The Experience

Gaze at the stars from the hot tub with a bottle of bubbly at this big sociable barn, ex-recording studio for Led Zeppelin. Surrounded by farmhouses, cottages and ponies, with views to Batson Creek and beyond, all you hear are the call of the birds and the squeals of very happy children. 

It’s well set up for children with books, games, highchairs, dogs, ponies and hens so bring everyone and take the Stables below – together they sleep 18 and there’s room for all in the huge dining kitchen at a great big table. Windows have views, sunrises are worth getting up early for. 

It’s a 15-minute walk down the lane for excellent seafood at the Crab Shed, and drinks at the stylish Gin Bar; ten more to the boutiques and boats of Salcombe. If you return in the dark – bring torches!

Reviews

We hired the Recording Studio alongside the Barn for a hen weekend in July which worked really well as we had a big group. The farm is so picturesque, the setting is stunning. Our hosts were very welcoming and friendly - they live on site but it is very private and we were left to our own devises. The property is beautifully decorated and very well cared for. the beds were clean and comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we might need. The location is ideal - a short walk into gorgeous Salcombe. I would have no hesitation in recommending for any groups.

We had a great time , staying at The Recording Studio. The accomodation was very clean and beautifully presented. The location was relaxing and peaceful in the countryside, only a few minutes drive away from Salcombe. Highly recommend a stay here.

Halina, Worcestershire

What a fab place to stay! Perfect for a family get-together, beautifully done up and so close to Salcombe but out of the hustle and bustle too so you can really relax! Freya and her family are so lovely and helpful and we couldn't recommend it enough - we'll be back!

Location

The neighbourhood

The AONB setting is semi-remote, with valley views. Salcombe, the third largest inland harbour in the world, is a 25-minute walk down pretty lanes, while the Crab Shed restaurant is even closer. Boats, bars and boutiques abound, as do water sports, sandy beaches and tiny coves: seek out Gara Rock.
