It’s wonderful to note that guests are booking in to come and see both the ‘Dippers’ flying about and hunting on the River Teign with their distinct gizz and bob as they watch and wait for their next meal to float/swim/crawl past ……………..and others who’ve planned a variety of  walks along the river bank to see the marvel of Daffs, a short stemmed local variety with a charm of their own.

Spring Daffs on the

Edge of Dunsford’s famous stepping Stones across the River Teign

Ian’s favourite Fergie T20 Tractor used for Cider Pressing and other essential jobs around the place!!!

Lesley has helped me launch into the world of Trip Advisor promotion to assist Orchard Barn in both the Exeter and Dartmoor fields of e-finding me!!

It’s an exciting time as we’ve already had 5 or 6 enquiries since we started……..so it bodes well for our ‘Get Away’ ourselves plan!! Fingers Crossed.

And the Daffs are starting to come out again………………..it’s pure magic!!!!

Orchard Barn’s Bridge over River Teign New Year 2011

Oh for the warm Summer weather!!!

This is the Roseland Peninsular Cornwall taken from the Nairs Head on the National Trust Coastal footpath walk……………magic views.

Orchard Barn Bed and Breakfast just 7 miles from Exeter is idealy situated for anyone looking to stay on the Dartmoor National Park and be close to the Capital City of Devon and all its many wanderful facilities.

We’re on a quiet B Road en route to Mortonhampstaead which is another gateway onto the many and varied parts of the National Park……….our B&B overlooks the River Teign at the famous Dunsford Stepping Stones with all bedrooms having a panoramic view of the river and surrounding National Trust Woodland. It’s spectacular – take a look at orchardbarn.info and the 360 degree camera shots of both the house, gardens and the river.

ORCHARD BARN FRONTAGE

This is one of the most flexible properties to book into for either B&B or Self Catering situated on the principle gateway onto Dartmoor itself. Do look at the web at orchardbarn.info and see for yourself.

Cheers,

Orchard Barn is promoting self catering opportunites this year at an extremely reasonable rate……………at £100 per night for the whole house and all facilities for a minimum of 5 nights, this represents a real bargain.

The house was let for both Christmas and New Year……….and the plan is for Lesley and I to do a bit more traveling this year and so we’re promoting self catering via Trip Advisor and other media in order to build in short breaks throughout the year.

So if you’d still like Bed and Breakfast that’s fine, just ring or e-mail and ask and if rooms are available we’ll book you in……………if however you fancy a self catering option anytime over the year then again do contact us and float your prefered dates……….as long as it’s for a minimum of 5 nights we’ll look at it favourably and commensure with a confirmed booking , we’ll plan a short break holiday ourselves. There are just so many places we still want to go and visit, both home and abroad……….and this is a good year to do so.

So, if that floats your boats at all then do get in touch.

Cheers, Ian and Lesley
