Farmstay vacation rentals in West Devon District

We had a fantastic few days in Cornwall visiting friends. Pat and Tony’s place is lovely and in a very quiet spot. The owners were very flexible with check-in and check-out rules. There was even some homemade jam and bread for our breakfast. Tony was very welcoming. We would return any time. The place is tucked away and not very easy to find, but the instructions were clear. Using the “What3Words” app would have made it even easier. I did add the place to my favourites in the app in order to find my way back in the dark.

We had an amazing time over the bank holiday weekend! The barn was self check-in, but Fran went above and beyond to ensure everything was clearly communicated and stress-free. We arrived a bit earlier than expected, and Fran kindly allowed us to check in early, such a thoughtful gesture that made a big difference to our journey. The barn itself is stunning, with breathtaking views and plenty of outdoor space to explore. It was the perfect countryside escape. We were travelling with a 2-year-old, so the thoughtful touches like books, toys, and a stair gate were hugely appreciated. The only minor challenge was a few small, unexpected steps throughout the barn- absolutely fine for older kids and adults, but a bit tricky for our toddler to navigate. That being said, we couldn’t recommend this place more, it’s a beautiful, peaceful spot with everything you could need for a relaxing getaway.

We had a super short break at the Otter Cottage. The location is really good, well positioned for Clovelly and the Hartland peninsula to the south, the beaches (and golf courses) of Westwood Ho and Saunton plus Exmoor to the north. Sophie was really welcoming and what really struck us was the attention to detail in the cottage. Everything was well prepared and everything had been thought through to make the stay as relaxing as possible. Highly recommended!

Gorgeous place for myself partner and our nearly 3 year old and 5 month old fox red lab - all the amenities required A beautiful bedroom and relaxEd living space - the farm has plenty of space for walks and off lead enclosed field - Bude is only 20 minutes drive but for dogs Sandymouth and black rock beaches are a must visit with fab cafes x don’t be put off by not being in the centre - perfect excellent value for money- we would recommend the 16th century local pub/ eatery x

This was my second stay at Maggie’s place in Cornwall and all I can say is I wish i hadn’t left it so long. I’d forgotten just how beautiful a location it is and so so peaceful in the evenings after a long day at work. There have been a few additions to the equipment in the kitchen which made my cooking experience even easier than before. But overall…. I love it there and didn’t want to leave it at check out this morning. Thank you Maggie. See you again soon I hope.

Wonderful stay at the Megabus. My daughter and I love it - lovely location. Our 2nd stay, we look forward to visiting again. Sarah and Ian are great hosts.

We had a wonderful stay at Higher Blannicombe! The cottage is beautifully kitted out and has everything you could need for your stay. The cookies on arrival were a lovely touch and we really enjoyed the other free snacks! The views from the cottage are amazing and we loved waking up to the rolling countryside. Phil was a fab host and made check in and check out super easy. By far the best Airbnb we've ever stayed at!

Will and Gill were amazing hosts. We had an issue where we lost our car key while on a beach walk and they could not have been more helpful. Regarding the shepherd's hut itself, it was everything we hoped for. More spacious than appears I'm the photos and was more than enough room for two adults , two kids and a dog. Nicely furnished and well kitted out, it had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Hot tub was a big hit with kids and adults alike. Very private and peaceful with large field for the dog to run around , it really had everything. Would recommend in a heartbeat.

We had the most wonderful time at this beautiful cabin. It was meticulously clean, beautifully designed, and every little detail had been thoughtfully taken care of by the hosts. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely relaxed and at home. The location was peaceful and picturesque - the perfect escape. You can really tell how much care and love has gone into creating this space. We wouldn’t hesitate to come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a serene getaway.

we absolutely loved our stay at the cabin. Andy and Sam made us feel so welcome. The cabin was perfect for our little family. Our 3 year old son especially enjoyed feeding the animal, the chickens in particular. The location was spot on and the perfect mix between country and seaside with the beach being 30 minutes away. would definitely recommend.

