Idyllic, spacious, high spec barn conversion
We had a wonderful stay at this property. The parking is right by the door; the space inside is open, bright and spacious. The interiors are high spec. The layout is great. The beds were comfortable. All rooms are en-suite plus there is a downstairs loo. It was superbly equipped. Our kids loved the warm pool (which is deep, we took swimming aids) and enjoyed the games room. The grounds are lovely. Everything is close at hand (swings/pool/tennis court/games room). Highly recommend.

We had the best time at this property. Tom was brilliant, with lots of info to help us enjoy our stay. The house was gorgeous, so much space for us all to enjoy, with the added benefit of the games room being downstairs. We used all the facilities apart from the pool, as we had some great weather!

A Pleasant Return
With three sections in our family we needed a three bedroomed, dog friendly location and wanted a pool too. Having enjoyed it in March we returned for a second time. It’s a lovely place to stay with on site activities as well as plenty of potential visits in the vicinity.

We found the property to be a very well equipped with enough room for nine to sit together around the dining table. We visited a different beach every day all of which were beautiful. We all enjoyed the pool and the location is perfect for children very little passing traffic.

Amazing family holiday
The Grain store was a beautiful home inside and out, it lived up to its expectations most definitely. With the age range of our 5 children it couldn’t suit any better with the tennis courts, games room and swimming pool this made our holiday. It was surrounded by stunning views in the country with a short drive to the local town of kingsbridge which was great for crabbing and has a fantastic ice cream shop called scoops. Highly recommend this property and would definitely come back. X

Great Christmas holiday
The property is very nice, it can accommodate 10 people but you will struggle to eat together as the table is for 6. The play room was fantastic if you have kids and the acces from the downstairs room is very handy. The pool was not as we expected as the water was a bit cold for small kids, the sauna is closed due to covid. But overall a very nice experience in a remote location and very relaxing. Thanx

Ticked all the boxes
We had a wonderful autumn stay at The Grain store as two families of four. The space worked excellently. The house itself was stunning with plenty of room for us all and all the equipment you could need for a really home from home stay. Sleeping arrangements could be flexible if needed which was a real bonus for us. The location was fab with the children having a real sense of freedom, being able to play on the tennis courts and outside play area safely. The added bonus of the house was that it had its own 'secret' access to the games room which the children loved. Only a short drive from Kingsbridge, Salcombe, South Milton, Slapton Sands etc the location of the property was perfect for us to explore the area and take plenty of beach walks. The on-site caretaker was really welcoming and the owners were super quick to answer any queries we had. The handbook provided was also very informative about the property and area, helping us choose beaches to visits and walks to take. We would all recommend staying at The Grain store and would definitely return. A wonderful break.

Perfect, will definitely be back
This was the most beautiful place to stay! The views were amazing, facilities were brilliant and perfect for our children ( 7 & 9) who were able to have some independence as everything was laid out so well, they really enjoyed the golf! Shame the pool wasn’t open but that’s understandable. The location is perfect for exploring the beautiful coast and towns. We have told so many friends about this little gem and will definitely be returning!

Lovely Devon Holiday
We had a lovely week at this beautiful converted barn. The accommodation was excellent ... well equipped & nicely furnished. The bottle of fizz waiting for us on arrival was a lovely touch! The Stancombe Manor estate is stunning and the surrounding areas, towns & beaches are wonderfully picturesque. We had a fabulous week & enjoyed nearby Kingsbridge, Salcombe, Brixham & Dartmouth, to name but a few!
