  We had a lovely stay at the Hay barn and we thought it was a beautiful property.

  Just a couple of things I’d like to mention. On arrival we took our dogs for a walk around to familiarise ourselves and the neighbours cocker spaniel decided to run out and attack my dog. My dog was on a lead and this was totally unprovoked so I think the owners either need to put a gate up or tie their dog up if it’s going to greet guests and their dogs in this manner. Secondly the bin stall which is right outside the Hay Barn and opposite the pool was a bit of an eye sore and could do with being organised a bit better as quite off putting on arrival. Thirdly the property advertises a king and queen room. The twin beds put together to make the queen do not fit together properly and I kept falling through the middle and couldn’t cuddle up to my partner. Just a suggestion but I think the electric car charger also needs to be PIN code protected or it needs a sign with instructions as to who can use to to avoid any confusion. Other than these few minor issues we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and this area of Devon is really picturesque. The garden wasn’t overlooked and there was lots of birds and nature around us. The house was well stocked with cooking utensils for those who wish to cook.

  The cottage is lovely; you enter via the back yard and back door into a roomy kitchen/diner which lacks cupboard space.

  The lounge is very comfortable and the TV has Netflix which was an added bonus. The double bed is slightly hard and uncomfortable and the shower is slow, but overall, the cottage is very good. No visitors' book to complete which is a shame as we always enjoy reading where people have been to get some tips of where to go. The village is small with a very busy main road running through the middle of it. The shop stocked everything you could possibly need for a week's holiday. No dog walking places in the village unfortunately which meant we had to walk around the very narrow country lanes first thing each morning which wasn't so safe. Harbertonford is ideal for exporing south Devon and despite being there while storm Alex raged for 2 days we managed to visit Totnes (great for shops), Bovey Tracey (great for dog walking), Dartmouth, Salcombe, Paignton and Brixham. Overall, we had a great week and would return to the cottage.

  Not off to a great start.

  The dishwasher was full of very smelly water in the bottom, apparently no one had checked that a cycle was complete. The washing machine had had the water turned off to it, so took a while to work this out & be able to use it. No airer to dry clothes on, & the drier didn't work on washing machine. Quite a few of the light bulbs weren't working & although there were details about where bulbs were kept, I don't expect to be a maintenance person the moment I arrive on holiday! The shower in the bedroom doesn't drain away properly so difficult to clean. Certainly these issues presented us with a disappointing view of our accommodation. Having paid what I feel was a lot of money for one week this property is a little jaded & tired & could do with some maintenance to justify the price

  Shippen is a fantastic apartment!

  Spotlessly clean, comfortable and just a few steps from the beach at Hope Cove. Apart from the bedroom, every room has a fantastic seaview and it was lovely to sit and watch the ever changing sea and sky. The patio was a great spot to enjoy breakfast and a coffee, again, with a seaview. The owners of the property have thought of everything you could possibly need whilst on a break and it was the most well equipped holiday let we have ever stayed in. We enjoyed some lovely meals at The Hope and Anchor - shout out to the staff there who are so very welcoming. We enjoyed a day in Salcombe which was beautiful and only a 15 minute drive away. We would highly recommend Shippen and Hope Cove for a few days away and would definitely return.

  Lovely cottage, lovely greeting- cake, flowers and milk.

  well equipped kitchen, even a knife sharpener. Only fault in kitchen was where it is half conservatory there were no blinds for the glass roof, so our dogs were a bit nervous and they barked at the wrong time of day/ night. Hot shower, nicely presented bathroom, and downstairs toilet. The two Patio steps were a bit deep. Garden is fenced adequately, could do with being a bit higher at the bottom of the garden. Next to a farmers field which was growing some kind of grass. Pleased it was not livestock, as we have young dogs who are very curious about other animals. If you want peace and bird song, with only the odd car noise, this is the place to come. Would thoroughly recommend. Would hire again, but would take our own pillows.
