About this property

Outstanding barn conversion close to sea

High Barn is an outstanding barn conversion using large beams from 18th century ships. A second barn is used as a comfortable well-lit large games room with table tennis, wood-fired stove and new roof.

Situated in a Designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in South Devon, it is just one mile from the spectacularly beautiful and unspoilt Erme estuary. Wonwell beach on the estuary offers vast expanses of sand and is perfect for swimming, paddling and fishing nets at low tide and windsurfing at high tide. Nearby there are more beaches and coves as well as fine cliff top walks. The National Trust path runs along the coast line and crosses the estuary, a Site of Special Scientific Interest with fascinating birdlife. High Barn sleeps up to 8 adults/children and is privately owned. During the summer it is let on a weekly basis, Friday to Friday. In winter, it is available either for a full week, or for a weekend.

Lovely Barn

We had a lovely stay at High Barn, it’s fully of charm and character, fully equipment, a few items need updating, ie Iron and ironing board and frying pans no longer non-stick. Everything else was fine. We had never been to Devon before and it was great exploring. There was lots of information at property to help us get around. We had a really lovely Sunday Lunch at The Dolphin Inn, apparently new owners, they were very friendly the price was very reasonable. We would highly recommend.

Great cottage, with everything we needed.

Enjoyed our stay, and cottage was well appointed. Everything worked well, except the en-suite shower- but we were warned. Would we return? Yes.

Lovely week in Devon

We had a great week in Devon exploring the area around the south coastline. Although we enjoyed staying at High Barn there were a few issues with the property, the main being that it wasn’t particularly clean, old cobwebs covered in dust, dead bugs all the way up the stairs and on windowsills and behind curtains, the high chair straps were mouldy and we had to take them off and scrub them clean. Also lots of the crockery and ceramic cookware was chipped and stained where the glaze had cracked. None of these were major issues and we didn’t bother the owners with them. The bathrooms could also do with updating, particularly the en-suite shower which was very poor. We understand that it’s an old property full of character but it did feel rather neglected. Overall it’s a great place to stay but could be improved with a little time and money spent on it and a thorough deep clean, especially considering the price we paid for a single week.

Lovely house and great location

Very comfortable house, pretty enclosed garden, very useful games barn, very comfortable beds in all rooms - one twin room is small for 2 adult size teenage kids ( would be fine for smaller kids) but all the rest of the rooms are spacious. Lovely walks nearby and great for visiting various beaches and other estuaries. Would definitely return to see more.

Devon break

A wonderful retreat after months of lockdown. Secluded, quiet and walks from the property. Weather was cool for summer and plenty of rain but that didn’t dampen the spirits. Owners were very helpful and made us very welcome. The property was as advertised. Property was clean with a focus on the superficial. Recommended for a refresh.
