Super Devon Getaway
This house was a fantastic find for our family get together.
Spacious and fully equipped, we wanted for nothing.
Beautiful grounds, well kept and away from any road noise.
Local supermarket close by and easy access to the A39 to assist with access to beaches.
We had such an enjoyable stay, I would definitely recommend.

Family Holiday
The home was amazing, welcomed with home baked scones, clotted cream and fresh milk from the dairy kiosk down the street. A well stocked kitchen for the cook in the family. The grandchildren loved the playing in the pool, parents enjoyed the hot tub. All enjoyed playing pool. Great way to bring in the new year.

Very easy, straightforward booking, check in/out instructions, use of pool times, etc. we all had the most amazing time there and discovering all the surrounding places. We loved the Milkiost, just down the road. We would highly recommend High Park House for any large family/families holiday or celebrations!

Wonderful Stay
Thank you for an excellent week at High Park House. It was a big family reunion and the house swallowed us up no problem. The kids enjoyed the space and playing pool, picking apples and generally having fun. There’s also so much to see and do right on the doorstep - cycling, surfing, going to the beach and walking. Of course having the pool for them to let off a bit of steam or for us to go for an early morning swim was also superb.
Thanks

Fantastic place to stay
We spent an amazing week at High Park House from the 28th July. There were 14 of us including 3 young children. The house is lovely and big with fantastic amenities and a very nice big garden with a trampoline and a BBQ. The house is so big going from one end to the other is like a workout! The toys in the house for young children are a godsend. We had my 3 great nephews with us ages 2, 4 and 6 who had a great time playing with the toys which were all there for their enjoyment, there is a huge selection! We all loved the swimming pool and hot tub and made good use of it. There is a lake in the garden which is completely fenced in and secure, you have to use a keycode to get in. The house was exactly how we expected it and what we saw in the photos is exactly how it is. Its got everything you need and more. There is an Asda supermarket 5 minutes drive away so convenient for all the shopping that you might need. I would recommend Westward Ho! beach if you have children as its only a 10 minute drive to get there. I also have to say that Anne-Louise and Paul are very friendly and helpful and were always around if we needed to ask any questions or were not sure about something. Cannot recommend High Park House & Barns enough, fab place and area to stay.
