About this property

Overlooking the Majestic River Dart Beside Agatha Christies Beautiful Greenway H

For the romantic, why not snuggle up in front of our huge log fire and read a book or watch a film. It's a perfect getaway to the country. Table tennis and pool in our games room, beaches nearby, walks from the front door, in fact once you're here you will hardly want to use the car. Dartmouth Kingswear and Dittisham via the numerous ferry boats that run up and down the river. Agatha Christies Greenway is a short walk from the house so no parking problems.

A Curate's Egg, good in parts
A large property and big enough for eight people to be comfortable. Views from the front of the property towards the River Dart were exquisite. Gardens not maintained as well as they might have been, they have huge potential. The house is furnished with French antiques, all acceptable, many very nice indeed. Bathrooms were modern and stylish. The kitchen is large and had all you would want for preparation of meals. Cutlery, crockery, glassware and other utensils often did not match or were not in prime condition. Lounges were comfortable and TVs were good with multiple channels. The principal Lounge and Dining Room were very impressive because of their size and furnishings. We enjoyed our stay despite some misgivings.

Great house for groups
This is a perfect house for a group of 8 or 10 people. The house is extremely well equipped, each room has an ensuite, there is a game room with a pool table and a hot-tub! The place is beautiful, with tons of space and is a perfect place to get together with family and friends. Lots of walks right from the house. The owner was very responsive and happy to help out with anything you need.

Higher Greenway Barn - ideal getaway
The property has the most amazing view of the river and had everything we needed for a great stay including hot tub and games room. The owners are lovely and made sure we had all the info we needed for shopping, restaurants and activities. Perfect family holiday!

Splendid, secluded and beautiful spot
This is a lovely property with plenty of space for all. There were five of us but more would be fine. The bedrooms were spacious and it was lovely to all have ensuites with plumbing and equipment that worked well. The games room was a favourite and the hot tub was much enjoyed. The secluded courtyard was a lovely spot and the garden very nice. Views over the valley were super and we greatly enjoyed hearing and seeing the steam trains pass by. Lovely to sit and have tea and cake! Kitchen was well equipped but a little tired in places and rather a lot of chipped plates (not done by us). Enormous amount of fridge space and the dishwasher worked well.

Idyllic
Higher Greenway Barn is a stunning property in a beautiful location. We loved sitting out in the morning lazily watching the river activity and the occasional passing steam train. We enjoyed plenty of walks through ancient woodland and fields, Kingswear, Dartmouth, Dittisham and Greenway all easily accessible by foot and passenger ferries. The barn is spacious and well-appointed, and the games room was a great favourite. Would love to revisit and explore more of Devon.

About the host

Hosted by Mr and Mrs Sayers

Host profile image
We live in the Barn and have been here for three years with our dogs, we travel a lot and have family on the other side of the world. For some of the year we do bed and breakfast, but when we go on our travels, rather than leave this special house and home empty we rent it out. It has a magic that has left all our guests enchanted.
We were going to move to Spain originally as we could not find anything that hit the mark, but just driving down the track to the property you immediately fall in love with everything. We have spent the last 2 years
upgrading the barn which is over four thousand square feet of living area surrounded by National Trust land and set in an area of outstanding natural beauty.
You don't need a car once your here, the walks from the front door are incredible.

Why they chose this property

The reason is magic, the pure magic of Greenway.
It is so peaceful, an oasis overlooking the river with the
steam trains below, who wouldn't want to live here.

What makes this property unique

Its a large and homely house with lovely rooms and stunning views of the river and woods and the viaduct.
You find yourself so close to so much, yet once here - well you wont want to leave we think!
