Reviews
Really modern and clean
Kirsty
The Hen House was really modern and clean. Very well equipped and comfortable. Lovely place to stay for a weekend away.
We had a great time
Jude
We had a great time here despite the weather not being the best. The house had everything we needed, although a bbq would be nice, particularly if it had been warmer. We enjoyed seeing the animals and being so remote the stars on a clear night were amazing and we were treated to a wonderful rainbow against the beautiful Devon hills one evening. Once you get used to the narrow roads everywhere is accessible and we managed to visit most of the main nearby towns. The walk to Start Point lighthouse is stunning, although it wasnt open to see inside but spotting dolphins down below well made up for it!
Coming back next year!
Alan
Perfect location, perfect accommodation and very responsive hosts. We had a lovely but brief time here but enjoyed so much that we are already planning our return next year, but will definitely stay for longer next time. Thank you so much
Really Lovely place to stay

Stunning location.
Amie
Stunning location. The view is beautiful and so, so peaceful. Friendly cats, ducks, pigs, cows and sheep made this place extra special. Accommodation is clean, modern, comfortable and well equipped. Enjoyed complimentary Prosecco and coffee - thank you! So close to Slapton sands and Blackpool sands which are both beautiful. Approx 30mins to Salcombe which was holding their annual regatta during our visit so had lots of little craft stalls. We enjoyed a scrummy pizza overlooking the water there and highly recommend Primo Pizza as much quieter than surrounding restaurants as a little hidden. We also enjoyed a day at Bigbury on sea and Burgh island which was amazing!!!! Super shallow water for ages, rock pools to explore, Burgh island walk which serves up the most gorgeous views. We took the children to Woodlands theme park on the day of our arrival as check-in is 4pm and there was so much to do! Lots of animals, rides and more.
We had an amazing stay
Brian
We had an amazing stay at the Hen House, everything that we needed - we especially loved the outside seating and the beautiful views. Would love to come back one day.

Emily
We had a great stay and would definitely go back! It's a lovely, modern house with gorgeous views and is on a farm (so great for kids to see the tractors / cows / pigs in the mornings!). A friendly cat visited us all the time too. It's so close to the beach at Torcross (and the Start Bay Inn for great fish and chips) and well located for Salcombe / Dartmouth etc. The two bathrooms were really useful. The only things to note are that the third bedroom is an alcove room (i.e. no door). It's such a beautiful part of the world!
Fantastic place!
Catherine
We had such a fantastic stay here - probably our favourite Devon spot to date - the kids loved staying at The Hen House, being right on the farm and being greeted by the sheep and getting to see the calves. The space was perfect for us with 3 kids, very comfortable, spacious and spotlessly clean. Everything had been thought of and we were in an ideal location, close to so many beautiful beaches and attractions - we loved having breakfast at Stokely farm shop 12 min drive away, always the best fish & chips from the Start Bay Inn and our trip to Pennywell farm was brilliant. We would definitely love to stay here again!
Loved It!
Louise
"We loved the Hen House and it was spotless. It was perfect for our family of 4 and would easily and comfortably host 3 kids with parents. We had amazing weather and spent several days at Bantham Beach, a day at Start Point and a day at Woodlands theme park. The farm was great fun for the kids - they saw newborn calves, collected duck eggs and climbed hay bales with Albert. Thank you - we had the most fantastic stay and hope to return next summer!"
Will Return
Steve
"The perfect stay at the Hen House. We love South Devon and will definitely be returning to stay at this wonderful accommodation in the best part of the country!"
Wonderful Week
Lucy
"What a wonderful week we've had! The Hen House is spotlessly clean, perfectly equipped and brilliantly placed to explore beautiful South West Devon. Thank you for being such great hosts. The children have enjoyed farm life (especially seeing the baby calves, ducks, chickens, goats, cats and puppies!)
We hope to be back soon!"
Beautiful!
Candice
"Fantastic accommodation, clean and well equipped. Lovely views and the kids loved exploring the farm and seeing the animals. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay".
Coming Back!
Sean
"We had a lovely break at the cabin. Spotlessly clean on arrival and milk left in the fridge. Great base from which to explore the area and visit Salcombe and Dartmouth. Will definitely return".
