Tractor Barn is a real treat to stay in with unique, imaginative and interesting decor. The welcome pack was much appreciated from the lovely hosts Sarah and Andrew. Set in a quiet, idyllic spot within 2 minutes of lovely woodland walks around Wistlandpond Reservoir it was a great base for exploring North Devon and the coast and we had a very enjoyable week.

Delightful cottage, in a quiet, isolated location. Beautifully presented and provisioned. Ideal for exploring the area but come well-stocked - shops are some distance.

We had an absolutely wonderful early Spring stay at The Tractor Barn. It is beautifully presented, thoughtfully decorated and the views are absolutely incredible! Sarah and Andrew were so kind and offered recommendations for the local area. There is plenty to see and do in the local area and countryside walks right from the doorstep. We hope to return!
