Family-friendly holiday rentals in Devon

We had a wonderful stay at Bridesmere over New Year and it was just what we needed. Peaceful, beautiful area, lovely comfortable home from home. We appreciated the enclosed garden for our spaniel, the beautiful and spacious bedrooms and the living area which was large enough for all 7 of us, two families. WiFi was strong upstairs so no issue with all of us connected and the tv had all apps we needed to watch films with no buffering. There is a beautiful walk through the forest along the river just minutes from the house which leads to a very nice pub serving good food. As other reviews mention, the kids room smells a little musty/damp but this was not a huge issue and we opened the bathroom window after showering which helped. Kitchen well stocked but knives are a little blunt! Children loved the games barn and not having to bring bikes with us was really helpful and appreciated. Overall we couldn’t have asked for a nicer stay and we would definitely return. Thank you for having us.

We had such a lovely stay at the lodges, after not very many holidays having 3 young children this was the perfect fit. So much close by - farm park, beaches but also some amazing restaurants too. In the evening when kids are tucked up you can sit under the well styled and beautifully lit and thought out balcony watching the 'nightlife'. It was most certainly the break we needed and one we will remember for a very long time.

Absolutely stunning home in a stunning location. Fantastic for a large family of different ages. Will absolutely book again. Thank you!

Beautiful in so many ways!! The views are outstanding and location is so peaceful. Lovely outside space with all you may need. Watching the outside countryside while in the hot tub was stunning. The hut had all you needed with the finishing touches. Well equipped kitchen and the bed was very comfy. Supermarket only 5 minutes drive and lovely local pubs. We weren’t greeted with the weather but still a lovely place to set the fire and enjoy the views, Highly recommend! Will definetly be returning! ❤️

Perfect place to stay, made very welcome, plenty of goodies, had to leave some! Spectacular views, especially from the hot tub. Sheila & Martin are the perfect hosts. Highly recommend. Wonderful apartment with everything you could possibly need for the 4 of us (3 humans & a 4 legged friend)

Me and the family (5 adults plus 2 dogs!) stopped at this property, & it was perfect! The surroundings are beautiful & peaceful, & the wood fired hot tub really is such a luxury! Pollyanna & her family were friendly & extremely helpful. Communicating instructions prior to arrival, along with being there to welcome us, & on hand for anything needed during our stay. The property itself was spacious & had everything we needed, whilst being located a short drive away from points of interest in the area! Can not recommend this place enough, & would love to return myself one day!

what a fantastic place! the cabin is beautiffuly decorated, squeaky clean and very comfortable, fully equipped with everything you could need. both beds are super comfy. the hot tub and fire pit made evenings an absolute pleasure. it was so quiet and peaceful. lovely walks nearby. highly recommend!

Possibly the best Airbnb I have stayed in. Such a unique, beautiful spot. The bedrooms are super spacious with super comfortable beds and it was great to have the two toilets. The property has everything you need and has been thoughtfully designed. Everywhere was spotless! The log burner was lovely to use at night and the hot tub with the stunning views and surroundings is just perfect! We saw so many different types of birds whilst there! We would love to return and will recommend to others.

First of all i want to say how beautiful the cottage is, it is a lovely cottage to stay in like home from home, did not need anything, all there for you, really comfortable bed, the garden was inclosed and peaceful, the cottage was lovely and clean, and very cosy in the evenings, James & Isabel left us some local biscuits and milk, which was needed after nearly 5 and 1/2 traveling! lovely hot drink we were blessed with beautiful weather, visited Lyme Regis which was not too far away to travel, West Bay, Weymouth, Beer and Seaton did quite a bit Thank you for letting us share this beautiful cottage, would definitely stay there again Anna & James from Bedford

We had an amazing time here. Perfect for dog walks along the beach just a stones throw away. Lovely pubs within a few miles and a great all round location to stay. Will definitely be back!

What a wonderful place to stay. Friendly host, beautiful surroundings, cosy inside. The log burner was a lovely thing to have when the weather turned wet and windy!Or dogs also loved having access to the field adjacent to the cottageOne thing to bear in mind, if you are over 6 foot you won’t be able stand fully upright in parts of the kitchen, although this didn’t bother my husband too much.

Brilliant house with stunning views and great amenities. Host was always quick to respond and very helpful with plenty of recommendations for local pubs and restaurants. Would highly recommend for any large groups or families looking for a long weekend away to switch off.

