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!

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!

The barn is extremely well presented and immaculate. It is equipped with everything you need and there is so much attention to detail including being decorated for Christmas which added to the whole experience. After a stressful week, it was everything we needed and more. Sylvia was very welcoming and is an excellent hostess. The cake on arrival was absolutely divine and it was the most perfect getaway. I could not fault anything.
Thank you for a lovely stay.
Just come back from 4 fabulous nights in Meadow Barn, with our two Flatcoats. We never go anywhere twice: there’s too much of the world to see! But we returned after our first visit last year and will go again next. It’s that good. The quality of the barns, of the furnishings, and the care and attention to detail that Richard and Ute put into their property is first class. And when you add the beautiful countryside, including the steam at the bottom of the meadow, you have a perfect getaway for you and your dogs.
We stayed in Meadow barn for four nights as a mini-moon and had a wonderful stay. Meadow barn was excellent value and presents as a superb, well equipped and exceptionally clean barn conversion for two. We brought our greyhound Tom who loved having so many walks so close by! Excellent place for dog owners as there are even kennels on site and lots of space for dogs to walk and run. The hot tub was also spotlessly clean and well maintained, perfect for relaxing under the stars and a lovely outdoor snug with seating and heater is perfect to make the most of the lovely meadow views. We had a lovely stay and will definitely be recommending to friends and family!
We have just returned from a 4 night stay in Meadow Barn and cannot over emphasize how lovely this whole experience is. From the heart felt welcome to the final fond farewell – we were delighted. The surrounding countryside, in it’s newly acquired autumnal colours, is stunning and a trip across the near border into Cornwall with its rugged coastline is a must.
Ute and Richard are the perfect hosts although they wouldn’t allow us to bring away their dog “Scrumpy” with whom we fell in love from the outset.
There ought to be a rating above excellent for this place – perhaps it should be FABULOUS !
We have stayed in Devon county barns a number of times, each time as good as the last, the barns are fantastic, clean and well supplied, the Hosts Sylvia and Chris are the most friendly people you will meet, helpful and considerate these barns are so good and I feel so relaxed after staying that we have booked for 2025 already.

We were so happy to return having stayed in Orchard barn previously, we decided to go to Meadow barn this time. Again we were lucky and had the rare treat of having the place to ourselves, there was another booking later in the week but we still didn’t notice them. We explored all around the area and more Cornwall side this time. Everywhere is pretty much dog friendly which is such a relief. We love the hospitality of Sylvia and her family. We love the most delicious cake (our favourite, lemon and blueberry sponge) and the wine and fresh eggs! Our dog Goldie had the run of the place and enjoyed swimming in the creek/river bed everyday and zooming around the paddocks. The hot tub is a real bonus and lovely to get into after a long day of hiking and climbing the Tors. I find it very hard to relax on holidays but found that being in the country and having this peace and quiet always helps us both to unwind… (We never want to come back to London).. We cant thank country barns and Sylvia enough… If anyone has any doubts because its self catering there are plenty of food/dinner options nearby within 5 minutes so don’t hesitate!

We had another fantastic week at DCBs. Sylvia is a wonderful host and extremely helpful and lovely to chat with. Perfect place to stay with dogs, none of us wanted to leave! Thank you so much for all the fresh eggs, wine, flowers and delicious homemade cake. We look forward to our next stay.

We love Devon Country Barns and can’t recommend it highly enough. This was our 7th visit and definitely won’t be our last. The barns have everything you could possibly need for a home away from home break but if you did need anything else all you’d need to do is ask; Sylvia goes above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. Nothing is too much trouble.

I went down for a family get together, over the new year with other family members hiring different cottage.
Communication prior to arriving was excellent, with warm, kindness and enthusiasm projected by Sylvia the owner.
The location is easy to find, and set in a stunning, tranquil and relaxing environment.
I was met by Sylvia, who is charm personified. What a lovely welcoming lady.
The cottage is well equipped, large fridge freezer, dishwasher, washing machine.The decor is considered and to quote a French term that has no equivalent in English is sympa. It’s appropriate to its surroundings.
Underfloor heating an added luxury, a very comfortable bed, with a charming bed and bathroom.
A lovely patio, with a terrific view, coupled with a hot tub finishes it off nicely.
I little welcome pack, with cake,eggs and a bottle of bubbly is a lovely touch. There is also a welcome pack for dogs.
Plenty of charging points for EV’s .
This experience has protected Devon Barnes to the top of my list for future visits, and I have already passed on the details to some of my friends and colleagues.
I hope to return soon, and become a regular visitor.
Thank you.

Just back from a long weekend staying in Meadow Barn, great location and very peaceful and quiet. The cottage had simply everything for a luxurious stay and the hot tub and snug were amazing. Thank you to Sylvia for all the lovely treats, the apple juice made from your own apples was delicious and we were also treated to freshly laid eggs for breakfast. We shall definitely return, maybe a summer trip next time to make use of the BBQ.
