Beautiful exterior and views. However, as per the negative comments below, the interior decor, facilities and standard of cleanliness was very poor and not reflective of the 4* star label or the price commanded per night. We found animal hair on the baby high chair. In our room light bulbs were blown, the curtain track was hanging down and the... More

We stayed five nights, choosing the hotel for its location near the friends we were visiting, and its dog-friendliness. We liked the quiet location, dogs being welcome, the spacious room (it was no. 6), the sea view, and the beach being close. We were able to relax during our stay. We were less keen on the unheated bathroom and the... More

In a beautiful setting the Barn Hotel is a warm ,clean beautiful place to stay.T room we had was a superior room,very well decorated very spacious and everything you need is in the room. Breakfast is pentiful,cooked breakfast served very hot. A few minutes walk from the sandy beach. .

A very different hotel. The Barn hotel has enviable location - just out of town but just yards from the Devon pinkish sandy beach. Even in the run up to Christmas it is blissfully quiet at night, although everything you could wish for is not so far away- but the hotel is without the noise and hassle. Built as a... More

A relatively late booking but well worth it. Enjoyed our stay in a lovely large double room with a view over the garden, swimming pool and Exmouth Bay. Our siamese cats found plenty to watch from the big picture window. Full english breakfast kept us going all day. We will definitely return to this lovely hotel.

Stayed in this Hotel during October half term break, just the wife and I. We plumped for a bigger room, which turned out to be massive, and well equiped, with views overlooking the sea and lovely gardens. The Hotel has lots of character, being quite old, and very imposing. Some lovely olde worlde charm. Staff were lovely - very welcoming.... More

I really struggle to fault the barn. Having stayed here a number of times I have never been disappointed. Rooms are very comfortable, breakfasts are lovely and staff are very friendly & happy to help. The location is perfect as he beach is a very short walk away. My children loved that!! Views are probably the best I have found... More

On seeing lovely house and fantastic sea view, we had high hopes of The Barn which, sadly, were soon dashed. We paid extra for a 'superior' room - it smelt musty, had stains on the carpet, a mish-mash of furniture, terrible old bathroom, no soap, thin towels, slime in the overflow. 'Sea view' could only be seen when standing up... More

On arrival, shown to our rather small double room overlooking the car park. First thing noticed, was a used tissue on the floor. A rather 'tired' room, dust around the bed legs on the carpet and on the glass bedside units. Although sounds petty, no bar of soap in the bathroom and no non-slip mat in the bath where the... More
