Approached via a long drive, the period property is situated in an elevated position within a working sheep farm with over 180 acres of pasture. The former farmhouse sleeps up to 10 people in five bedrooms with two separate bathrooms & 1 en-suite and is the perfect base for a relaxing holiday with family & friends.

Summary: The property was perfect for our needs. Well presented and beautifully situated in a little slice of paradise. The hosts on site were wonderful. We had a superb holiday. There is so much to see and do in the area. The only challenge we had was how to balance going out and about, with staying put in the cool, calm, quiet of house and farm. Thank you.

Summary: We had a great few days here for our daughter’s wedding in Exeter. The rooms were spacious and provided plenty of room for bridesmaids and bride to get ready. The large kitchen table was great for 10 of us to sit at and lovely comfy lounges with log burners were cosy in the evening. Barbara was super helpful in explaining everything.

Summary: The house was perfect for our extended family. The bedrooms were well presented and the kitchen was good although using the range stove took some working out. Both reception rooms were very comfortable and all said it was a very enjoyable stay.

Summary: We had a lovely week staying at Down House with family. Barbara and Jeremy were such welcoming hosts and were only too happy to chat to us about their life on the farm. We even got to bottle feed some of the lambs, which was very special! Exeter was a 20 minute drive away which was perfect as we were there for my son’s graduation ceremony from the university there. It was the perfect house for our family holiday and I hope we go back there again sometime!

Summary: Down House Farm is a working sheep farm set in the beautiful Devon countryside. The gardens and views are lovely, there are wonderful walks in the fields, and if you are lucky you just might get a chance to feed a baby lamb! Barbara is a wonderful host and did everything she could to help us enjoy our stay. There is a golf course lol just a mile away and pubs and restaurants nearby, but we mostly just enjoyed the peaceful countryside.
