We spent just a weekend at Apple Barn but it was well worth the journey and the Bank Holiday traffic. Sylvia and Kristian were as welcoming as ever and we tucked straight into the delicious flapjacks and home pressed apple juice that the family had kindly left for us in Apple Barn. The cottage was spacious and spotless and had everything we could have needed. The fresh eggs were also delicious at breakfast from the resident chickens. We enjoyed our wander to the river for some frisbee throwing and then delicious pub lunches at The Cornish Arms and then The Dartmoor Inn. The jacuzzi was delightful with beautiful views across the valley. Oh and super comfy beds were much enjoyed. We will certainly return to this special place.

Fabulous Short BreakStayed May 2024

Booked with short notice and Sylvia was very accommodating.

Apple House was lovely and the perfect stay for us and our 3 doggies.

Nothing more relaxing after pounding the hills of Dartmoor than popping into the hot tub and watching the sunset.

Nice to get away from the hustle and bustle of life.

We will definitely be back again.

Perfect StayStayed October 2024

From the homely feel, layout, equipment, most comfortable beds in the world and the amazing garden and hot tub, to the fabulous hospitality provided by Sylvia and Kristian, Devon Country Barns is the most relaxing place. Even our labrador (Edna) cant wait to go again!

Apple House @ Devon Country Barns is fab!Stayed December 2024

Faultless! Barn immaculate and again fantastic. Cake always a welcome addition and the gift of a bottle of sparkly made our stay even more special. Hosts are always very welcoming and there is nothing that is too much trouble. The log burner was definitely well used this week.

What a way to see in the New Year!Stayed December 2024

We have just returned from a wonderful and relaxing stay at Orchard Barn. On arrival into the cosy barn, we were greeted by a sumptuous homemade cake and treats for our dog Daisy. During our stay, we enjoyed some lovely walks and explored the local area. Unwinding in the hot tub throughout our stay was a real luxury, not forgetting the nights curled up on the sofa in front of the log burner. Sylvia and Kristian were such wonderful hosts, thank you for having us. We hope to visit again soon.

Mini Break in DevonStayed December 2019

This is a such wonderful find. It was our second visit to Apple House to see in the new year and it did not disappoint. On arrival, the lovely Christmas tree, tea lights twinkling, home made cake, fresh eggs, not to mention a lovely bottle of Champagne was just the welcome we needed. The house is cosy, warm, spotless and the hot tub is a lovely luxury. Cuddling up around the wood burner with logs from the barn was a lovely way to relax. Sylvia was a wonderful host, nice to have a chat with her and Christian but she also left us to enjoy our family few days together. This is a good base to explore the local area but also to chill, unwind from the bustle of life. We love it and will definitely be back!

A wonderful way to bring in the new yearStayed January 2020

We stayed 5 nights in Meadow Barn which was perfect from start to finish! Sylvia and her family are awesome, the kids all help out with looking after the barns too! We relaxed, we explored & we were so well looked after! Our dogs enjoyed it too! We very rarely return to a property but this will definitely be a ‘go to’ place for us!

Spot on!Stayed January 2020

This place was so lovely and the perfect getaway, despite storm ciara doing her best to make it awful! Sylvia was an amazing host and was so accommodating! Lovely touches in the barn like homemade cake and fresh eggs and flowers. Will definitely go back!
