The previous owners, Michael and Amanda were always going to be a tough act to follow. But Nicky has definitely matched their high standards. A brilliant Three nights stay, and excellent service all round. Would definitely love to come back again!

The Harrabeer Country House Hotel is in an absolutely wonderful location and the hotel itself can only be described as a credit to the lovely new owner Nicky and the obvious effort she's putting into her new venture. There was absolutely nothing too much trouble for her - and her breakfasts were really exceptional- I'm not the easiest person to cook for being almost vegetarian but she wasn't fazed at all and my food was fantastic. Nicky was a little apologetic about the room (she said it's going to be updated soon) but she needn't have worried - it was fine!

The en-suite was massive! It's going to be great returning to the hotel in the future and keeping up the friendship (she's really that nice) with Nicky and seeing her plans come to fruition. Next time we intend staying closer to the hotel and taking advantage of the local attractions- And there are plenty! Thanks For making our short stay a superb one. Dave Axford.

We have just had our first stay under the new management of the lovely Nicky. She was bubbly, thoughtful and did everything she could to make our stay comfortable. Her thoughtfulness was evident in multiple areas - the special on the breakfast menu, her offer of tea and biscuits on arrival and her service at breakfast. We have booked for a few weeks from now and are looking forward to our next stay!

Wow! Loved it. Wonderful warm welcome, complimentary tea and coffee on arrival. Super comfy bed and I guarantee you will leave the breakfast room happier than when you entered. Both hosts so nice. A really really pleasant stay. Thank you so much. (And for the cakes for our journey)

A very beautiful country house with excellent food, Michael and Amanda are the perfect hosts, welcoming, entertaining and kind. Nothing is too much trouble. We stayed in the upper half of their barn, could not fault anything, very comfortable, the photo's do not do it justice. You will not be disappointed.

Stunningly beautiful barn conversion. Nicely presented throughout and biggest pro was the space inside and the fact it was all ground floor. Everything you need for self catering and they've even thought of the little things. It's in the center of Yelverton, so the perfect base to explore from. There was a bit of a mix up when we arrived but we knew the owner was away so kind of expected something to go awry. Only real down side is you can hear everything the person is doing upstairs through the wooden floorboards.
