Accommodation

From the chocolate box frontage adorned with mature wisteria, Barberry Farm Cottage opens into a spacious family home.

Contemporary, warm, and styled in muted earthy tones and bright touches, the open-plan living space and kitchen are stylishly laid out - two plush sofas let you soak up the garden views with floor-to-ceiling French windows of two sides.

The kitchen island makes meal prep a social occasion and is well-equipped for every mealtime. Start the morning with Nespresso coffee at the breakfast bar, or gather around the solid wood dining table.

Upstairs there are four wonderfully-comfortable bedrooms, three of which are en suite. The master bedroom features a superking-size bed, which can be configured as two singles. Bedrooms two and three benefit from kingsize beds, and each has an en suite shower room. Up another flight of stairs and, within the white-painted eaves, is bedroom four, also with an en suite shower room.


Garden

The spacious garden has a broad lawn and is also a wildlife haven, stretching into the woods and hills beyond. A pond, a stream, and wild zones are left to nature. Thoughtful sculptures add further character to this broad open space.

A large terrace patio has generous seating to sit back and view the garden below. Dine in the dappled sunlight under the wood pergola, the refectory table big enough for all to gather round.


Parking

There is ample parking on the driveway - enough for 5 to 6 cars.


Nearby

You're a short drive from two great (award-winning) waterside pubs: The Maltsters Arms and The Watermans Arms in Tuckenhay - ideal for a hearty meal after a country walk. Historic Totnes is a 20-minute drive, as is the closest beach, Blackpool Sands.

We had a fantastic stay at Barberry Farm Cottage, the house was amazing, larger than we expected and you could feel the warmth of it having been a carefully curated and loved space. The living dining space is just gorgeous and was perfect for a family get together of all ages! We hope to be back again, thank you for a brilliant stay! Highly recommend.

We had such a lovely stay and wish it could have been longer! The house is beautiful and has the perfect layout for going away with family or friends, with the large open plan kitchen/dining/lounge area. We also had 3 dogs with us and there was still plenty of space! The beds and pillows were comfy and the kitchen was well equipped too. The view from the balcony is beautiful and it was so peaceful and quiet. Georgia was friendly and helpful and was only a message away if we needed anything. Thank you again for a lovely short getaway in your stunning home!

We had such a wonderful stay here while celebrating my dad’s 80th birthday. All eight of us were constantly complimenting how beautiful the house and grounds are, it really is stunning! There was plenty of space for everyone, and even our puppy had the best time running around the garden (she definitely didn’t want to leave!). The location was perfect too, just a short drive to Dartmouth and the beaches we wanted to visit. We’d happily recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable stay in the area.

Beautiful cottage with stunning gardens and lots of space for kids/dogs to run around and explore. Georgia was really welcoming and made sure we had all we needed. The surrounding area is stunning but the only downside is that the cottage itself is located about a mile out of the village down very narrow windy country lanes - beware if you have carsick kids like mine!
