    Nothing negative to say at all !

    I had a lovely 3 night stay here with my daughter and spaniel. The accommodation is exceptionally clean, comfortable and well equipped. I liked the layout of the barn itself with its private garden and patio area. The owners are lovely: they provided really nice extra touches like croissants, jam and fresh milk on arrival and were very responsive to our needs. It's in a gorgeous location, with the gorge and wonderful walks on the doorstep. Loved the nearby Castle Inn pub too. Highly recommend and will come back!

    Fantastic cottage. Perfect for a couple. Pet friendly. They were very helpful with arranging that. Super clean. It smells amazing when you walk in. Very well equipped kitchen. Cosy feel, yet spacious living area, bathroom and bedroom. Right near a fantastic pub. Lovely view from upstairs too. Highly recommend.

    Located in a beautiful village, with stunning views, and Dartmoor on your doorstep. Lydonian barn is extremely well presented and perfect for dogs too. Nice touch was the pain au chocolate, the fridge had jams, butter and milk. Tea coffee and sugar provided. Really lovely an unexpected start to our 25th Wedding anniversary

    Ummm nothing.

    My partner and I have just enjoyed a wonderful two night break at Lydonia barn, every detail was thought of, the barn is small but beautifully formed. Lydford is the most beautiful village, so quiet sitting in the garden. Having never been before I loved the historical area. Our hosts were friendly and made us feel very welcome. Thank you.

    I would like to have the extra fee for the dog included, I forgot to pay it, but easily settled up after.

    We loved the cosy barn, it was really comfy and the little touches made it (jam, marmalade, milk and butter). Even toiletries provided.

    Everything was great!

    A home from home, the cottage has everything we needed. Very comfortable and clean. We were a family of 4 with two daughters aged 9 and 12 and they both slept comfortably in the sofa bed downstairs. Perfect location to explore and hike in Dartmoor. It's very close to Brat Tor and Lydford Gorge (The Devil's Cauldron is walking distance from the cottage). There is also a nice pub which is walking distance too. We did the following while here (we stayed 5 days): - Walked up to Brat Tor (lots of wild ponies when we went). - Lydford gorge - Hike to Tavy Cleave waterfall (great for wild swimming if warm enough) - Hike from Meldon reservoir to Black Tor. - Visited Brenton Church, great to watch the sunset. - Drove through the moors and went to Haytor Rocks. We had a fantastic stay!

    I wasn’t very good with the log burner and my fires kept going out so at times I got a little cold. This didn’t affect my overall enjoyment of the property, which was superb.

    The cottage was cosy. I particularly liked the upstairs space and the bed was very comfy.
