Very nice
Very nice location and amenities. Surrounding area and beaches also excellent, our favourite being Westward Ho! The dairy next door for milkshakes was always our first point before heading off for a walk along the beach. The only slight thing I would have to say was some areas of the accommodation needed a little more of a thorough clean, especially when we we collecting toddler toys from under bed TV cabinets. Outstanding though in all other respects.

Fabulous Property and Overall Experience
Our stay was wonderful, so much so that we stayed an extra night! Everything was catered for, cream tea was fabulous, cleanliness of the property and facilities was excellent, communication with the owners was easy and very helpful. The pool and hot tub were an added bonus and the individual timings for the use of them made it feel safer. All in all, a high quality stay. We will be back.

Lovely rural setting with excellent amenities
We stayed here with our two girls and dog.
The barn was very well equipped and beds extremely comfortable. The pool and hot tub were a big hit with the kids and the grounds are beautiful and very peaceful.
It was a lovely holiday, Fiona was on hand if we needed anything and the location was great for getting about.
Thanks for having us!

Fantastic location & facilities. Sheldon Barn was absolutely perfect for our short break with our 2 spaniels. Anne-Louise & Paul the owners, made us feel very welcome and we have now booked to re visit in September. Highly recommend.

Lovely relaxing break
We had a really friendly welcome from Ann-Louise who supplied a delicious home made cream tea and a bottle of proper fresh milk from the dairy next door! Everything was there that we needed for a lovely holiday and the place was spotlessly clean and comfortable. The added bonus was the indoor swimming pool and hot tub...fantastic! We loved the fact that it’s very dog friendly too....would not hesitate in recommending this property.

We spent 2 days exploring Devon and 3 comfortable nights at High Park. Swimming pool a great bonus and well used by us. The hamper of goodies was a lovely surprise.
