    The beautiful cup cakes, milk in fridge and biscuits for the dog were a nice touch. Top marks for cleanliness which made us feel comfortable and relaxed. We will be back. Steve and Marie.

    Thank you for your lovely feedback, we are pleased you enjoyed the cupcakes. We have shared your cleaning comments with our team, they will appreciate it Best wishes Jarrod and Steph Property Owner

  • "This was our second trip to The Stables (we never stay in the same place more than once) and as last time, we had a wonderful stay, with our two dogs."

    The log burner and hot tub were most welcome! The property is always clean and comfortable. The dogs love the run of the garden and the dog wash was extremely well used after some VERY muddy walks. My only criticism (if I had to give one) is that the zip link bed could do with a mattress topper so you don't feel like you are falling down the middle. We are 100% going to be booking again.

    Hi Jenni, Thank you so much for such lovely feedback, we really do appreciate it and glad that the dog wash had its benefits Thank you for the feedback about the bed, we are actually in the process of replacing the zip and link bed to a king size bed and this should be here with us in the next 6 weeks. We look forward to seeing you again Best wishes Jarrod and Steph Property Owner

    The property was spotless and everything you need is thought of and catered for. The hot tub as always a fabulous treat and was well used and most welcome no matter the weather! The local area has much to see and do from national trusts or close to the towns hereford or ross on wye. The stables is a good base for exploring this area. For us we just kicked back and really chilled out. We really do thank steph and jarrod for going the extra mile and sharing such a luxury pet friendly gem. For us it is a wonderful peaceful haven away from a manic city life. Shame we are back home and shift work calling us!

    Hi Vicky, Thank you so much for the card and gift, that was really very kind.

    It was kitted out with everything we needed for the perfect stay. On arrival it was very clean and we really appreciated the welcoming cupcakes! Delicious! Our dog was also very settled there and loved exploring the shared open space between the accommodations. The bed was extremely comfy, although the join between the twin beds took a while to get used to. That was probably the only thing we would change. We loved the hot tub, very relaxing! We would definitely stay again, especially as it was in a great location for exploring Hereford, Worcester, and many other nice attractions within short driving distance. 10/10, absolutely perfect!

    Myself, my mum and our Labrador Jaxx stayed for 2 nights. Very spacious and well decorated. Extremely clean! After a long drive from Manchester, we relaxed in the hot-tub for a couple of hours. It was so comfortable and extremely relaxing. The bed was extremely comfy and we both enjoyed a long sleep. Separate towels provided for the hot-tub and bathroom. We went to the Credenhill Woods for a walk with the dog. Very hilly but it was well enjoyed. Then we went to the Bastion Street Festival in Hereford town centre which was incredible.

    The property is comfortable and well furnished. It proved a great base for exploring the beautiful countryside of Herefordshire and Shropshire with our dogs. The owners Jared and Steph left us pretty much to our own devices, but did stop for a quick chat. We were blessed with some fantastic weather and left feeling refreshed and revitalised. If pressed on what could have been better, I would say maybe a larger coffee pot and some cooking tongs would be a nice addition to the already comprehensive inventory.

    The surrounding area was gorgeous and we highly recommend the cross keys for a quaint walking distance pub they were so friendly, Hereford Cathedral is a must with the amazing Mappa Mundi and the black and white house trail is such a nice way to spend a day - we particularly fell in love with Weobley and had lunch twice at The Green Bean. After all the exploring The Stables was the perfect retreat. We loved using the hot tub after long walks and enjoying the fire. It's done out to a really high standard and has everything you need for the perfect trip away. The hosts were also really helpful when needed. We highly recommend.

    Whole site is very attractive. It’s in a pleasant area of the countryside with plenty of places to visit within a few miles. The Stables is well set out and very comfortable. It’s light but has blinds and curtains for privacy. A lovely welcome pack so we could have a coffee and orange juice with the tasty cup cakes provided - and even treats for our dog. Our dog loved it, was very happy to play in the communal enclosed garden; the dog wash was useful. Owners unobtrusive but pleasant and quick to help with any little queries. Hot tub was a real treat. Everything we needed was provided, an airer, pizza cutter, even a hairdryer in the drawer and an iron in the wardrobe. (We always take a USB plug on holiday). One very minor problem was our dog slept in the snug and the automatic light there came on if he moved in the night

    Thank you for such lovely feedback, we have recently added the addition of a blind in the lounge for privacy and appreciate your comments. We are going to look at the sensor light Friday on our changeover day to see if we can find a solution Property Owner

  • "We have had the most fantastic week at The Stables."

    The accommodation is some of the best we have stayed in. It is literally a home from home and the log burner and hot tub were most welcomed. The only additional items that would have been appreciated are a pizza cutter and a clothes airer (as we got very muddy some days and made good use of the washing machine). The dogs loved having a run of the shared garden and having the use of a dog wash station was very handy. The hosts were brilliant and gave enough privacy but were on hand if required. The location is also outstanding. It is within an hour of the Shropshire Hills, Malvern Hills, Brecon Beacons and The Wye Valley and we certainly did a lot of exploring. We loved it so much we are already looking at booking again next year!

    Thank you so much for your kind feedback, we are pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us. So sorry about the missing drier , there is one for the stables but it had been cleaned and not put back. We have ordered a pizza slicer, thanks for the recommendation.

  • "On arrival at The Stables we were very impressed with the overall set up."

