Quantock Barn

As regular renters here in the UK, in Europe and the USA we have to say this property and the owners are really outstanding.

In addition if one is looking for a beautiful and peaceful stay in outstanding natural countryside - this is for you.

We had the most wonderful stay here, everything was perfect.

The barn is beautiful, spacious and well kept. The views are stunning and the host Izzy was super helpful. Definitely recommend and will be back ourselves.

Quantock Barn was very well situated for many local attractions.

The property was a delight to stay at and had everything we need for a fantastic break. Our hist was always on hand if we needed anything and was very friendly . We will definitely be staying there again

Can't fault anything!

What a wonderful place to stay- lovely accommodation and really clear check in information and information about the property from the host Izzy! We loved the hot tub and being on one level was perfect with a toddler running around. In a beautiful scenic setting and within short car journeys of lots of local attractions. Would recommend!

What a great place!

Spacious, stylish and quiet - we loved it! So much space inside and outside. The grassy areas were great for the kids to play, and the views of the woodland and countryside were stunning - particularly from the hot tub! Izzy was a great host - perfect communication but also completely unintrusive. Thanks so much for the lovely stay!!

The barn was beautifully furnished with great views.

The kids loved seeing the goats and hearing the owls at night. It is a really secluded location but easy drive to lots of interesting places and good places to eat. The owners are helpful and responded to any queries quickly.

We stayed at Quantock for one week, 11th-28th July.

What a place! You couldn’t wish for a better place to stay in. From the quality of the barn, the views, the hot tub, one of the best equipped kitchens we had in a rental. You really can’t fault it! (Well the only things you could fault it was it could do with another TV as on a rainy day the kids/mother in law raced to watch the only TV! Air fryer please!) The photos don’t really do it justice tbh, the living area is massive, all the bedrooms are very generous and the en-suites are brilliant. Kids loved the hot tub which was spotless. The outside space is again massive. The Goats were great viewing when out in the paddock. We could have done with a couple more days as a week isn’t long enough tbh. The welcome pack was a nice touch especially the homemade lemon drizzle cake! If you stay here you won’t be disappointed, 9.5 out of 10, would have got 10/10 if there was another TV

Absolutely perfect property for 3 Oldies!

Apart from a step onto the front porch it’s flat everywhere inside which was excellent for my husband who has mobility problems but we didn’t have to worry about trip hazards at all.I have nothing negative to say about this property. Very comfortable beds, and lovely to have our own en-suite bathroom with a walk in shower. The kitchen area has a huge island which I would absolutely love to have in my kitchen! Wonderful views, easy parking and only a mile and a half from the A30. A beautiful part of Devon and I would thoroughly recommend this property to oldies like us to families Thank you Izzy!

Fabulous accommodation in a great location.

The barn was spacious, well equipped, beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. The information provided in advance & the welcome goodies on arrival were much appreciated. Many thanks for a lovely break.

What a lovely place to stay!

Couldnt fault the accommodation, it had everything we needed and more, finished to a high level and very clean. Lovely welcome package on arrival, very thoughtful. Hot tub and outside area were perfect after a long day at the beach, a peaceful place to rest and enjoy the surrounding countryside. Izzy went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect, thank you! Already recommended to several friends who are looking to book next year.

Absolutely lovely cottage, very well equipped.

Beds and sofas were really comfortable and all soft furnishings were high quality. Outdoor space is also very nice, hot tub was lovely. Welcome pack of local produce and a home made cake were very much appreciated and all delicious, especially the lemon drizzle cake! Owners were friendly and nothing seemed too much trouble for them.

Beautiful property in a lovely location.

Very comfortable and has everything you need. Izzy, the owner and her partner, left us a yummy lemon drizzle cake and fresh bread plus wine, eggs, milk and butter. They have goats which are quite friendly and like a head rub. Loads to do being on the borders of Devon, Dorset and Somerset - National Trust and Historic Houses places to visit. Abbotsbury Sub Tropical gardens, Montacute House, Castle Drogo, Forde Abbey and Mapperton House to name a few. Note: if you're a light sleeper, take some ear plugs as there is a farm across the field with a noisy cockerel.

