Nutcombe Barn

Change over day: Saturday

• What a wonderful week. Weather very kind to us and so managed to walk 100K in 6 days!! Lovely place to stay, very comfortable and everything provided to a very high standard. Fabulous views from the house and such peace and tranquility. Thank you. We would love to return to this wonderful place you have here.

• it is rare to find such an immaculately kept holiday cottage which also welcomes dogs. And fascinating to watch the yearly transformation of David's garden. I hope to see the final result one day!

• We met to celebrate the life of a loved one who had recently passed. We were an extended family and this space made a very good venue to come together again. Wonderful views and peaceful setting. Thank you.

• What a lovely relaxing week! Very lucky to have nice weather this week. We have been to some great beaches and some good local walks too. The cottage is fantastic. Really well equipped too. We are already looking forward to our return visit later this year

• We’ve enjoyed a lovely return visit to Nutcombe Cottage having previously enjoyed The Cottage and this time had a great time staying in the Barn. Everything we could wish for; like a home from home. We’ve been rock-pooling in Combe Martin, wandering in Ilfracombe, rambling around Baggy Point (would recommend if pregnant as if not after anything too challenging) and eaten ice cream in mid- January in Lynton and Lynmouth. Thank you as always for such a lovely little break. See you soon 😊

• A fantastic few days away as an extended family over the New Year. We enjoyed visiting several local beaches including Combe martin which were all wonderful. An exciting coastal walk in the fog and rain was one to remember! The three cottages were excellent with plenty of room for all. Very well equipped and safe for the kiddies of all ages, making the break most relaxing and enjoyable. The dog garden worked very well for us. Thank you for your kind hospitality, until next time

• We had a lovely week at the Barn despite the weather. It has been a comfortable cottage with all we could need. We enjoyed some excellent meals at the Black Venus in Challacombe. If you get a change, try the Duck in Port jus- superb! We also had a lovely walk on Woolacombe beach, Kofi loved chasing after his ball and all the interesting smells. The Beachcomber café was extremely dog friendly and we had a lovely lunch and they gave Kofu a sausage for his! Thank you Jackie and David for the cream tea and lovely cottage. We will return

• Sadly, only half our party were able to come, so we Skyped them to let them enjoy the beautiful view and the excellent accommodation here at Nutcombe Farm. We have enjoyed a beautiful place to stay, resting from our hectic lives, eaten far too many cakes and cream teas, but hey, that’s what Devon is about. We had a lovely welcome in the most well-appointed place to stay. Nothing was needed as everything was provided. Exmoor is a beautiful yet under-rated destination. We leave happy and rested. Thank you

• Lovely peaceful cottage with beautiful surroundings. Lucky to have had nice weather. Visited lots of seaside location. We especially liked being scared at the haunted Chambercombe Manor. The tour was informative both historically and paranormally’

• A fantastic stay here thank you! We have enjoyed staying here for a week despite the slightly wet weather and have made many memories. Great central location meant trips to Woolacombe, Croyde, Ilfracombe and Barnstaple. Having 6 children with us has been quite full on but there is plenty to entertain. Thank you again for a lovely stay 😊

• Another lovely stay, this time in Nutcombe Barn. Having been here at Easter in Cider House, we know we’d have a fab and comfortable stay. Visited our usual haunts: Ilfracombe, Woolacombe, Braunton (Squires for the BEST fish and chips), Lynton & Lynmouth, Barnstaple Pannier Market, Croyde and Bideford for craft supplies (wonderful haberdashery shops!) Thanks for a great stay. We will be Back 😊

• A delightful stay in Nutcombe Barn. Spectacular views, a great base and blessed with a week of glorious sunshine. Lovely gesture of a cream tea on arrival, thank you. Places we visited and recommend include: Lynton & Lynmouth, Woolacombe beach, Croyde, Saunton Sands, Westwood Ho and Clovelly. Delightful walks up to Watersmeet in Lynmouth, Torrs coastal walk and many more left to explore on a return visit in the near future. The Barn offers luxury accommodation, so peaceful and relaxing

• Had a wonderful week at Nutcombe Barn. Everything has been excellent! Our two Jack Russells have had the best time as well; chasing rabbits. We enjoyed Lynmouth and lunch on the way home at Hunters Inn. The weather has been fantastic so we have enjoyed sitting and taking in the beautiful views. A truly relaxing holiday. Thank you!

• We love this place! Have visited North Devon every year since 1978 and stayed in many places, but this ticks all the boxes; beauty, peace, quality, conveniently located, comfortable and stylish with character and cosiness! We heard the owl every night across the valley at dusk and the beautiful song-thrush throughout the day. Saw a kingfisher at Marwood Gardens (lovely cream teas & food) and if you don’t want to venture onto the beach, you can sit on a bench on the green overlooking it all and wait for the sunset. The stream at Woolacombe beach keeps kids entertained all day. Paradise found!!! Thank you David & Jackie for sharing! We will be back 😊

• Thank you for another wonderful stay at Nutcombe. We love the barn for its peace and tranquillity, plus the ease at which we could get to so many beautiful places. The dogs in particular loved Putsborough beach and Saunton sands. Although this was our second visit, there are still places we’d love to come back to see. We visited Heddons Mouth and Valley of the Rocks; both stunning! Croyde was so pretty and we had a wonderfully delicious cream tea at Sandleigh tearooms and then walked to Baggy point. The local chippie in Combe Martin was very tasty! We will definitely be back next year. Thank you both for a lovely stay.

• Loved the barn. Sensational views across the valley. Cosy and warm despite the sub-zero temperatures. Very comfy beds and well-equipped kitchen. Had some great walks; Watersmeet, Morte Point with the seals plus others. It snowed heavily midweek locking us in completely but had great fun helping to clear the snow drift at the front gate, which was no trivial task! Our hosts couldn’t have been more helpful. All in all, a very pleasant stay and we will return, when the weather is a little more clement.

• We loved the view and enjoyed our stay despite the weather. We saw stars that we cannot see at home!

  — Claudia & David, 17 Feb 2018

• We really loved the Barn. Best accommodation we have stayed in. Fabulous shower in the master bedroom suite. Considering the weather which caused flooding all around the area and rain every day, we had a great holiday. A great base is really important when the weather is bad’
