About this property

This stylish barn conversion, set in the friendly owner’s private grounds, enjoys the rustic exterior of a traditional barn conversion with all the benefits of a contemporary, light and airy interior.  Great Palstone Barn enjoys all of the modern conveniences including underfloor heating throughout and there is a cosy woodburning stove in the beautiful open plan living space, perfect for warming up after a winter walk in many of the local beauty spots. The barn is ideal for family, friends or couples to enjoy yet retain their privacy with the 3 bedrooms all enjoying their own ensuites.

The heart of the village of South Brent, is just a 10-minute walk from the Swallow’s Rest and offers plenty of amenities including a pub, café bar, fish and chip shop, coop, deli and a wonderful craft shop. On the edge of the village is the Glazebrook House Hotel and its award-winning restaurant for a special evening out. There are beautiful short walks within the village along the River Avon and Glazebrook, including several nature reserves and footpaths connecting further to local moorland trails and beauty spots for keener walkers. The village has a regular half-hourly bus service connecting to Plymouth, Totnes Railway Station (with connections to Bristol and London) and Torquay.

Located on the southern edge of the stunning Dartmoor National Park which covers almost 370 square miles of granite tors, acres of open moor grazed by Dartmoor ponies and wooded valleys, there are plenty of activities to partake in including hiking, wild swimming, horse-riding, caving, cycling, kayaking and rock-climbing. The Dartmoor towns of Ashburton and Buckfastleigh are just a ten-minute drive away and offer shopping and other family-based attractions. For those not feeling quite so energetic, Dartmoor is still a fantastic place to simply get some fresh air, dip your toes in a stream or sit back and enjoy a Devon cream tea.

Only 12 miles from the stunning beach of Wonwell and within easy driving distance of Bigbury, Kingsbridge, Salcombe and Noss Mayo, day trips to the coast offer a great alternative for a fun day-out and access to a range of watersports and some of the finest sailing waters in the UK. Totnes (7 miles away), is famous as England’s alternative centre, it has plenty of independent shops, weekly market and good restaurants. The lively cities of Plymouth and Exeter, with their shops, museums, restaurants, theatres, cinemas and National Marine Aquarium are also just a 20 or 30-minute drive away respectively.
