Gittishayne Farm Barn Reviews

Lynne
We had a wonderful stay at this lovely barn conversion. The host was incredibly responsive and welcoming, and the accommodation had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing break. The surrounding area is peaceful and full of countryside charm, yet we were only 10 to 20 minutes away from many lovely places to visit. It was the perfect balance of tranquillity and convenience. Weâ??ll definitely be back again, highly recommended!
Ivan
Perfect location for a comfortable and relaxing break. High quality accommodation and hosts who go the extra mile to make us feel welcome. Highly recommended.
Christine
We found Gittishayne a superb place to stay. The Barn was equipped with everything you would need for your stay and more, the whole place was very comfortable and superbly clean. We loved staying on the farm and were welcomed warmly by Margaret and Brian plus Molly the dog who my grandson fell in love with. On arrival Margaret had left us scones, jam and cream plus other goodies in the kitchen which we enjoyed immensely. I would recommend Gittishayne Barn wholeheartedly���most enjoyable.
Elaine
We had a lovely stay at Gittishayne Farm Barn, the rooms were very comfortable. Although rural it wasnâ??t far by car to lots of lovely places in Devon. The owners provide everything you could possibly need for a great holiday cottage rental. We will definitely recommend and wouldnâ??t hesitate to return ourselves in the future.
Jamie
Lovely cottage and great location. Margaret was very kind and helpful. Looking forward to our next visit.
Matthew
We had a wonderful stay at the cottage and enjoyed the peace and tranquillity. Margaret is a magnificent host, greeting us upon our arrival. We were delighted to find two bottles of wine, scones, cream and jam, tea, coffee and milk all waiting for us. Nothing was too much trouble and the cottage is perfect for families who wish to get away. Heartily recommended!
Amanda
The owners were very friendly and welcoming, every trying was thought of and well presented. The property was also super clean and in good condition. The cottage was perfect for our stay. Good sized and well equipped kitchen, lovely dining room and a lounge with wood burner. With the four generously sized double bedrooms (two en-suites and one family bathroom), it was perfect for our group. We loved the quiet location with access to a public footpath right from the farm itself. The coast is a short drive away. Can easily walk to local pubs too. Perfect for a long weekend or week long escape.
Sandra
Stayed here for a long weekend with 4 generations of family including 1 with reduced mobility , the downstairs bedroom and ensuite was perfect for him. All the bedrooms are very large with plenty of storage and lovely comfortable beds. We was a large group and it never felt crowded. The kitchen has every utensil you could need and there was plenty of plates, glasses etc. The property is rural but not far from the lovely village of Colyton with a well stocked shop. The welcome cream tea and wine went down a treat thank you Margaret and Brian for going above and beyond to make sure that we had everything we needed for a perfect weekend.
