Area
Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the stunning Start Bay coastline, Dartmouth is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Devon. It offers a stunning waterfront, ancient narrow streets lined with boutique shops, restaurants and art galleries plus many popular events such as the annual Dart Music Festival, Dartmouth Food Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta. This historic town boasts interesting landmarks, such as Dartmouth Castle, the Britannia Royal Naval College, and the National Trust’s Greenway House just a short ferry ride away. There are many interesting cycling and walking routes around Dartmouth, including the South West Coast Path, the Dart Valley Trail and plenty of quiet country lanes. A trip on the Dartmouth Steam Railway through the rolling countryside to Paignton is a must, and so is a boat or ferry trip across to Kingswear, on to Brixham, or down the river to the village of Dittisham. For those seeking sandy beaches, there is a wide choice in the South Hams area such as Blackpool Sands and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular beaches just a stone's throw from Dartmouth.

Region
Devon, with its quiet country lanes, patchwork of lush green fields and sleepy villages is not to be missed. Stately home lovers will be spoiled and why not finish with a scrumptious Devonshire cream tea?

There is a recurring problem with the hot water supply according to previous guestbook comments.. When the central heating is on, there is virtually no hot water. If you turn the central heating off you can manage with hot showers, but a bath is out of the question. There are several plug in heaters which kept the property nice and warm. Otherwise, the barn was spacious and quite well kitted out. It is in the middle of no-where and walks are only on the surrounding country lanes - but it does mean it's also nice and quiet. We did raise the hot water issue with Coast and Country and they were very helpful and hopefully will sort out the water problem for the next guests.

Little Cotton Barn is a little hard to find, it is better to use goggle earth to pinpoint it more accurately.. When you get to a five barred gate which says to be kept closed at all times you have to go through it to access the Barn. Very suitable for us and our son, daughter in law and two girls aged 4 and 6. We didn't find all the internal steps a problem as did a previous review. All the equipment worked well the only big downside was the lack of hot water, we were not able to use the middle bathroom bath or the ensuite shower. Fortunately our granddaughters were only with us for the long weekend so we managed with the shower in the utility room which was an electric shower. Good value for the money we paid (£100 reduction) but would hesitate to use it if it were more. Having said all that there was loads of space and very comfortable beds. We would, price dependent, like to use it again and try to do a little bit more walking in this lovely area. Thank you.
