  • "Had a lovely stay, the barn has been finished to such a high standard and the owners have clearly put a huge amount of thought, love, money and time into the restoration but also the set up for short term guests."

    The access was a bit challenging as we don't have a four wheel drive car but we managed fine in the end, just had to take it slow and hope we didn't meet anyone coming in the opposite direction! Would recommend for a summer or winter break (as rhe barn is SUPER hot with the qood burner going) for a couple or two friends.

    Dear Melissa Thank you so much for your 5 star review and we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Lingcombe Barn. It is a very special place and although the access is a little remote it is in such a wonderful location for visiting Dartmoor. We hope you may return for another holiday sometime. With best wishes. Mike and Sarah Property Owner
