On arrival,wasn't expecting it to be quite so remote,but once we got into the swing of things ie relaxing and getting away from it all this was the perfect retreat.the best cottage we have stayed in by far and a short walk across 2 fields to a spectacular coastline.a great location and only a short drive to some great sandy beaches,would defiantly recommend the barn and warm welcome received. |

My partner and our 2 children aged 11 and 14 were very impressed with the barn we stayed in. The rooms were very well decorated, a good size and very well equipped. Seldon was very welcoming and... more |

Very comfortable and well eqipped barn in a beatiful garden setting. Really appreciated being so close to the SW coastal path in a quieter part of Devon. The owners were very helpful without being intrusive. |
