Farmstay holiday rentals in South Hams District

Would definitely stay again and recommend to friends & family. We went as two couples and three dogs (Hungarian Vizslas), staying in the two neighbouring cottages, and it was idyllic. We had the smaller cottage. Quiet, cosy and clean. We did the vineyard tour and wine tasting with our dogs in tow, which was fab, then had dinner al fresco in front of the accommodation, accompanied by wine from the vineyard. As well as being free to walk our dogs around the vineyard, there are lots of other country walks nearby. Staying in such an old property and countryside location, I was very pleasantly surprised by the strong WiFi, TV with all streaming channels and powerful hot shower, these were the cherry on top after a day out walking. Word of warning to owners of dogs reactive to livestock, there can be cows or sheep in the neighbouring fields only a few feet from the front door, with a fence that could easily be jumped through or over. Not an issue for us but could be for others.

Trystan was an incredibly kind and helpful host, really accommodating and went out of his way to make sure all of the kiddies were happy and comfortable. If you’re looking for child friendly accommodation this is it, there is every kind of toy and car available for the kids to play with, very easy and a fun house to stay in. Beautiful gardens and a great location.

We wanted to get away from it all in a part of Dartmoor we hadn't been to before and Steve's place seemed to fit the bill. When we got there, we found that it more than met our expectations! The Barn was exactly what we were looking for: a wonderful peaceful location and extremely comfortable and very well-equipped accommodation. The big selling point for us was the fact that the Barn was on lots of well-mapped walks, so that we could go on lovely walks in all directions without having to get in the car. Steve and Tessa were the perfect hosts; they made us feel most welcome and we found we had a lot in common. We very much enjoyed our short stay and look forward to returning to the Barn before long to explore the area further.

A perfect setting to clear my brain of all the clutter that builds up over time. Peace & quiet to read & read & then read some more. Will be booking to go back again later in the year. Kim is the best host.

We had a wonderful stay at Higher Blannicombe! The cottage is beautifully kitted out and has everything you could need for your stay. The cookies on arrival were a lovely touch and we really enjoyed the other free snacks! The views from the cottage are amazing and we loved waking up to the rolling countryside. Phil was a fab host and made check in and check out super easy. By far the best Airbnb we've ever stayed at!

the place was well furnished, had what we needed for the kids, and was spotless. if were coming back to Devon we'd definitely look at this again.

We stayed for a long weekend, and had friends join us for the first night. Bedrooms were spacious and very comfortable. The house is in a lovely spot, and really quiet. Instructions accurate and detailed. The kitchen was well appointed and two fridges a really useful touch. If you plan to use the BBQ you will need to bring charcoal - the local Asda had very limited option, so we recommend planning ahead! We made the most of being on the south west coast path on our second day, walking all the way to Salcombe…. The trek back up the hill was a little more intense than we hoped, but a great location. We would have happily stayed a few more days!

The views from the cottage are just stunning. It’s such a peaceful area in the heart of Dartmoor. Miho has clearly put so much love into her garden too, which we thoroughly enjoyed. The organic vegetable garden was fantastic, and the kids enjoyed collecting things for our supper. We saw wild animals walking so close to the cottage and it was magical. The beds were super comfy, great shower, great selection in the kitchen and some lovely throwback films to choose from too. Thank you. I’m sure we’ll be back!

We had the most wonderful time at this beautiful cabin. It was meticulously clean, beautifully designed, and every little detail had been thoughtfully taken care of by the hosts. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely relaxed and at home. The location was peaceful and picturesque - the perfect escape. You can really tell how much care and love has gone into creating this space. We wouldn’t hesitate to come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a serene getaway.

we absolutely loved our stay at the cabin. Andy and Sam made us feel so welcome. The cabin was perfect for our little family. Our 3 year old son especially enjoyed feeding the animal, the chickens in particular. The location was spot on and the perfect mix between country and seaside with the beach being 30 minutes away. would definitely recommend.

