Fabulous location with wonderful views. Very warm and cozy. Beautifully decorated and comfortable beds and pillows. Home from home! Plenty of space for seven of us and a toddler celebrating my husband’s 60th birthday. We didn’t use the upper decking area because of the time of year but it was amazing! Also loved the front deck. Great for taking in the sea view! Beach access superb. Paul very amenable. Thank you

We had a very relaxing stay at Pippin Barn. Sufficiency out of the way but close enough to everything. It’s a great get away from it location with nice 3.5 mile circular walk from the door. Spotlessly clean well presented and well equipped. Thanks Devon Escapes

We have been there with 1 toddler and a baby for two days. We have enjoyed it a lot. The farm was next to our house. The house was very clean as shown in the photos. However we have struggled to find a halal spot to eat near there.

“Beautiful little place. Very short walk to Brixham harbour and a great location to explore South Devon. We had some lovely evening walks down to the harbour and we found the location ideal, even with my aunt and some mobility issues (walking stick). Paul was extremely responsive when we struggled to find the front door from the parked car. The place was immaculate, all bed linen smelt so fresh and the beds were so …

A lovely property in a perfect location, just a stone’s throw from local amenities. The views from the lounge and the roof top balcony truly were amazing and a real highlight of our holiday. Paul was extremely helpful whenever I needed to contact him.

Fantastic flat – absolutely stunning views, could have spent the entire stay staring out of that fabulous window. Great vibe to the whole property, really well thought out layout. Great location, so close to town and particularly Bayards Cove, everything is in walking distance. A fabulous find and a great stay was had by all! Would definitely recommend this stunning property, even in the depths of winter it would be…

We absolutely loved our stay at Ritson Farm and highly recommend it. The lay out of the house worked especially well for 2 families and 1 grandparent. I cannot fault the house – it was beautifully clean, spacious and well equipped. Each room was decorated beautifully and the whole house had a lovely feel to it. The garden was lovely to sit out in in the morning and for a BBQ and games on the evening. Communication w…
