Overview

Part of a small number of converted barns, around a central courtyard, Stables Barn benefits from a peaceful and private location with off-road parking. East Budleigh village has a friendly local pub, Sir Walter Raleigh, serving great food and a village shop. It is ideally placed for access to some fantastic local walks. The lovely seaside town of Budleigh Salterton is just a short drive away with it's delightful pebble beach and selection of shops, restaurants and cafes. 

This stylish cottage has been sympathetically renovated with real attention to detail throughout. A spacious hallway leads to the large sitting room with wooden floors and neutral decor- the room is flooded with light from the two large sash windows to the front of the property. This elegant room has two comfortable sofas, a large coffee table and a fantastic wood-burning stove.

The kitchen is in a traditional style and is well equipped. A wooden table can seat up to 6 people. The back door leads to the pretty enclosed private courtyard garden with patio furniture. 

There is also a downstairs cloakroom with sink and W.C.

Upstairs the property benefits from high vaulted ceilings and exposed wooden beams, giving a lovely feeling of space.

Lovely location & well equipped cottage. Welcome pack tasteful & appreciated after a long journey. However, having stayed at the property over a number of years, I think it is perhaps time for new duvets, which are now a bit sparse & lumpy. The double bed in the second bedroom has a mattress topper but can't disguise the mattress is very soft now. Also, the sofa seating cushions desperately need replacement infills. The sofas have been in situ for some time now, under previous owners, and the cushions are now really flat & you can feel the frame through them, which is uncomfortable. Also, the trims around the shower door in the en suite need looking at. They are either aged or grubby but either way, are off putting I hope these points are taking as helpful feedback & not criticism. We still had a lovely stay.

Response

Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback, we are pleased you had an enjoyable stay at Stables Barn. The owners have taken all of these points on board, they have purchased new duvets and have plans to re-stuff the sofas. The second bedroom mattress is relatively new, we appreciate it is difficult to find a mattress to suit all tastes and apologise it is not to your preference. Many thanks again for your helpful feedback, we hope to welcome you back soon. Kind Regards The Sweetcombe Team
