As you drive up the impressive well manicured drive with the daffs out in all their glory, you get a feeling of whats to come. Our lovely hostess Julia met us on arrival and soon had us sat out side enjoying a fab Devon cream tea. Immediately you sense the peace and quiet of the locale. The sheep and lambs... More

We selected Larkbeare for its proximity to Exeter where our son now attends University. As we pulled into the long tree lined drive we had a feeling that our two night stay here would be something quite special. Charlie & Julia are the consummate hosts and their attention to detail and care about what they do is such a welcome... More

Simply the Best! What a wonderful relaxing treat it was to spend two nights enjoying the TLC which is the ‘Larkbeare Experience’. Easily found, nestling in a beautiful rural setting, Larkbeare Grange smiled at us from across the fields as we approached before being greeted so warmly by Julia and Charlie. They soon have us settled in and, in front... More

The set-up of two bedrooms and bathroom in... More

Charlie and Julia provide and excellent experience through lots of thoughtful small details that are " the difference that makes a difference". Do not miss the opportunity to stay here if you can. From the warm greeting to the great food and lovely bedrooms everything is based on quality. More

I recently spent 3 nights at Larkbeare and would agree with the reviews of those who have stayed before. Welcoming, comfortable, lovely breakfasts with exceptional apple juice !!! No need for a clock if you stay in the South Room, as I did, because the sheep in the field opposite have a very set routine. The luxury of having a... More

We stayed at Larkbeare for 3 nights in September and throughly enjoyed it. The location of the house feels rural but it's just 2 miles to the A30 making it an ideal spot for those who want the best of both worlds! Right from the start we were made to feel so welcome by Charlie and Julia. They really have... More

This is how it is done! Luxury, elegance, comfort and a feeling of being treated as somebody special. Well done Julia, you have definitely got the knack of making your guests feel at home and your property is outstanding plus the the English breakfast is to die for! More
