We had a fantastic stay at The Tractor Barn. The cottage was spotless, well-equipped and incredibly peaceful, making it the perfect place to relax. The location is ideal for exploring both Exmoor and the North Devon coast, while the surrounding countryside is beautiful. We especially appreciated the comfortable accommodation and the attention to detail throughout. We’d happily recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet countryside escape and would definitely love to return.

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.