We had a fantastic 7 night stay here, the barn is beautiful.

Finished and furnished to a high standard. Very clean and had everything we needed for a gorgeous stay. Location is great and close to so many places, Quantock barn was the perfect way to relax after exploring the coast each day. We will definitely return :)

The barn was exactly as described, very spacious, warm and well equipped.

Good beds, high quality bedding and lovely big fluffy towels. Sadly the weather was not great for our stay so we didn’t make much use of the outside space. However the peace and quiet was a real treat. Birdsong, woodpeckers and owls couldn’t hear a road at all. Ellie was on hand if needed and came to check the jacuzzi once, but text first which we appreciated. Good information folders in the property including a folder with manual for all the appliances and heating. Ellie also left an extremely generous welcome hamper - thank you! This property would very comfortably accommodate 6 and you’d not be on top of each other, would definitely recommend.

Beautiful home for our Christmas holiday.

We enjoyed a very comfortable stay with good quality bedding and towels. The large open plan living area was so lovely for family dining and living. All the bathrooms had high quality showers and facilities. We loved the hot tub and the Christmas tree and decorations made everything very festive. Would highly recommend Quantock Barn.

We had a great stay at Quantock Barn, Stockland.

Set in the heart of the Blackdown Hills, we were surrounded by the peaceful picturesque views. It is within easy reach of the beaches and local village. The property was extremely spacious, very comfortable and with excellent cleanliness and amenities in all areas. We were very reliant on an accurate description of the property, as it was essential that there was sufficient space for a large family group, that included an elderly member of our family - it fitted this perfectly. I would highly recommend this property to others.

This is a fantastic place to stay and I can’t recommend it enough.

Quantock Barn is exactly as you see in the pictures - the property is huge and we loved the well-equipped open-plan kitchen and lounge area. Having all en-suite bedrooms was a lovely addition and is generally a rare find with holiday lets. Everywhere was very clean and really nicely decorated. On arrival we’d been left welcome treats of cheese, milk, fresh bread, egg and biscuits which was a really nice touch. We also enjoyed the luxury of a hot tub and loved having the four goats in the paddock opposite (they were there sporadically and were surprisingly quiet so no worries of being disturbed!) We accidentally broke a wine glass while we were there, which I reported and apologised for and Izzy (the owner) was round the next day with a replacement. She also checked the hot tub was ready to use and was generally very welcoming and friendly. The barn is secluded and peaceful, but well placed for trips to the countryside and the coast (we travelled to Sidmouth and Lyme Regis and Branscombe during our stay). All in all, a real standout place to stay.

Beautiful spacious barn with the most generous welcome pack we've ever seen.

The barn is very comfortable, a separate chair in the lounge area would be useful as would a washing line. We were so grateful for all the fans as it was extremely warm despite all the rain. The walks in the woods and along the lanes were wonderful, especially spotting the deer and rabbits. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Quantock Barn.

We had a great stay at Quantock Barn last week, very peaceful, lots to do in the area.

The only problem we encountered was hundreds of flies outside the front of the property our cars were covered and we were unable to open the windows or doors of the property for a few days, there had been a lot of rain and the flies seemed to be less after 3 or 4 days so unsure whether it was the weather or something else. Other than that lovely place to stay.

The barn is absolutely stunning and had everything we could possibly need for a our week away.

The interior is beautiful, very comfortable and the bath and rainfall showers are really luxurious. We were, however, really disappointed by the hot tub as it went green part way through our stay. I had to scrub the inside of it (as far as I could reach) but it still had a green tinge to it, despite us adding more chlorine tablets as advised. I've never stayed anywhere where I was required to clean and maintain the hot tub during my stay so this brought down our overall rating of an otherwise lovely holiday.

A wonderful stay at Quantock Barn.