We have had a fantastic stay at The Swallows. This was our first family holiday with our two daughters, their partners and our one year old Granddaughter. The location was perfect and the accommodation had everything we needed. It was spotlessly clean. We loved being able to use the pizza oven for cooking and the location was perfect to visit all of our favourite haunts. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

we just returned from a weekend at wagtails. We had a wonderful stay. Johanne was extremely accommodating. allowed us to arrive slightly earlier and a relaxed check out was given too! we stayed with our disabled dog and as the grass was a little to long for him to move around in Johanne even accommodated striming the grass for him! I couldn't fault the property. Everything was explained and we were greeted on arrival. the bathroom was a gorgeous supirse with a freestanding bath. we felt at home and able to relax at ease. The surroundings are gorgeous, our two year old loved exploring. We will definitely book again in the future. lovely hosts!

We had a wonderful stay at Tracey and Simon’s place. Really enjoyed our time and would love to return. Four of us were comfortable and we particularly enjoyed the living space and the outside seating area where we had our coffee and breakfast, overlooking the valley. Tracey was very welcoming and informative and we appreciated her local knowledge. Can’t go wrong with this place!

We had a fantastic stay at Penn Barn. The barn is very tastefully furnished and comfortable, with everything you need for your stay. It is set in a beautiful location, with fantastic views from the sitting room, kitchen and patio overlooking the river. Whilst tight, you can get a good-sized car in the parking space. Kate was very helpful, with clear instructions and kind flexibility about check-in. We really enjoyed our time in Lerryn and will definitely look to book to stay at Penn Barn again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the pictures do not do this place justice, as it is much bigger than the pictures show. The annex was very clean and spotless. Ian & Katka (Hosts) were very proactive, friendly and welcoming and went the extra mile. The swimspa and hot tub are an absolute amazing feature of the property along with the balcony and views. We would highly recommend and would love to visit again.

Me and my partner have just finished our stay with alpine grove and would highly recommend visiting. We stayed in the woodpecker lodge and from the log burner to the hot tub everything about this lodge was perfect, Kieth and Serena service is amazing and we can’t wait to visit again soon. Thank you again for such an amazing stay.

A delightful stay in wonderful surroundings, views are sublime, home from home facilities, dog friendly property with lots of walks, well equipped kitchen although we didn't really cook as there are so many restaurants and bars to try! Julie ensured we had everything we needed and communicated well. look forward to a return visit when we have a bit more time to enjoy ourselves.

The Potting Shed is the perfect place to stay. The accommodation is well laid out and tucked away. Sam and Karen are friendly hosts but respect your privacy. We enjoyed sitting in the orchard area and were lucky with the weather. We walked to The Leather and Lace pub (10 min walk through the village), where we enjoyed a delicious burger. The pub is so interesting, full of retro accessories. The beer was well kept too. We enjoyed walking in the local area, visiting Glastonbury and walking further afield. Thank you Karen and Sam for your warm welcome and our generous goody basket, milk and local apple juice. We would definitely like to return. Mel and Simon

Had a great weekend over Easter at Jan’s place - a beautiful garden - the kids loved the trampoline and pool - we cooked BBQ outside our Accomodation kin the peaceful garden - had great fish and chips and a cider in Watchet - the nearest harbour town (10 min drive) - we also visited from the house; quantock hills (15 min drive) killer beach (15 min drive) minehead (40 mins) and linmouth - beautiful drive over Exmoor. Would definitely come back

Had a fantastic stay at Pristhole which is very well located in the pretty village of Stokenham, close to two pubs and roughly halfway between Salcombe and Dartmouth. Iona is really friendly and welcomed us on arrival and showed us around the grounds which are extremely well kept and the apartment was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. As a family of four with two daughters (aged 8 & 7), it was all perfect and on our first night we enjoyed a really nice walk via Tor Cross to the Tower Inn in Slapton for dinner and subsequent trips to Salcombe, Paper Bird Island/Kingsbridge, Woodlands Theme Park, Dartmouth and the nearby Stokeley Cafe and Farm Shop; all of which were great. We might just have to break our long-standing rule of not going back to visit the same place by returning to stay in future in the hope of better weather.

The 4th time we’ve stayed at Little Burston. The cottage has everything you need, is lovely and peaceful and private. Carol is a great host and responds promptly to any issues. A lovely stay as usual.

Just come back from Mistletoe Farm after celebrating a Hen weekend there. We all could not fault the hosts, they were incredible & always checking if we needed anything, so helpful throughout the whole stay. Mistletoe Farm is beautiful & so peaceful. Plenty to do within the property. We all especially loved the pool/hot tub & also the karaoke machine was a big hit. It really is the perfect place either for celebrating a special occasion or a family weekend. We all enjoyed our stay & said it is a place we would love to go back to. Thank you again to the amazing hosts. Would highly recommend this air b&b 😊
