Farmstay holiday rentals in South Hams District

We had a fantastic few days in Cornwall visiting friends. Pat and Tony’s place is lovely and in a very quiet spot. The owners were very flexible with check-in and check-out rules. There was even some homemade jam and bread for our breakfast. Tony was very welcoming. We would return any time. The place is tucked away and not very easy to find, but the instructions were clear. Using the “What3Words” app would have made it even easier. I did add the place to my favourites in the app in order to find my way back in the dark.

We wanted to get away from it all in a part of Dartmoor we hadn't been to before and Steve's place seemed to fit the bill. When we got there, we found that it more than met our expectations! The Barn was exactly what we were looking for: a wonderful peaceful location and extremely comfortable and very well-equipped accommodation. The big selling point for us was the fact that the Barn was on lots of well-mapped walks, so that we could go on lovely walks in all directions without having to get in the car. Steve and Tessa were the perfect hosts; they made us feel most welcome and we found we had a lot in common. We very much enjoyed our short stay and look forward to returning to the Barn before long to explore the area further.

A perfect setting to clear my brain of all the clutter that builds up over time. Peace & quiet to read & read & then read some more. Will be booking to go back again later in the year. Kim is the best host.

What can I say, 🤷‍♀️ the house was beautiful. Ticked all our boxes, and our host was amazing. Attentive and extremely helpful, thankyou Mark,I am sure we will be back 👏👏

We had a wonderful stay at Higher Blannicombe! The cottage is beautifully kitted out and has everything you could need for your stay. The cookies on arrival were a lovely touch and we really enjoyed the other free snacks! The views from the cottage are amazing and we loved waking up to the rolling countryside. Phil was a fab host and made check in and check out super easy. By far the best Airbnb we've ever stayed at!

We stayed for a long weekend, and had friends join us for the first night. Bedrooms were spacious and very comfortable. The house is in a lovely spot, and really quiet. Instructions accurate and detailed. The kitchen was well appointed and two fridges a really useful touch. If you plan to use the BBQ you will need to bring charcoal - the local Asda had very limited option, so we recommend planning ahead! We made the most of being on the south west coast path on our second day, walking all the way to Salcombe…. The trek back up the hill was a little more intense than we hoped, but a great location. We would have happily stayed a few more days!

Fox Cottage is a perfect place to stay if you need a base to explore the Teign estuary and beyond. It’s incredibly peaceful, and Ann has done an amazing job of creating a really livable, cosy space.

We so highly recommend Jeanette and Honeysuckle Cottage for a stay in the beautiful Devon countryside and can't wait to return. Really appreciated the cosy warm log burner already prepped to light and the comfy sofa, We were lucky enough to have a cream tea on arrival followed by a lovely walk up to Brentor Church for a panoramic view. We bought steak from Howells Butchers in Tavistock and cooked at the cottage in the compact but well equipped kitchen. Bunny rabbits on the lawn if you're up early enough.

We had the most wonderful time at this beautiful cabin. It was meticulously clean, beautifully designed, and every little detail had been thoughtfully taken care of by the hosts. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely relaxed and at home. The location was peaceful and picturesque - the perfect escape. You can really tell how much care and love has gone into creating this space. We wouldn’t hesitate to come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a serene getaway.

We had a wonderful time staying at Ruby Rose. The surroundings are idyllic. Our 5 year old daughter loved checking on the chickens , collecting their eggs and ensuring they had their water topped up. The outdoor games provided were a great touch - we had quality family time. Denise was welcoming and helpful. Thank you for having us

We had a beautiful week at The Cart Barn, beautiful location with beautiful views and a private garden which was perfect for our pooch! we spent most of our evenings watching the beautiful cows out the garden! the hot tub was a lovely addition and the barn had everything we needed to make ourselves and our dog feel at home! Some great recommendations in the welcome book and from the owners of local things to do! Will definitely be returning in the future! :)

We had amazing stay at Axe Valley View for a long birthday weekend in June. The cabin had everything we needed for our stay with beautiful valley views. We especially loved how wildlife and eco-friendly it was, both inside and out. A short drive to Lyme Regis where we attended the Fossil Festival 2025 and great local hiking routes, including Golden Cap in Bridport. Alison was a lovely and welcoming host and we would highly recommend a visit.

Beautiful setting and a beautifully built log cabin. Peaceful and tranquil. Well worth the money and we will return in the future. Visitors need to visit the anchor inn in seatown for lovely food and drinks

Lovely bolthole - beautiful barn with a wonderful view over nice garden and fields. Well equipped for two people and comfy with nice living space and TV. Kitchen had everything we needed (and we did lots of cooking) and good oven/hob/BBQ. The best thing for us was the tennis court - it's an artificial turf court in excellent condition - played very nicely and we used it every day! Thanks for a wonderful stay!

I had a fantastic experience staying at this Airbnb! The host was incredibly friendly, responsive, and made sure everything was perfect from the moment I arrived. The property was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated, with thoughtful touches that made it feel like home. The location was excellent very quiet and peaceful at night. The bed was super comfortable, and all the amenities were in great condition. I would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, cozy place to stay. Thank you for a wonderful visit!

Our stay at Clover Carriage was peaceful, fun and the view we had of the countryside was outstanding. Clara was responsive and gave clear instructions (with photos) on how to find the farm and the carriage. She also gave some great recommendations of the local area. The pool and sauna are fantastic, and the privacy we received in our personal garden was incredible. The accommodation itself is super clean has everything you need. We absolutely loved our stay and will certainly be back again in the future.

Having grown up in the area, Kennel Farm is the place we choose to come back for our family holiday every year. We love the house and surroundings. Excellent location and Tanya is a perfect host. Highly recommend.

great place to stay, very quiet and beautiful area. Cottage is clean and inviting. Adorable dog too!

A blissful retreat, with absolutely stunning views. The Bothy is cozy and well kitted out, and the hosts are incredibly thoughtful.

Ben's cottage was stunning — we loved every moment of our stay. If it were possible to give 6 out of 5 stars, I would have. The surrounding area was breathtaking, we enjoyed wandering through the fields and visited the vineyard, where we sampled some fantastic wine. There were also some excellent local pubs close by, all serving delicious food. Everything felt convenient, peaceful, and just perfect — there wasn’t a single thing we could fault. We’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable getaway.

A great place to stay for exploring the local area, with everything you need

My favourite airbnb I have ever stayed at! The cottage is so beautiful and Oliver and Louise were so responsive and helpful with great tips for the area! The space was clean and tidy and had all the amenities you could need! Woody the lab is very sweet, we will miss him! Whenever I return to Cornwall I will book again without a shadow of a doubt!

such a lovely air bnb in a beautiful part of the country. Wish we had longer there to explore. Our hosts were the absolute best. Really helpful and friendly. Recommended some really great places. Lucia was always really quick to reply. Side note, we went to their ice cream shop in salcombe and its hands down the best ice cream we've ever tasted.

We really enjoyed our stay at this beautifully presented property in fantastic surroundings. The house was extremely well presented with great facilities and a beautiful garden to relax in. We enjoyed exploring the beautiful coastline and had a delicious meal at the local Rise and crown. We would love to stay again.
