The location was perfect for us as we like to be fairly remote when we go away in the UK.. The cottage was lovely and had everything we wanted and with the garden being secure it was perfect for the dog. There was also loads of information about walks in the area which was very helpful.

The whole holiday from start to finish was perfect, lovely welcome as always from Sarah and Barry the hosts.. The eggs, jam and home made shortbread were lovely touches as was the milk in the fridge. The barn was very clean and lovely to stay in. Will definitely be back next year. And would strongly recommend helpfully holidays/ Sykes holidays.

We thought this was a fantastic cottage, one of the best we have stayed in.. The parking area, size of the garden, the position, the cottage itself and things like the hot tub and ensuites were super. Only one small negative is the road from Moretonhampstead to the cottage, not for the inexperienced driver or faint hearted! A challenge each time we used it. Great owners who were very friendly but also allowed us our privacy.

Brilliant holiday at Butterdon again, everything is perfect!

Ms Keen

Wonderful peaceful location and property almost met the expectations.. One minor issue was one of the bedrooms had no wardrobes to hang clothes however; there were coat hangers on the back of the door so we used the clothes airer that was downstairs to hang other clothes on, maybe a thought to consider putting a wardrobe in for future use. Everything else you would need was available and a nice touch was to have milk, eggs and flowers upon arrival. The owner was very helpful and said at the start if we needed anything to contact her. No signal on phones until you reached the bottom of the road and did not like the single lane road again however, if you wanted a complete rest and peaceful week this is definitely the place to stay, plenty of space inside as well as outside, would recommend this property and enjoyed our stay there.

A great place to stay to explore Devon, close to the village with plenty of pubs and shops and a good base to visit the area. The Barn feels secluded and peaceful with a huge garden to the rear which was ideal for our two springer spaniels and 16 month old little boy to run around safely. Lots of room inside with the open plan layout and two good sized bedrooms. Everything is well kept and in good condition. The owners were very friendly and close by next door, homemade shortbread and tea and coffee tray was a nice touch when we got there too. The hot tub was ideal after a day out walking. Our little boy left a piece of his train track behind which was kindly mailed back to our home address before we noticed it was missing. We started looking for another cottage in Devon for 2018 but decided not to bother and booked up again at Butterdon.

Excellent secluded barn conversion at the end of a very narrow lane. Fantastic views over the moors. There is a hot tub at the side of the barn which Is of great benefit after wandering through woods and forests. The barn itself is large and open plan on the ground floor - kitchen facilities are good seating area is well laid out as well. Upstairs there are two large double bed rooms -- very comfy beds and linen, both bed rooms have good size en-suites. We walked into Moretonhampstead a few times across the field -- 30mins approx. the Union pub is very good the food is great - ate there a couple of times - good prices VFM. -- also try Berto's (Italian) opposite the Bell Inn - check opening times great little place. Overall nice place - great location - moorland views...

This is a fantastic barn conversion with lots of added luxuries. The hot tub was fantastic and we went in 4 nights out of 7 under the stars. Equally lovely was the wood burner which was all set up and ready to go. Huge comfy beds and gorgeous quilts the place was absolutely spotless. It is a lovely location close to dartmoor for lots of walking from as little or as much as you wanted. Sarah and Barry could not have been more helpful, you knew where they were if you wanted anything but was also given the privacy wanted. We will definitely be returning in the not to distance future and I would recommend this barn to anyone. Also The Union pub and Gateway Tearooms in Moretanhampstead where very dog friendly and the food was delicious, don't miss out !!
