team's service are much appreciated and we are pleased to hear that you would use Coast and Country Cottages in the future. Thank you again for your comments, we look forward to welcoming you back to the South Hams again.

• "House and garden are lovely and we enjoyed the week very much."

  Because dogs are allowed, we found a distinct smell of dogs which we could not eradicate - especially in the bedrooms (where they are not allowed - but which are all downstairs near the only exit). Only one key was provided proving a real frustration at times. Previous user had disconnected the DVD lead from the back of the TV - which took some time to find and put right. Nevertheless a good venue near to Hope Cove which was perfect for the youngsters.

  Many thanks for your review in respect of your recent stay at Spring Barn, Bolberry near Hope Cove. We were delighted to hear how much you enjoyed your holiday and that the location of the property close to Hope Cove was perfect for the younger members of your party. We were grateful for your feedback relating to accommodation and clearly disappointed that you found a distinct smell of dogs upon arrival. As you will appreciate we work very hard with our owners and nominated housekeepers to ensure high standards of cleanliness are maintained. Unfortunately, the previous guests had not adhered to the 'no dogs in bedrooms rule'. This is the first issues the owners have had in 8 years of letting the property. For future stays, the owners will ensure that there is a good stock of air freshener available at the house if required. Regarding the single key, there is a key safe at the property, so for convenience, guests would never need to take the key with them. Thank you again for your valuable feedback , we do hope you choose to stay with us again in the future. Property Owner

• "Well equipped and immaculate cottage - perfect for large family."

  We stayed with 4 adults, 4 children ( 9-5) and a grandma and had a great week. Accommodation is large and spacious. Hope Cove is fabulous, but bit too far towalk with small children, especially in evening. Be aware that small room/study that can be used as a potential extra bedroom, does house the boiler and therefore is very noisy when water is operated elsewhere in house. Great garden for the children!

  Many thanks for your positive review in respect of both our service and your recent holiday at Spring Barn, Bolberry, near Hope Cove. We were delighted to hear how much you enjoyed your stay at this well equipped and immaculate cottage and that this property was perfect for your large family group. Your feedback regarding the study/extra bedroom is greatly appreciated. The noise experienced is from the water pump in the loft which ensures there is great water pressure in the house. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused. There are property notes which detail how to turn this off at night as water will still flow when the pump is off. For your information, the owners are now installing a new switch to make it easier for guests to turn the pump off at night. Specific operating instructions will be left in the property. Thanks again for your valuable feedback - we do hope to welcome you back to Spring Barn (and its great garden!) very soon. Property Owner

• "The property was lovely."

  Very spacious and well equipped. A proper home from home. Our whole family (us, our three children and their spouses and one new baby) spent a very enjoyable week there. We will return (in fact, one of our sons and some friends have booked the property for a week in September when they are attending a wedding in Hope Cove).
