Property code: OC-93333

This gorgeous single-floor retreat is located in the charming village of Yelverton, just a short half-mile stroll to nearby shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants. Nestled within the Dartmoor National Park, you’ll find easy access to some of Devon’s most awe-inspiring vistas, hiking trails, dog walks and cycling routes. Just a 5.5-mile drive away is the historic stannary market town of Tavistock offering its own unique charm and attractions including Buckland Abbey and the enchanting Garden House. Slightly further afield is Plymouth (9.5 miles) which offers a range of shops, restaurants, bars and many historical sites like the Hoe, the National Marine Museum and the Theatre Royal. Further south (17 miles) explore the tranquil sandy beach of Bovisands, and unwind along the sheltered bay located in the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

This unique holiday home is one of two suites in the property. Located on the ground floor, enter this beautiful single-level bolthole and kick off your shoes. To your right is a dining area and the room opens into a kitchen/lounge area. With a large sofa and armchair for unwinding, a TV and DVD player and a well-equipped kitchen, you can relax with ease after a long day exploring. Across the hall is the beautiful super-king-size bedroom with an en-suite shower room with a divine rainfall shower, with stunning beams and exposed walls throughout the property.

Outside, there is access to a secluded garden, unfortunately dogs are not permitted in the garden. The good news is that there are great places nearby where they can be walked: a lane directly opposite the property and another lane behind us that leads to a field.

Very cozy and comfortable property. Walking distance of the village centre with its pub and shops. A good base for exploring Dartmoor and South Hams.

What a lovely place to stay. Comfy bed, and a soft sofa. reliable central heating and plenty of hot water. The kitchen was equipped with every thing that we needed, even a vase for some flowers. I hoped that we left The Threshing Barn clean, maybe a long handled brush to sweep up after our dogs would of been helpful. We felt that we were well situaRead moreted to be able to explore parts of the moor that we haven't visited before. It was very pleasant. best wishes Andy and Mandy Hide

A lovely place for two to stay, we took our two dogs also. The Threshing Barn had everything we needed and more. A lovely bottle of wine was there for us on arrival, a lovely touch. A very comfy, super king bed, had a great night's sleep.

Small but perfectly formed. The Threshing Barn is a lovely property. Very comfortable bed, sitting room & a well-equipped kitchen area. The welcome from Linda (and Dylan the dog!) was very friendly and the whole space was inviting. It is compact but perfect for me & my dog Rory. The property has its own parking space & is extremely well-located, beRead moreing very close to the Yelverton roundabout which grants access to all major Dartmoor roads. I would not hesitate to book this property again. Hide

The accommodation is quite small but entirely adequate for a holiday for 2. It is very comfortable, rustic and the owners are on hand for any issues.

Linda & Aidan were great hosts. The barn conversion was well done with a well appointed kitchen including some of the cooking essentials like oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper etc. There were unexpected items like a slow cooker even though we took our own. A nice bottle of Chianti and some apples were waiting upon our arrival.

A lovely, cosy little escape with great amenities and very comfortable. Yelverton is perfectly located too, 20 minutes from Plymouth but close to everything in Dartmoor. The hosts are very hospitable and always around to help.
