I recently enjoyed five nights at the amazing Sampson Barton with my Aunt who has friends in the area. The B&B was actually suggested to us by the Grove Inn pub in Kings Nympton- always solid when other local establishment makes a recommendation- and we were thrilled! I love driving on tiny little farm lanes [and argue frequently with the... More

Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to write this epic (in every sense of the word) review. You have set the scene wonderfully; we're so pleased that you had such a good stay with us and look forward to seeing you again when you next return to Devon. More

This is our second visit here, difficult to find but worth the effort, this is a lovely little guest house with very welcoming owners. The house is situated in the middle of nowhere, so is ideal to use for a peaceful getaway in the country, there are plenty of walks around and some delightful views. It has a large garden,... More

This has to be one of the best guest houses . Having relatives in the area, we have stayed here several times. Always a lovely, warm welcome from Bev and Neil. Breakfasts are great. Dinner - always delicious. Imaginative menus , beautifully cooked and amazingly well priced. In the colder weather the log fire in the guests' lounge is lovely.... More

Firstly, make suer that you know exactly where Sampson Barton Guest house is located. I use TomTom (worldwide) and the postcode results in arriving in a wooded narrow country lane about 3/4 mile from the Guest House. In fact the approach from the South is much easier. We had to call Bev for directions. On arrival after a dreadful motorway... More

We stayed at the Sampson Barton from 13th July for 3 nights and really did not want to leave. The hospitality from Neil and Bev was exceptional and the hearty breakfasts were wonderful. The beautiful Farmhouse in the midst of the quiet countryside is so relaxing and immaculately clean.. You will not come across two nicer people who will go... More

My husband and I have just returned from staying at Sampson Barton guest house. Bev and Neil's hospitality was very welcoming and sincere. We stayed in Room 5 which was quite a small room with en suite shower room. Due to the weather and aspect of the room, we were quite cold, but there was a heater provided which we... More

From the moment we arrived, we knew this place was a keeper. A warm welcome from Bev and Neil, beautiful location, stunning home and scrupulously clean. We stayed over the busy jubilee weekend with the normal British weather and there was no pressure to get out from under their feet or made to feel you were a nuisance. The food... More
