Absolutely fabulous location, garage a must have and everything we could have needed was there. Village is great and a brilliant base for exploring north Devon but dont recommend the George Inn for a family meal on a Friday night, live band made it impossible to eat (didnt know at time of booking table)!

The property is a lovely barn conversion to stay in. The property was clean, tidy and well equipped. The location was great for the town - easy walking distance, plenty of nice places to eat in the town. The only down side to the property is if you have more than one car, parking can be a slight issue for the second car.

The accommodation is comfortable and an ideal base to see many beautiful beaches and also to visit Barnstaple for a shopping day. In Braunton, there is everything you need if not wanting to move the car. A bus for convenience too. The barn felt very welcoming and was nice and warm after being out and about in not particularly good weather. Having tRead morehe garage was very useful otherwise it may have been difficult for to park. Hide

We spent a lovely and comfortable Christmas here. It's on a very characterful, olde English street with two pubs and a church within 300m. Only 5 mins wolk to the Braunton shops, yet it was quiet and quaint. The downstairs was bigger than appeared in the photos, and the upstairs about the same - spacious entertaining space with a very well-equippedRead more kitchen, a big table and several sofas. Check-in and communication from the host was seamless and I would not hesitate to stay here again. Hide

The accommodation was lovely, clean & well equipped. It is just a walk away from local shops, takeaways & pubs. Most of them are dog friendly. Just a 10 minute drive to the nearest beach which was really clean & dog friendly too. Had a great time & would definitely recommend.
