Stylish barn conversion in the beautiful South Hams - quiet location, sleeps 6

Stylish barn conversion in the beautiful South Hams - quiet location, sleeps 6

10/10 Excellent
"Cote barn is a fantastic place to holiday, in a lovely village. Frogmore is small but beautiful with lots of fabulous beaches on hand. The house is set rurally at the top of a track but still walkable to the pub! It’s a very easy drive to the shops to stock up and to all the sights and beaches. Plenty of lovely places to eat close by, we would recommend the Bear and Blacksmith pub, absolutely amazing food and just 5 minutes drive. This is our second visit, this time with just one teen who loved the downstairs space to himself with his own bathrooms! Sally is an excellent host, always had excellent communication and fast response to queries. We had fabulous weather, so out at a beach most days, however the house is set up with tv, books, jigsaws etc… for rainier days. We love the south hams and love cote barn!"