We had a wonderful time staying at Ruby Rose. The surroundings are idyllic. Our 5 year old daughter loved checking on the chickens , collecting their eggs and ensuring they had their water topped up. The outdoor games provided were a great touch - we had quality family time. Denise was welcoming and helpful. Thank you for having us

We had a beautiful week at The Cart Barn, beautiful location with beautiful views and a private garden which was perfect for our pooch! we spent most of our evenings watching the beautiful cows out the garden! the hot tub was a lovely addition and the barn had everything we needed to make ourselves and our dog feel at home! Some great recommendations in the welcome book and from the owners of local things to do! Will definitely be returning in the future! :)

Beautiful setting and a beautifully built log cabin. Peaceful and tranquil. Well worth the money and we will return in the future. Visitors need to visit the anchor inn in seatown for lovely food and drinks

Lovely bolthole - beautiful barn with a wonderful view over nice garden and fields. Well equipped for two people and comfy with nice living space and TV. Kitchen had everything we needed (and we did lots of cooking) and good oven/hob/BBQ. The best thing for us was the tennis court - it's an artificial turf court in excellent condition - played very nicely and we used it every day! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

We had a wonderful 3 weeks at the barn and were very sad to leave! As soon as we arrived, I felt myself relax. The gardens and farmland were beautiful and so peaceful, and the barn itself was thoughtfully considered, spotlessly clean, spacious and very well furnished. We had a lot of fun exploring around the farm with our 3 year old - playing down by the river and rowing the boat on one of the small lakes. It was amazing to have this on our doorstep! We visited a lot of places during our stay but my favourite was probably Boscastle - we enjoyed walking through the village through the valley to the cliffs and watching the blowhole in action. We loved the Boscastle Farm Shop & Cafe too - we sat outside enjoying the wonderful views while we ate delicious food and our little one had fun in the play area. Liz and Robert were the best hosts - we really enjoyed chatting with them and they were super responsive when we needed anything. I really hope we can return to stay again one day!

We loved are stay at no3, lovely quiet location and so peaceful, very friendly layback atmosphere in the village and being able to walk straight onto the moor, a real bonus, found parking spaces easily near the cottage. The, Taw River Inn, in Sticklepath and, The Tor, in the village were great for food. Ledford Gorge is definitely worth a visit, just magical.

Having grown up in the area, Kennel Farm is the place we choose to come back for our family holiday every year. We love the house and surroundings. Excellent location and Tanya is a perfect host. Highly recommend.

great place to stay, very quiet and beautiful area. Cottage is clean and inviting. Adorable dog too!

We chose this venue as it was recommended by Upton Barnes’s wedding venue where my son and his fiance were getting married. We were able to accommodate all of my side of the family for the wedding and the newly married couple joined us on Sunday to entertain members of the wedding party With a cooked breakfast followed by a barbecue lunch. There was plenty of space seating and parking for the approximately 25 people who visited us over the day.. Tracey was very helpful host and the house was equipped extremely well a three-year-old grandson had an enormous range of toys to entertain him. I cannot recommend this property more highly

A great place to stay for exploring the local area, with everything you need

We had lovely stay ! Beautiful, comfortable home in a picturesque setting. Very well equipped, had everything we needed. Venetia was very welcoming and helpful. Incredible value. Would visit again in an instant!

such a lovely air bnb in a beautiful part of the country. Wish we had longer there to explore. Our hosts were the absolute best. Really helpful and friendly. Recommended some really great places. Lucia was always really quick to reply. Side note, we went to their ice cream shop in salcombe and its hands down the best ice cream we've ever tasted.

The Old Stables felt like home, and is in a lovely setting. The views from the garden are lovely and you can hear the river and birds. Our stay gave us exactly what we needed, and Ian was a large part of that as he helped us feel relaxed and totally at home. It is a beautiful area, with plenty of lovely river walks and places to visit. We enjoyed relaxing in the garden, reading, and playing croquet. Ian is an excellent host and a lovely person. As someone else said one of the best places we have stayed in. And, yes, the bed was very comfortable. When the temperature rose Ian provided us with a very effective fan.

Incredibly friendly host. Clear communication from early on with plenty of information and recommendations. Beautiful property with so much to do inside, clean and comfortable living spaces with a very cosy atmosphere. Thank you Jeanette for an incredible and memorable stay for all 10 of us!
