What to expect

Weeke Barton should feel like a home from home and at the same time offer everything you need for a special time away. Although we are here to help, you are also free to just be. We have been mindful in our choices of products, ingredients and design, we always strive to leave as small an environmental footprint in this special part of Dartmoor as we can. It’s just us and the very lovely Sarah doing what we love to do, oh and our ever ready to play spaniels, Coco and Winston With the occasional appearance from the teenage son.

We have always been about making you comfortable and safe and in these new days we have ramped that up. Any changes are explained as you read through the website. We have compromised nothing, gone above and beyond on some, and added a few new delights as well.

LINENs & Rooms

We designed the rooms to offer space and luxury within this ridiculously old house. Uncluttered but with everything you need. Statement linen is a must. Ours is 600 count Egyptian cotton and wrapped around 100% goose down duvets. Its like sleeping under a cloud. We keep our towels fluffy and extra large (is there any other way?), and there's a simple cotton robe. Complimentary teas and coffee are in every room.

TOILETRIES

Bottled by Bramley, nature has always been at the forefront of their minds given the Bramley range was first inspired by the British countryside surrounding them. Their mission is to create & sell environmentally friendly, beautiful bath, body & home products that make people happy and leave little or no footprint on the planet. We offer hand wash, shampoo, conditioner, body wash and bubble bath.

Dining On-Site

October to February we serve supper every FRIDAY at 7.30pm. A selection of handmade pies, organic veg and garden crumble, simple and super good.

YOU MUST PRE BOOK DINNER BY THURSDAY MORNING.

For those making a last minute booking please email to see if there is space.

On the days we are not serving we can recommend some awesome local places to try.

(Please see OUT & ABOUT in webiste navigation)

breakfast

Breakfast at Weeke Barton is a relaxed time of day. Served between 9-10am (if your up with the larks just let us know) in the dining room or on the terrace weather permitting. Our Devon sourced breakfast menu is included in your rate and can viewed here

In-House Bar

Everyone should have their own bar. Ours is honest and fully loaded, open to guests 24/7. It is snug and old skool cool. We looked local first - think Dartmoor botanical gin, rum, whiskey and Dorset milk vodka, next door's sparkling wine, Dartmoor ale and Devon cider. Then we chose Bio-dynamic wines selected for their flavour and credentials. Shake your own martini, pour your own beer. Play bartender, its a great game.

You can BYO if you have something special we do not stock, we do charge a corkage of £10 per bottle if you do.

gardens

Set to the front of the house is nearly 5 acres of lawn and field. The top 2 lawns are yours exclusively, offering high views up and down the valley, a pétanque pitch, a huge wooden table that seats 12 comfortably and a fire pit and star gazing den. Go through the gate and into the field. Open plan space - a stream, a pond, a ship wrecked boat and a play den. Rustic fun for adventurous kids who love a bit of mud and river action. Perfect.
