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.

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.

Loved this barn. It is in a great location for town and all the beaches we wanted to go to. It was very clean and had everything you could want in terms facilities for cooking, cleaning, laundry etc. The garage to park and store things in was a luxury too.

Lovely property with all of the required facilities. The garage is a excellent extra due to the narrow streets. Lack of an outside space may put some people off but not an issue for us.

Ivy Barn was a lovely property to stay in and was extremely well equipped, clean and very comfortable. Having a garage was perfect as parking in the small, narrow streets around the barn is not easy! Braunton has several pubs, restaurants and a couple of small supermarkets so it's easy to eat out or in. The location is very handy for the lovely NorRead moreth Devon beaches. Hide
