“Beautiful barn conversion in peaceful location”

Great barn conversion in a courtyard setting, very cleverly designed and beautifully furnished. Very spacious and well equipped. Peaceful setting, only sounds from the birds and the sheep! Ideal central position for visiting Salcombe, Dartmouth etc. ...

Great barn conversion in a courtyard setting, very cleverly designed and beautifully furnished. Very spacious and well equipped. Peaceful setting, only sounds from the birds and the sheep! Ideal central position for visiting Salcombe, Dartmouth etc. My only slight reservation would be the very narrow lanes you have to drive down to get to this property. The lanes are pretty quiet, we didn't meet too much traffic but did get into a sticky situation with a taxi minibus. But that's the price you have to pay for such a tranquil and rural setting.

“Beautiful place to stay, very quiet and peaceful.”

The Granary is lovely, and very well equipped. Good for exploring Salcombe and Dartmouth. The property is down some very narrow lanes which makes driving interesting.The lanes are pretty quiet so we didn't meet much traffic but we did have a sticky moment with a taxi minibus!
“Accommodation was first class.”

However the complex was far bigger than I thought it would be.
“Lovely accommodation and perfect for my family's needs.”

Only comment would be that the directions were not quite accurate i.e. it is not necessary to go through the pillars to reach the accommodation - it is located before the pillars.
“The Granary was very well equipped and in a great location to explore beautiful South Devon.”
“Wonderful accomodation - real home from home - all immaculate and clean and very well equipped”
“Very clean and spacious for the six of us plus a dog.”

Good value for money.
“Very good clean and comfortable with lots of nice touches”
“We very much enjoyed staying at the Granary.”

It is in a beautiful setting. Very well equipped, everything necessary for a great home from home style stay. Lovely decor. Very comfortable sofa. Nice and quiet which is what we want from our holiday accommodation. The garden was perfect for our two little dogs. However on the negative side, I think it's time for a freshen up with some new paint, especially the skirting boards and doors as these are looking grubby and maybe a good clean as there was a number of cobwebs around. The wooden furniture outside is very weather beaten and wasn't clean enough to sit on. The ensuites have no natural light which can make shaving difficult so a shaving light would be beneficial. We found the mattress in the main bedroom upstairs very uncomfortable but that is personal to us, everyone is different about that. If these things were changed we would definitely stay at The Granary again.

“A lovely cottage, clean, very roomy and well equipped.”

Parking was a bit difficult in our case as our garage locked itself on closure, with no key, and we had to force it open which took some doing. We therefore had to take up 2 spaces in the small visitors car park. There was a problem with ants but ant powder was provided. However, we realize that this is a problem which is hard to overcome.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review of The Granary at Goveton. Your feedback in respect of the garage has been passed on to the owner and we have also requested that our property checker inspects it on the next changeover. We apologise for any inconvenience caused during your stay. On a brighter note, we were pleased to hear that you found the property to be clean, spacious and well equipped - we do hope you will choose to stay again.
Thank you so much. See you again soon! Owner relations
