The Experience

Rambling roses and flower-filled borders lead you to traditional external stone steps and the front door. Walk straight in to a light and spacious living area with gorgeous views, a wood-burner for chilly evenings, comfy chaise sofa and fresh flowers. The cook’s kitchen is at the other end: proper sharp knives, Nespresso machine – even pastry cutters for baking. A loaf of Pete’s homemade sourdough is waiting along with eggs from their hens and some fudge – you’re welcome to pick peas and beans from the garden in season.

Downstairs are two fresh and pretty bedrooms and a shower room with Bramley hand wash and lotion. Start the day outside the front door with a morning cuppa overlooking the fields, say hello to the cows. Evenings can be spent on the terrace at the back with teak table for al fresco suppers or a barbecue.

Open a bottle of wine and listen to birdsong – children will love the play area with swings and trampoline.

Reviews

Little Bank Barn is a peaceful oasis set amidst wildflower meadows and grazing cows, down a long private lane. Pretty stone steps lead from the garden to the front door. It has been beautifully converted and has everything needed for a perfect stay: white crisp linen, comfy beds, fluffy towels, a great power shower and a well-equipped kitchen. Children will love the swings and trampoline.

We have just had the most glorious few days at LBB…The barn is so cosy and homely, beautiful decorated, and has everything you need. The lovely thoughtful touches like fresh bread, milk, eggs and home made marmalade were delicious! And little vases of beautiful fresh flowers! The pretty little courtyard garden is a lovely space to relax. Harriet is so welcoming and cheerful, making you feel instantly at home and has some really good tips of where to go, things to do, places to eat… beautiful location. This was a real find and we will definitely be back!

We’ve just returned from a wonderful stay at Little Bank Barn. The barn is in an excellent location for exploring nearby beaches, towns and Dartmoor. Harriet was an excellent host, ensuring we had absolutely everything we needed for our baby. She even brought over some washing liquid so we could utilise the washing machine. LBB is decorated and furnished to a high standard and I’d imagine would be very cosy for a winter stay too. The welcome gift of fresh sourdough, marmalade, eggs and Rave coffee is also a really nice touch. We will be sure to visit again and highly recommend.

We had the most glorious few days at Little Bank Barn. It’s the most beautiful setting and Harriet has made the barn incredibly homely and cosy. Our boys loved staying in the bunk beds! We will definitely be booking again. Thank you

Location

The neighbourhood

The market town of Modbury (ten minutes by car) has a good butcher and interesting shops and cafés. The nearest beach is a 10-minute drive away; Kingsbridge is 20 minutes and has everything - including smart restaurants. More beaches at Bigbury, Burgh Island, Bantham, South Milton or Hope Cove are within a 20-minute drive for swimming, picnics, rock pooling and paddle boarding. Dartmoor is 15 to 20 minutes for bracing hiking, climbing and ponies.

Local points of interest from Harriet Franklin

  • Burgh Island (the setting for Agatha Christie's Poirot) is a short drive. Take the sea tractor over at high tide or stroll across the golden sand causeway at low tide. Stop for a pint at the atmospheric 14th century pub on the island and admire the views.
  • Walking on the stunning SW coast path, find hidden coves for a dip and admire the incredible views whatever the season.
  • Lovely Salcombe is a 20 minutes drive, a great spot to stroll, potter round the shops, grab an ice cream and watch the boats.
  • The Erme estuary and its beautiful undeveloped beaches, great for building sandcastles, reading a book in the sun, picnicking and exploring on foot at low tide.
  • Visit our favourite cosy 13th century pub, The Journeys End, for delicious food (Sunday lunch is amazing!) in a pretty village just of the SW coast path. Walk down to beautiful Aymer Cove to work up an appetite.
  • World famous Dartmoor National Park is about 15 minutes drive away - fantastic opportunities for walking, mountain biking and climbing.

Introducing

Harriet Franklin

Harriet, Pete and their family live in the cottage opposite. Harriet used to manage events, holiday cottages and glamping at a nearby country estate but always wanted to have her own place to let. They came across this cluster of buildings in 2018 and jumped at the chance to renovate. Harriet is warm, welcoming and smiley - there if you need her but will otherwise leave you to enjoy your holiday.
