Otter Barn Lakes Reviews

Mark
The cottage had everything we could ask for, with stunning views and a great spot for exploring Devon and Cornwall!
James
Great stay, comfy place, perfect spot, host was super friendly!
Ellie
We had such a wonderful stay at the Otter cottage! The three bedrooms and en suite were perfect for usand the spacious downstairs made relaxing easy. The dishwasher and washing machine were a real lifesaver. It was spotless when we arrived, with beautiful views and a hot tub on the terrace. We even caught a shooting star - magical! Truly excellent accommodation.
Emily Carter
Honestly, we loved our stay at Otter Barn. It totally exceeded what we expected. When we first stepped inside, it was a proper wow moment - so spacious and bright. The views from the living and dining areas are stunning. The kitchen had everything we needed, plus some extras. The beds were super comfyand the private terrace with a hot tub looked amazing (though we only managed to use it once because of the weather). Perfect spot for celebrating a birthday, no doubt!
Oliver
Overall, we had a lovely stay. The surroundings really are stunningand it's perfect for a last-minute escape. It's a bit pricey, especially out of season, but the place itself is charming. The little quirks didn't bother us too much either!
Emily
We had such a lovely stay at this peaceful barn. It's tucked away in a super quiet spot, way calmer than the busy seaside resorts of Cornwall. The location is great for exploring-only half an hour to Bude's beaches where we tried paddleboarding, coasteeringand swam in the crystal-clear sea. The trip to the Lost Gardens was a bit further but totally worth it. Lydford Gorge's waterfall was stunning. Honestly, it felt like better value than staying right on the coast. We'll definitely be coming back!
Emma Carter
We had such a lovely week at Otter Barn! The views over the lakes, especially at sunset, were simply breathtaking. Darren was incredibly helpful and friendly, making our stay even better. We appreciated the thoughtful touches like the welcome cream teas and fudge. The location was perfect for exploring Cornwall and Devon, with easy access to the A30. Nearby Homeleigh garden centre was a bonus for breakfast and lunch, plus the farm shop was charming. Definitely recommend this place!
Harper-Louise
We just got back after a fantastic 5-night stay celebrating my partner's 30th. Honestly, everything was spot on! The small touches like scones and milk made a differenceand the views were stunning. The owners are lovely and really do go above and beyond. Definitely recommend and hoping to come back soon!
Emma
This was honestly one of the best places we've stayed in a while. The hot tub was a hit with the teenagersand the robes were a lovely touch. Gorgeous views, cosy spaceand the hosts made us feel really welcome.
