Deer Park Rural Stone Barn Conversion

Thank you Simon for a lovely stay, really wish we could have stayed longer, the grandchildren would have loved to visit! : )

Cosy, rustic, comfortable, clean, rural and so peaceful, Loved all the animals, even the Cockerell 6.30am alarm didn't bother us : ) Exactly what a rural country break should be. Thank you : )

Simon is a really friendly, likeable guy and he was super accommodating. The Barn Conversion is really well proportioned open plan accommodation with two good sized bedrooms and a large, well equipped kitchen, dining and living room. There was plenty of space for our family of two adults, two teenagers and a dog!! The stone track driveway requires either good ground clearance or careful driving but it’s easy enough and only really for the last 150 metres or so as the first section off the road through the farm is paved but there in lies the beauty of Simon’s place for me…… you are completely tucked away from the rest of the world!! There were two very cheeky goats, a pig, a pony, a rooster and his girlfriend the hen roaming free which all loved to interact with us and were no bother with our manic cocker spaniel either! All very happy to eat the scraps of your dinner! Take a walk around the fishing lakes below the property in the evening and enjoy not hearing a single man made noise… no cars, motorbikes or aeroplanes, just the sound of the water, wandering pheasants calling and wild birds singing… truly blissful in the hectic world of people and white noise we inhabit these days! As Simon himself says, “it’s no good if you want to pop out for a decent curry” but if you are not in a hurry and want to get off grid and but still have a warm shower, comfy bed and a bit of WiFi then you’re the type of person to truly enjoy this place. Priced very fairly and worth every penny.

The accommodation was lovely, had everything you needed. Simon the host was helpful and friendly.

The property had everything we needed, and more! I've never stayed somewhere as well-stocked as here. The location was beautiful, and the goats were an added bonus!

I really enjoyed the relaxed feeling of staying at.this barn conversion. It is a lovely building that doesn't leave you feeling like you need to tread carefully but instead can relax and kick back. Our dogs were also well welcomed and interacted with the friendly dogs, goats, chickens and.pig without incident.

Breakfast with "proper" coffee was brilliant.

"Off road" approach needs attention.

Très confortable, parfaitement équipé, calme, très bon accueil

Secluded location with great views. Well located for both Dartmoor and Devon north coast.

We absolutely loved staying in this little gem. The apartment was a great size, with absolutely everything you could need including toys for the children and a cosy wood burner with plenty of logs. The under floor heating added to the comfort as bedrooms were warm and snug. Beds were a good size and really comfy, which isn't always the case with most places. The host was lovely too and the children loved having animals outside.

The driveway to the property was quite eroded but living in a similar place ourselves we understood the challenges of trying to maintain this and the host informed us in an email beforehand, so no surprised.
