  • "Foxglove Barn is an absolute gem."

    Howard and Suzie are perfect hosts, gave us space to relax but also happy to help with any queries. All the little things that are usually missing in a holiday let have been thought of and made it feel like a home from home. The house is so cosy, well equipped, comfortable beds, space to relax, plenty of bathrooms and a fabulous hot tub. The welcome gifts were incredible, really made us feel welcome and were super helpful for our stay. We would 100% recommend Foxglove Barn and look forward to booking again in the future. Thank you!

  • "We had such a wonderful stay at Foxglove cottage and would recommend it highly."

    We stayed with our 10 and 8 year old boys and none of us wanted to leave. It was a great base for exploring the area and beyond and also for a cosy ‘home’ day too. The owners are lovely and nothing was too much trouble for them, they gave a gorgeous welcome arrival with home made biscuits and home made bread, which was very well received. We would definitely return.

  • "Excellent location for access all over South Devon."

    Lovely comfortable clean modern accommodation. Will likely stay again in years to come. Hot tub was important to us and we were worried it was overlooked by the buildings nearby - actually there's trellis and plants all around which made it very private. 10/10

  • "Fabulous property, very beautiful place which is owned by very a lovely couple."

    Hot tub was really great and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Great kitchen which was very well equipped. Lovely lounge area, and very comfortable beds. Small downside is second bedroom en-suite has an electric shower but no basin, or toilet. However, we had a really lovely time and would definitely recommend the property.
