Underhill Barn

We recently stayed with two friends in the Terrace and Courtyard Suites at Underhill Barn B and B. We had the most wonderful time. The accommodation is superb, with the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in! The property and its location are beautiful and the breakfast outstanding. Many thanks to our fantastic hosts, Ants and Lance. We were sorry to leave!

Where do I start?! Probably one of the best B&B stays I've ever had and almost certainly one of the best breakfasts I've had (Ants' scrambled egg is next level!). Ants and Lance provided a cosy and comfortable stay at Underhill Barn; my large room was immaculate and the huge bed was super comfortable. There was cake on arrival and the most delicious home-cooked breakfast both mornings of my stay. The accommodation is perfectly situated for exploring beautiful East Devon. A truly memorable stay!

Underhill is the most beautiful bed and breakfast in a stunning setting. Our hosts Ant and Lance were so attentive and charming. Nothing was too much trouble. Ant thought of everything to make our stay so perfect. I had my elderly Mum with me who was celebrating a birthday. She has major mobility issues. Ant gave advice on where to eat in the evening and where to go in the day that would be suitable which was invaluable. His breakfast was amazing - beautifully presented and cooked to order. The courtyard garden is a sun trap. It felt like a home from home, and I cant recommend it enough.

Ants and Lance were very welcoming - they obviously take great pride in making sure that everything is as perfect as they can make it for your stay. The barn has been beautifully converted and is spotlessly clean. Our room was very spacious with everything we needed and an extra private seating area just outside. The bed was extremely comfortable with luxurious bedding and we both slept exceptionally well. The breakfast was fabulous, setting us up for the day and we took our danish pastries out with us each day to have for elevenses. Ants and Lance's local knowledge was very helpful too.

A lovely place to stay in Devon. Ants and Lance couldn't have been more hospitable and I would recommend very highly.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week in the Terrace Suite, where nothing was too much trouble for our wonderful, welcoming hosts. So much thought and detail had gone into everything from Ants' wonderful breakfast spread, home-made cakes in the afternoon and slice for the journey home, to the dreamy Hypnos beds, relaxing décor and spotless bedroom and lounge areas. The weather was beyond everyone's control, but Ants and Lance were only too happy to give us plenty of ideas, directions, maps and recommendations to cover all eventualities. Thank you Ants, Lance (and Tilly the cat)!

Just FANTASTIC! Ants and Lance met us with warm smiles and a homemade cake as we arrived. Their warmth and friendliness never stopped! Even the slice of cake continued daily. Our beautiful room was cleaned and tidied daily, and the breakfast was AMAZING, I asked Ants for so many recipes! So much care was taken over my coeliac statues too. They know the area intimately and took great interest in making sure we had the best time, advising us of the best restaurants and places to visit. It’s as if they want to really treat their guests, they are naturals at this! They have created a calm haven.

Wow, what a wonderful bed and breakfast Underhill Barn is. It has everything you want and more with all those extra touches. Ants and Lance are SO accommodating and nothing is too much trouble. We felt so welcome and leaving was quite hard as it is such a relaxing and calm place to stay. I feel sure we will stay there again. Thank you.

What an amazing property with some of the nicest hosts I ever met….nothing was too much trouble, the additional touches were over and above any accommodation I have stayed in….. and special call out to Ant, who made the stay even more special…. A very special place to stay….

Just experienced a most enjoyable stay at Underhill Farm. Ant and Lance are amazing hosts whose friendliness and hospitality are matched by their impeccable facility. Highly recommended for a peaceful and luxurious stay. Thank you both

Fantastic stay at Underhill Barn! Great hosts were so welcoming and attentive....we felt really spoilt. Fab, luxurious room with outside space to sit with a book or G&T. Superb breakfast.... enough to last all day. Can't wait to return...thanks!

Ants and Lance truly are the hosts with the most! The most attentive and responsive hosts we have ever had - they made our stay at Underhill Barn such a pleasure. From the welcome tea and delicious cake in the lovely lounge to Ants' delicious breakfasts each morning, everything was a delight. We stayed in the Courtyard Suite which was very roomy and comfortable. Again, nothing was too much trouble and attention was paid to small details like fresh milk daily and a nice tin of treats at the bedside. Ants's recommendations for meals and days out were very good and we really enjoyed our stay.

From the moment we arrived we were greeted at the wonderful entrance to Underhill Barn by Anthony who duly took our bags to our room with beautiful decor and wonderful comfortable beds with goose down duvet and pillows. Breakfast was leisurely and the choice extensive all prepared by Anthony to set you up for the day and when you return lovely afternoon tea with freshly baked apple and cinnamon cake. Best B&B we have stayed in.

We had the best time at Underhill Barn. Ant and Lance are amazing hosts – nothing is too much trouble and they had thought of absolutely everything to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable. Ant’s breakfasts are a delight of vision and taste, providing anything you could wish for. The room was a dream, light and airy with a super comfy huge bed and immaculate bedding. There is also extra space to chill out in. They are very knowledgeable of the area and gave us lots of ideas for restaurants and places to visit. We would not hesitate to recommend a stay here. And Ants marmalade is exceptional!

Everything about our stay here was exceptional. A beautifully decorated and superbly comfortable room with it’s own lounge space too, a peaceful and quiet countryside setting, easy parking and we couldn’t have been more warmly welcomed by our attentive and lovely hosts. The breakfasts were fabulous with everything freshly prepared and cooked to order for us using fresh local ingredients. This is a truly comfortable home from home & we both really loved it and would highly recommend staying here. Take a few days if you truly want to unwind & feel extremely well looked after.

From the moment you step into this beautiful barn, you will be wowed by the spacious and luxuriously appointed rooms. The setting is very peaceful with many walks from the doorstep. Anthony and Lance are such welcoming hosts, nothing is too much trouble. The breakfasts are out of this world so prepared to be spoilt. I could stay here forever and be pampered.
