This is the second time we have stayed at Little Barn & it did not disappoint. Spotlessly clean & so comfortable & cosy. We loved feeding the birds every day & topped feeders up before we came home. Lucky enough to see the herd of deer opposite. Watch out for the bat migration every evening from the next door cottage. The area is so quiet & you canRead more fully unwind here. Thank you for our lovely goodies on arrival. Dulverton has everything you need for supplies. Highly recommend Little Barn. Hide

I booked this property for myself and my large dog as it was dog friendly. It was the perfect location to discover the surrounding area. We visited many places for walks and river dips. Tarr steps, Marsh Bridge, Withypool, Watersmeet, Wimbleball Lake and Wistlandpound Reservoir. We also spent an afternoon in Dulverton where the shops were dog frienRead moredly, had lunch at the Bridge Inn and another dip in the river too. The barn itself had so many home comforts, was a perfect holiday. Hide

A delightful cottage in a quiet rural location away from the hurly burly of every day life. Good location to explore Exmoor North Devon and West Somerset. Dulverton is just 2 miles away and has a useful selection of shops and places to eat out or take away. Can recommend the fish and chip shop.