Five star spacious accommodation with luxury feel and immaculately clean. Property had everything we needed for our weeks stay. Bedrooms with comfortable beds and luxury linen and pillows, bathroom with plenty of towels. Lovely touch with hamper on our arrival and even a comfy bed for the dog and blanket too. When we arrived the property was lovely and warm with lights on and hot tub was ready. Beautiful secluded and scenic location. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be returning. Thank you for a wonderful time spent in Devon x

Couldn’t fault it ….

Lovely place to stay.

The Barn is absolutely fantastic.

It's in a stunning location and is equipped with everything you could possibly need to live there, let alone stay for a week. Everything provided is top quality. We really enjoyed our stay. If I were asked to recommend enhancements I would ask that the fridge freezer be looked at as it very noisy at times and we would have preferred that the rear patio/ garden be fenced off so that we could have let the dog out unattended without fear of her wandering off, I think the same could apply to small children. Congratulations to the owners, they have a beautiful property.

Really lovely place.

Everything needed for a great break. Lovely hamper on arrival at this really well presented house. Huge communal area and bedrooms complete with comfortable linen and towels. Heating was trivky to.sort out, but Izzi helped with that. Hottub at sunrise and sunset....priceless.

This is an extremely well equipped property.

A lot of thought has gone into the furnishings and the kitchen utensils. All the extra things I usually bring with me were not required as it is all there - extra toilet rolls, washing up and clothes tablets, baking foil etc. The accommodation is all on one level and beautifully appointed, the kitchen has enough cupboard space with a big fridge and freezer. Plenty of room for our very large dog to spread out and the field around the property was perfect for her to explore whilst we enjoyed the hot tub. The location was ideal for our day trips out to all the wonderful beaches along the Jurassic coastline and there are several farm shops relatively close for any special food shops required and plenty of little towns. Exeter City is only a 30 minute drive away. A perfect place which we would happily return back to.

We had a lovely stay.

The internet was down in the area and the owner went out of their way to try and sort this for us even though it was completely out of their control. The property is lovly and the photos really don't do it justice. Would highly recommend.

Well appointed bungalow.

“Hunt the cutlery draw” was fun. The towel racks in the showers should be relocated, a constant head hitting threat where they currently are situated. Great location made for a good holiday. Would be more than happy to return. Thank you.

We have had such a lovely time here with our children, their partners and our dog.

The house is spacious, well equipped, the hot tub was great for chilling after a visit to the beach or surrounding places to visit. The owner put fans in all rooms which were much appreciated as we booked the hot week! The outside with the meadow was perfect for our dog and we saw deer in the meadow too. The bi- fold doors need a bit of attention. Lot’s of places nearby to visit and Dalwood Vinery was fabulous if you like wine and a giggle. Highly recommend for a chill with plenty of places to visit also. Thank-you we have made some lovely memories while staying here.

Lovely Home .

Would recommend a new lid for the hot tub and the bio fold doors need adjusting but apart from that the accommodation is lovely . Everything you need is there

This property is a real credit to the owner.

It was so lovely, perfect for what we needed, beds were so comfy with top quality bedding. Everything you needed throughout the property. The setting and views were gorgeous. It was such a peaceful location not too far from everywhere. We have already said we will Book it again. Thank you for the welcome basket Such a lovely thought

The property is not suitable for warmer months, it gets far too hot, which is made worse by there being no air con to cool it down and if you try and open a window to get any breeze through, you are attacked by countless flying bugs, it’s impossible.

Maybe some fans would help but due to the nature of the building it would just be pushing hot air around. The bedrooms lacked storage, a set of draws would’ve been helpful rather than just one wardrobe each. The inside of the house was mostly clean, the light fixtures hadn’t been cleaned and the windows hadn’t either. The kitchen was lacking baking trays and pans (you definitely couldn’t come close to cooking a roast) but the hot tub made our nails green so we emptied it and cleaned it ourselves, it was filthy. The grass outside the property is only about mowed about a fifth (maybe less) of what the pictures display, the rest is long grass that you can’t walk through even with wellies on.
