We had a lovely stay at Cherry Tree Barn. The location is perfect for beaches and grabbing groceries. The hot tub was a real highlight-so private! Inside was super comfy and well-equipped. The views are stunningand the owners are genuinely friendly. Highly recommend for a peaceful getaway!
Rachel
We loved the cottage! Sitting next to that old church with gargoyles was a real treat - such a cool touch. The place felt full of history but still modern and comfy. Perfectly placed for exploringand the hot tub with prosecco on arrival was just what we needed after a day out. Our puppy adored the nearby field, which was a bonus. Definitely planning to come back soon, it was a lovely stay!
Emma
We loved this cosy little cottage tucked away in a peaceful spot, yet it's still close to the beaches. The owners’ field was handy for the dogsand everything inside was super comfy. The hot tub wasn’t necessary for us, but it’s a nice touch. Very pleased!
David
The cottage was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. We had a lovely weekend and definitely plan to return soon!
James
Lovely place, would stay again
Emma
We stayed at this lovely barn in a charming village, right next to a pretty church. The place was super comfy and really well equipped - we slept like logs in the peaceful, dark surroundings after a long day of walking and relaxing in the hot tub. The owners were so friendly and gave us good tips about the field and garden access. It’s a great spot for exploring Bideford, Instow, Northam, Braunton, Clovellyand even Bude. We’d definitely come back! Thanks a lot for a wonderful stay.
Emma
We had a lovely stay at the barn. It’s tucked away in a peaceful spot, yet super close to the Atlantic highway, so getting to local shops and places was easy. The cottage is spacious and privateand the hot tub was a real treat after busy days exploring and walking. There aren’t loads of walks nearby, but using the owner’s field was perfect for the dogs in the mornings. Overall, a great experience!
Emma T.
This cottage's location is fantastic for discovering North Devon and Cornwall. We enjoyed the cosy feel and the hot tub was a real treat after a beach day. Perfect for our family of four, including a baby and two dogs. We'd love to return!
Oliver
We found this cottage to be very nice and in a great spot for exploring North Devon. It feels really private, but sometimes it was a bit claustrophobic due to the high fences blocking the views. The large hot tub was lovely though!
Emily
We really enjoyed the excellent location, it was so peaceful! The sunroom was a lovely touch. Just a heads up, the settees are quite low, so they might not be ideal if you have mobility issues.
James
Cottage was one of the best we have stayed in. It was comfortable, spaciousand the hot tub was just great! We loved every moment there.
Emma
What a lovely location! It has everything you need for shoppingand the dog walks are only a 15-minute drive away. It's spacious and offers all the comforts for a great stay. The hot tub was definitely a bonus to unwind in every day.
Louise
We stayed in a lovely barn conversion that was of very good standard and well equipped. The genuine enclosed garden for our labradoodle was our priorityand the field nearby was great to have access to. The hot tub was a lovely bonus! The location is fantastic, being close to supermarkets and shops, plus the beautiful coast. We can definitely recommend Hartland Quay, which is stunning. It provided some much-needed healing powers from nature. Neil, the owner, was super helpful with everything, including how to use things and suggestions for places to visit. We will definitely visit again and highly recommend this place!
Laura
A peaceful, spacious and well designed holiday home in a truly stunning location. Its setting isn’t clear in the pictures. Getting around is a breeze and it's super close to Westwood Ho! beach for a lovely day out. Having 2 en-suites and 2 outside seating areas is just fantastic. We’d definitely recommend it!
George

Clara
This was absolutely lovely! The beautiful cottage had brilliantly well-equipped bedrooms with ensuite, all nicely spaced apartand the hot tub was to die for! Everything was clean and well thought out. We intend to come back, it was just wonderful. The fenced-off gardens were fab for our dogs. The area was stunning tooand we explored all over!

This place is just stunning, right near everything yet still in a lovely, tranquil area. It's genuinely dog friendly, with a fenced front and back garden plus a field for them to run around in. It was so nice to relax in the hot tub while gazing at the church. We can't wait to return!
