Guests that stayed at this property said
There is no specific mention of cleanliness in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide a score for this category.
The location is praised for its spectacular setting and peacefulness, though it is noted to be a bit off the beaten track and challenging to find, with access through narrow lanes.
Guests find The Barn very comfortable and delightfully furnished, with a cosy atmosphere that is easy to relax in.
The Barn is well-equipped, but some guests mentioned a lack of mirrors, a second chair in the second bedroom/bathroom, a shortage of glass tumblers, and the absence of a crown bottle opener.
The provision of luxurious welcome gifts was highly appreciated, indicating thoughtfulness. However, it should be noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and may not be provided on every occasion.
About this property
Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, The Barn is in an ideal location sitting on the border of Dorset and Devon and close to Somerset also. This superbly constructed barn style property provides spacious and well-appointed accommodation for four guests.
The Barn is located in the quaint village of Holditch, a hamlet within Thorncombe, just a 16 minute drive away from the bustling market town of Axminster, or 20 minutes away from charming Beaminster.
With an open-plan kitchen and dining room and adjoining sitting room with wood burning stove, The Barn is perfect for a family holiday or a break with friends. The generous accommodation includes a spacious king-size master suite with a sitting area and television, dressing area, and an en-suite bathroom with a roll-top bath. The second bedroom has twin single beds and its own en-suite shower room. A large utility room and separate boot room completes the attractive accommodation.
Outside, the property has a pretty sheltered courtyard garden with garden furniture, and in front of the property is a large lawned garden with fruit trees affording wonderful views across the glorious countryside.
The popular seaside towns of Lyme Regis, Charmouth and Seaton are just a pleasant drive away, and Axminster with its shops and cafes is under five miles.

The Barn was very comfortably furnished, well equipped and easy to live in. The location was peacefully remote with lovely countryside views. It was about 15 minute to either Chard or Axminster but through narrow country lanes often needing reversing to a passing place. Minor quibbles were a lack of mirrors and a second chair in the second bedroom/ bathroom, only 4 glass tumblers and no crown bottle opener in the kitchen. Otherwise, we loved it!
