Lower Cobbaton The Barn Reviews

William
The Barn is a really cosy thatched barn conversion, for up to four people, which is well equipped with an enclosed garden and adjacent field, perfect for dogs
Becky
Lovely cottage and large paddock for the dogs. Lots to do and see in the area
Matthew
Absolutely beautiful location so rural and nestled away. Cottage was clean and cozy. Fresh flowers waiting on arrival. Bed was especially comfortable. Dog walking field was great for our dogs and us. Karen the caretaker stopped by just to make sure everything was ok for us. Nice lady...will return next year for sure.
Vivienne
A lovely cottage with everything we need for a holiday. I shall be booking again for next year!
Lois
Mrs Pert (Karen), who looks after the property for the owner made us feel very welcome, and was really helpful, and full of useful information. We loved the cottage, and its remoteness, and the dogs had an absolute ball in the field that the owner kindly let us use - that was such a bonus, and one of the reasons why we chose the cottage in the first place. Be prepared for lots of narrow lane driving, and lots of reversing, you'll get plenty of practice! Have already booked for next year!!
Mark
A lovely relaxing cottage that is both comfortable and clean. We really enjoyed our 6day break. A particular favourite of ours was the secure paddock in which we were able to walk our dogs.
Caroline
The cottage is very comfortable and with the lovely honeysuckle scrambling over the balcony, the warm evenings were a real delight. The peace and tranquility were wonderful, and the garden was ideal for the dog and children as it is a secure, well-kept, fun space. Both the girls commented on how comfortable the beds were and how well they slept. They fell in love with it and mum was delighted. A real holiday. Thank-you.
Kay
Wow, what a beautiful cottage. The layout was perfect. A beautiful place. The garden was so relaxing sitting in the reclining chairs. Having 2 dogs the dog walking field was excellent for a walk with the dogs. If you are looking for relaxation and pure quiet country feel... This is your place. Thank you for making our holiday magical.
Andrew
Lovely cottage in a quiet location. Fantastic for dogs especially the adjacent field for walking. The field is totally secure as was the garden and we were confident to let the dogs walk and run off lead. Cottage had everything we needed and made for a lovely relaxing week.
Julie
Fab cottage for anyone with dogs x
Graham
A very comfortable stay with a great and safe field for the dog to run around in.
Nicola
Another peaceful stay at The Barn, Lower Cobbaton. Beautiful location, always made to feel very welcome by Karen (house manager) who pops in once per week and John (owner) when passing in the garden. Everything you need in the cottage and lovely enclosed garden which overlooks the owners beautiful meadow garden. Access to adjacent field for the dogs is such a lovely and convenient space to walk. Access to wifi in the cottage is a plus. Thank you for a lovely stay, recommended..
Gary
This was our third cider and yet again loved it. It�s a perfect break with everything you need. The flowers on arrival were beautiful as always. Thank you for a wonderful relaxing holiday.
Bruce
Lovely cottage especially if you have a dog. Happy to recommend this property.
Ken
Excellent, only 5 miles to barnstaple for large shopping. Paddock is a blessing
Nicola
Lovely secluded country location, peaceful and quiet. Everything you need in the cottage and super heating. Enclosed garden for the dogs and use of the owners field opposite is a real bonus. Very friendly owner and Karen pops in to make sure everything is ok once per week. Beautiful drive from the cottage to Barnstaple which is about 25 mins away. Great retreat thank you.
Neil
Great to stay at the barn, lovely place. My wife and I loved it. Great to see our dogs not wanting to come inside and loving the space, the field was an unexpected surprise and they loved it.... will be back !! Thank you.
Charlotte
The cottage was perfect and exactly what we were looking for. Rural location with plenty of walks for our dogs and the added bonus of a secure garden and field for us to use! It was everything that we needed for our break over Christmas and the New Year.
Graham
Adequate for our needs at short notice. Secure garden for the dogs.