We had a wonderful time staying at Ruby Rose. The surroundings are idyllic. Our 5 year old daughter loved checking on the chickens , collecting their eggs and ensuring they had their water topped up. The outdoor games provided were a great touch - we had quality family time. Denise was welcoming and helpful. Thank you for having us

My wife and I stayed at the lodge for our wedding anniversary and it was without a doubt a treat. The cabin and surroundings were just as described; all amenities provided, cabin itself was exceptionally clean, parking was easy with the allocated area, a very private area to ourselves as per the title of the listing, and convenient location to drive around Cornwall from. The owners (Tim & Carol), were very friendly and responsive to any queries we had prior to and through our stay. The extra plus points were the refreshments (tea, coffee, biscuits & soft drinks) provided to us in the lodge, and a beautifully maintained garden for us to enjoy a meal at while of course being treated to the view of horses in the neighbouring field. Thank you so much for having us Tim & Carol. Highly recommend a stay at Birdsong Lodge and we're sure to return on our next visit to Cornwall.

We had amazing stay at Axe Valley View for a long birthday weekend in June. The cabin had everything we needed for our stay with beautiful valley views. We especially loved how wildlife and eco-friendly it was, both inside and out. A short drive to Lyme Regis where we attended the Fossil Festival 2025 and great local hiking routes, including Golden Cap in Bridport. Alison was a lovely and welcoming host and we would highly recommend a visit.

Lovely bolthole - beautiful barn with a wonderful view over nice garden and fields. Well equipped for two people and comfy with nice living space and TV. Kitchen had everything we needed (and we did lots of cooking) and good oven/hob/BBQ. The best thing for us was the tennis court - it's an artificial turf court in excellent condition - played very nicely and we used it every day! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Always sad to leave this place having now stayed 4 times over the last 2 years. The location is ideal for us being close to our favourite beaches. The accommodation is perfect because we like our own space and appreciate local wildlife and the fantastic scenery. On this visit we watched a field mouse and rabbits right outside our window and on previous visits we saw a woodpecker and then a barn owl whilst we sat grilling sausages on the fire-pit in the secluded little garden round the back. A 5* hotel with room service is our ideal of hell…. Ruth is a great host and we always feel very welcome and looked after. We are also left alone to enjoy our privacy which is much appreciated as some hosts we’ve found to be a bit overbearing but Ruth is lovely and also very respectful. She has amazing taste and we love the rustic/natural decor. I particularly love the La Redout linen bedding ☺️ We can’t wait to return in September. Thank you Ruth as always xx

Clare was very warm and welcoming , nothing was too much trouble she even provided a beautiful warm loaf of bread on arrival. The accommodation was perfect, every little detail had been thought of. We loved the peaceful location it was the perfect place to unwind. We would highly recommend.

Having grown up in the area, Kennel Farm is the place we choose to come back for our family holiday every year. We love the house and surroundings. Excellent location and Tanya is a perfect host. Highly recommend.

great place to stay, very quiet and beautiful area. Cottage is clean and inviting. Adorable dog too!

Swallows Nest is a very attractive and comfortable place to stay and is in a perfect location for seeing the interesting historical sites in the area. Angela has thought of absolutely everything in her holiday cottage and it's clear how much creative thought has been put into it. She has ensured her visitors have a truly relaxing stay, a very comfortable bed, lovely thick, large bath towels, a kitchen equipped with every item one could possibly need and a very comfortable seating area. Outside, the lovely private garden has a table and chairs and sun loungers and one can enjoy the wonderful views. Angela and Phil are a delightful, kind, warm, friendly, welcoming couple and we really appreciated the fresh eggs and chocolates they kindly left for us. We feel very fortunate to have found such a lovely place to stay and can highly recommend it.

My stay at Frances’ was absolutely lovely- she made us feel very welcome from the offset! The place is very charming and homely- I’ll be back for sure if I return to this neck of the woods!

We had lovely stay ! Beautiful, comfortable home in a picturesque setting. Very well equipped, had everything we needed. Venetia was very welcoming and helpful. Incredible value. Would visit again in an instant!

Really lovely place and lovley scenery Nicely decorated and maintained Lots larger than we expected! You can really see the host really put efforts in maintaining the house rather than just do the bare minimum to rake in money

Great little place, good location for exploring Cornwall, great area for peace, quiet and walking the dogs.

Emma and Kevin couldn't have been more welcoming. Oystercatcher is a lovely place to stay and the private hot tub was perfect for us. Kevin made sure it was ready for when we wanted it. Touches such as the tea/coffee/ milk/Luscombe Elderflower Fizz made the visit and the homemade biscotti was perfect. Even the dog had a bag of treats. There was alot of information about the locality, including walks from the property and personal recommendations once we arrived. The location is very peaceful and the garden was beautiful. We will stay again.
