We had a wonderful family holiday in an enormous house that had everything we needed. We couldn't fault anything, and the owners were very helpful. The house is set in a lovely quiet area and was wonderful for our dog.

A beautiful cottage. There is lots of space for a large group and the pool table and table tennis were great fun. The garden is a lovely place to sit on a sunny day. The kitchen is well equipped. We really enjoyed our stay.

We all really enjoyed our stay at this property. Massive living area, well equipped kitchen, lots of bathrooms and comfortable bedrooms all led to lovely stay. The open fire was amazing. You're not tremendously close to any large shops but with a little planning that wasn't an issue at all.

A lovely barn conversion with plenty of room for a large family. The barn is quite some distance from shops and pubs but very quiet and peaceful.

We had a fantastic week at Rock Barn, kitchen fully equipped. The main living room was very spacious allowing you all to be together or if you wanted a bit of quiet time the snug was great. All bedrooms are spacious and comfy beds. The pool table and table tennis were a great addition. We travelled with 2 dogs, the garden was a great size and securRead moree. There is a Co-op, Waitrose and Lidl 10 minutes drive in Okehampton. Just eat delivers here. Beach 45 minutes drive North. Would recommend. Hide
