Fantastic property, spacious, comfortable and furnished to a very high standard, everything you need is provided, location is a working farm buts its very quiet and does not intrude in any way, we loved it.
Robert
We had a week at the property in August as a party of 10 (6 adults, 2 teenagers and 2 younger children) and found it superb. The cottage has loads of space, is very well equipped for a large group and is in a lovely location. The owners were very friendly and helpful but didn't intrude in any way on our privacy. We didn't have the best of weather, but the facilities in the property more than compensated!! There are lots of interesting places to visit in the area but do require you to drive.

Fantastic holiday in great building that had everything you could want . Remote location with great views very peaceful
Charlotte
Horslett Barn is absolutely fabulous. The decor is beautiful and everything is finished to a high standard. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need. The cinema room and pool table were a great hit as well as the hot tub which was situated in a lovely spot especially when it started to get dark as they had lights for the trees. We loved s eeing the cattle and tractors go past. The dogs are super friendly too and our dogs loved saying hi through through the fence. Perfect holiday!

Wonderful, cosy and well equipped. some of the comments from our stay this place is fantastic, this is the best kitchen we have stayed in from 2 ovens and a wine chiller to the amount of plates and cutlery no items of kitchen ware was missing.

Wow, this place was amazing! We shared a family birthday celebration in January so we could all be together in one place and it was a weekend of lovely memories.

Absolutely loved our stay here! There were 7 of us and a dog in total and there was plenty of space. You will need a car as nearest shop is a spar 10 mins away or Bude is 25 mins drive but the house has everything you could possibly need. The owners were very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Would definitely return here for our next family getaway!
Cara
This holiday home is fabulous! It has everything you could wish for! The cinema and games room is a fantastic bonus. The house itself is just perfect, we had 7 adults and 1 dog in our group and all were over the moon with the whole experience. It is a little remote so you have to drive to get anywhere but that wasnt really an issue for us.definitel y recommend a stay here!
