"The cottage met our needs perfectly and was a very nice place to stay and well located for day trips to the north Devon coast and Dartmoor."
Ben and Linda are delightful and we had a few nice chats with Ben over the week and I learnt a bit more about dairy farming! We both enjoyed the holiday and really appreciated being able to take our persian cat as well. Many thanks and hopefully will return in the future.
Hello James , Thankyou for your feedback and I’m glad your cat also enjoyed it. ! Property Owner

"Great Welcome from Linda who also gave us a few ideas of places to visit."
Cottage is beautiful and had everything we needed for our stay and the bed was so comfortable. As the garden is fenced all round it was very safe for our dog to wander around. We really didn’t want to leave. It deserves more than a five star review Tina, Steve and Tia the dog
Thankyou Tina. I’m glad you enjoyed it. Hope to see you again in the future. Linda Property Owner

"Very cosy and comfy barn conversion."
Ideally located for Dartmoor, and Cornwall, where we popped over to during our stay. Okehampton can be reached on foot via the woods round the corner. Castle is definately worth a visit. So much to see and do on Dartmoor. A bit of info on Lydford Gorge. Land slips have restricted the best parts of the Gorge for the forseeable future. (As at 06/24). Best check before you go. Nice to meet Linda and her dad, Ben. Very friendly. I recommend the Barn. And don't forget to star gaze through the bedroom windows. Superb!
Sandra, Thankyou for your comments and I’m glad you enjoyed it. Linda Property Owner

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Northwood Barn."
It was warm and cosy on arrival and we had all that we needed, plus plenty of space for the two of us and our large dog to be comfortable for the week. The location is great! Peaceful, tranquil, away from it all... yet handy for local shopping and easy access to Dartmoor and its many attractions. Highly recommended!

Hello Michelle and family. Thankyou for your comments and I’m glad you enjoyed it. Linda Property Owner

"Very nice small barn conversion with everything you needed."
Lovely welcome pack to start the holiday off. Enclosed yard was perfect for our dog, as were the walks just minutes away in the woods and down to the river for a swim. Rural location was easy to find and far enough away from the town to be very quiet and dark at night, great for star gazing. Mountain biking in the woods was also a treat and loads of trails to choose from. Would definitely stay again.
Thankyou Paul, Amanda and family for your feedback. We look forward to welcoming you back. Property Owner

Surrounded by glorious countryside with ample off-road parking, Northwood Barn provides an ideal base for two couples or a family seeking an escape to rural Devon.
Enter through the stable door into the open-plan living space, where the head chef can take over the kitchen and rustle up something good, before gathering around the dining table to enjoy a leisurely meal.
Spend your down-time in the lounge, curling up on the sofa and browsing the Smart TV for something to watch.
Escape to the enclosed garden and relax on the patio furniture, enjoy a favourite tipple after a long day, or get the barbecue going for a grilled dinner.
When sleep calls, the upstairs plays host to two double bedrooms, one with Smart TV, served by a bathroom with choice of bath or shower over.
The market town of Okehampton is a short drive away and offers a host of supermarkets and eateries, including several traditional pubs, perfect for when you don’t fancy cooking.

Relax in beautiful Simmons Park in the centre of the town featuring a children's play area as well as woodland walkways and riverside paths.
The spectacular Dartmoor National Park is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts; join the Tarka Trail for unspoiled countryside and local wildlife, including the iconic Dartmoor ponies or wander along the old railway to Meldon reservoir and enjoy stunning vistas.
If it’s a day on the coast you fancy, Devon and Cornwall’s bustling resorts are a short drive away, including beautiful beaches and plenty of watersport activities, whilst the city of Exeter offers a welcome change of scenery, boasting a thriving shopping scene.
All this and more awaits at Northwood Barn.