Debbie
This cottage was so inviting. It was warm, well equipped. The beds were very comfortable, the drive for 2 cars was great. With the added bonus of an exercise field for our dogs, they didn�t want to come home! We will return
Michaela
The sining is not that Clare, but if put in the tank museum in your phone it's easy, just a stone throw away. The garden is very secure for your dogs, and the dog field is quite big just round the corner. Just what we needed. Very peaceful, the village shop has what you need the nearest supermarket is tesco about 6.5 miles away. The cottage itself is lovely the only downside is the twin room smelt fustey. We will be booking again.
Ian
We like it so much that we have already booked again for next year.
Vivienne
We have enjoyed a second visit to the cottage and will be booking again for next year. The location is perfect for us and the facilities are excellent. The cottage is warm, comfortable and very well equipped. The fresh flowers throughout provided by Mrs Pert, the caretaker, made us feel very welcome. Thank you.
Adele
Cottage was perfect for us and our three dogs and was truly dog friendly. Garden was great and the use of the paddock was lovely for the dogs
Linda
What a perfect break! The cottage is lovely and in a gorgeous setting. The balcony is scented with the surrounding roses and honeysuckle�gorgeous. It is the most dog friendly place I have been and the use of the owners lovely field made it an easy relaxing break with my 3 dogs. Karen was so helpful and the owner charming. Can�t wait to return - thank you so much.
Angela
Had a wonderful stay here really peaceful with a balcony to sit on and catch the evening sun Garden was secure for the dogs and the dog field was perfect for 4 collies and much bigger than I was expecting !
Jason
Really loved my stay here, as did my dogs. It was great to have use of a secure field for them and the cottage garden was a decent size too. It's a really lovely barn conversion, well equipped (including a perfectly appropriate bathroom for a cottage type barn conversion), plus excellent to have a balcony to sit out on, in the event of a wet lawn. This a wonderfully remote location, perfect for myself and my dogs and I have every intention of returning.
Tania
We had a wonderful week in this delightful cottage which is situated in a beautiful quiet location. There are numerous beaches and towns, withon a relatively short driving distance. The field for the dog was an added bonus as the garden area isn�t as big as our dog is used to and was ideal for giving him a run about before we set out for our days adventures. We certainly left a lot less stressed than we had arrived!
Andrew
Lovely to find fresh flowers in every room on arrival, never experienced that before. This is definitely the most dog friendly holiday cottage we have stayed at, the paddock for running the dog was an unexpected delight. We will certainly be back.
Emma K
Absolutely wonderful cottage , clean with all you need for your holiday. Mainly carpet in the property which was much appreciated as we had a disabled dog and another who has had knee problems, no slipping!. Very grateful for that, thank you.. The added bonus of the use of the owners pretty paddock was much appreciated by our 4 dogs. You need to drive to get to shops etc and through lanes but that was the beauty of having quiet surroundings. We couldn't have asked for anything more.
Heather
Lovely little barn, little extra bits included such as washing up liquid dishwasher tablets and hand soap. Very well equipped and having the washing machine made having wet dog towels easy to get clean. The cottage is in a lovely location and very quiet. The garden was safe for the dogs and would have been lovely if we could of sat outside but the weather was a little cold. The price was very reasonable and would definitely recommend to people wanting to escape the busy city.
Vivian
A beautiful, comfortable, homely and warm place to stay. Fresh flowers in every room was a lovely touch. The garden is safe and secure perfect for our dogs to play. We enjoyed a glass of wine on the balcony when the weather permitted. The dogs enjoyed their walk in the paddock which had been mown especially for our stag. We would definitely recommend Cobbaton Barn for a comfortable holiday for all the family especially the four legged family members who had a fabulous time.
Scott
We had a brilliant time , loved the cottage , the only downfall was the bathrooms ,which needs up dating , our dogs loved the paddock and the gardens , we found the cottage lovely and cosy , and would definatly come back
