The exposed beams and vaulted ceilings define this barn conversion's character. Original timber beams span the main living spaces overhead whilst thick stone walls show the building's agricultural past. The open-plan layout makes the most of the barn's generous proportions with height and space that modern houses can't match. These features aren't decorative additions but the actual structure of a working farm building converted for comfortable holiday living.

Pet Friendly

No, Waterland Old Barn is not pet friendly. The owners have chosen to keep the property free from pets to maintain standards for all guests. If you're travelling with a dog, you'll need to look at other barn conversions in Devon that welcome animals.