    The accommodation was very clean and well presented. Outside area has been very well thought out and the Dog wash station was a welcome addition considering we have Springers who tend to attract mud. There were a few niggles for example the security lighting outside which kept us awake most nights we were there. Maybe the addition of curtains in the bedroom would help keep the light out. Also the automatic lighting when entering the bathroom was rather annoying, especially during the middle of the night. Privacy when sitting in the louge was also a factor as other guests were parking outside our property to load and unload their belongings and could see straight in. The main gate to access other properties was outside the main window, again crating issues of privacy. We had a major issue with the electricity being cut off whilst there which we were never notified about. It went off whilst i was in the shower without prior warning. We contacted the owner who informed us they were only told about it the previous day so a little courtesy would have been appreciated. Taking all this in to account I don't think we would return to The Stables.

    We are sorry to hear your feedback about the stables. We do take all of the feedback we get seriously and will always consider what more we can do to ensure guests have a positive stay at the Stables. The large window is being fitted with a privacy blind on Friday of this week to ensure that all future guests feel they have privacy without feeling the need to close the curtains. The notification of the power cut was only brought to our attention after it had happened, we are sorry for the short disruption but unfortunately it was outside of our control.

    The big window really could do with a voile or something as when people walk by they do look in at you.also there wasn't any manuals for the cooker or microwave. That would be helpful. Something that really should be mentioned in the description is how busy the main road actually is as its quite noisy and if like us you are not used to noise it's hard to get used to.we live in a quiet area so a busy road right next to us wasn't what we were expecting. Having said that I would definitely stay again but opt to stay in luggs view or little lugg as further back from the road. The hot tub is great if its something you like. All in all a lovely property

    Hello, Thank you for your feedback, we are pleased you enjoyed your stay. We do always appreciate feedback and will be responding to yours in the following way: We will add instructions for the cooker to the welcome pack. We have contacted our interior designer today and we will be adding voile blinds to the window which will allow privacy from people who walk by but will not reduce the lightness that floods into the room because of the big windows. We do understand that the Stables is near a country road and is prone to some country traffic. We look forward to welcoming you again Best wishes Jarrod and Steph Property Owner

    Excellent facilities, we needed for nothing. All situated on the ground floor as a converted barn. A large king size bed, an en suite bathroom with a walk in shower. A fabulous kitchen dining and lounge area combined. There was everything we needed, with table top freezer, microwave, toaster. There was a log burner if needed but we didn’t use as weather was still fairly mild at the end of September. The added bonus was the private hot tub in the little paved area outside the property. Beyond our private courtyard area there was a gate out on to the nice communal enclosed garden which is shared with other holiday properties on site, making it a nice secure area to let your dogs have a roam around safely. We would highly recommend a stay at this wonderful property.

Also, other guests have to pass your living area to access their accommodation and will stare in through the very large window so you have to close the curtains which cuts out your main light. Overall a nice place to stay, and very convenient for Hereford.

It was a delightful place for our dogs, who loved the open garden area, but also very useful to have our own private little courtyard. The only small point is that the fridge has no freezer compartment, so ice blocks for cool bags couldn’t be frozen even. I’m sure Steph and Jarold would have helped if we were desperate. Would happily stay again.

    It was absolutely immaculate, homely and just perfect for a little getaway. The outdoor space is amazing and has been finished to a very high standard. We loved the hot tub and the wood burner. The personal touches of drinks, delicious cakes and treats for bear, were a lovely gesture. The Stables is in the perfect location, a short drive into Hereford. Where we shopped, had coffee at the Bookshop and dinner at the Burger Shop ( Both that we would reccomend). The Cross Keys pub across the road, is absolute must to visit, it really is like stepping back in time. With a real old fashioned push button till, cash is the only way to pay. So don't forget your pennies!!!!!! On the door step Aylestone park was ideal for our puppy to run off lead and meet new furry friends. Thank you Jarrod for your suggestions of biking and walking routes. We ventured to the Malvern hills, which was amazing we parked on the Camp carpark and enjoyed a delicious breakfast at the Malvern hills Hotel (dog friendly) before embarking on the hill climbs. We also visited Haugh Woods again only 15 minutes away, as part of the forestry commision it is both pathed and wooded routes. Thank you both Jarrod and Steph for your hospitality, your place is just perfect. I will be highly reccomending to all and will be singing about The Stables to whoever wants to listen....

    .comfortable bed, sofa, excellent shower and hot tub and thoughtful extras left such as quality soap, milk and starter packs of butters and jams. We agreed with previous comment that the TV was too high when sitting on the sofa. Other suggestions which would have made this a perfect stay for us.. Description should say c.30 yards from a busy road, we often had fumes coming in from the only opening window in the bedroom so also better ventilation would help. Duvet at 10.5togs was too hot for summer so a top sheet would help as an alternative. Curtain by door needed for privacy. Surprised at 5star rating when there was no dishwasher and washing up area was cramped. Mirrors needed in shower room and hallway and sensor lights turned off when in the shower! Wind triggered the sensored outside lights. Dustpan and brush or vacuum cleaner needs to be available to help keep the floor clear and in case of breakages.

  • "We have just got back from a 4 night stay at The Stables."

    It was perfect. Arrival and key collection was an extremely easy process. There is sufficient parking and on immediately entering the grounds you sense the high quality the owners are clearly working hard to achieve. The Stables itself was immaculate. Everything we required was there along with surprising extras which were not expected. Our dog loved his dog treats and immediately felt at home. Thank you! The hot tub was very private and the large garden area was an added bonus. The bed was extremely comfortable and the log burner (logs provided) was an added bonus! The worst part was leaving! We definitely will be returning!

    Only thing I would suggest is that the sofa is quite uncomfortable and small. However we will 100% return and everything else was amazing. Lastly, the welcome gift was a lovely touch. Thanks !

    Extremely comfortable accommodation containing everything you need for a short break. Good recommendations for nearby places to eat. Nice grass area to take our small dog. Accommodation close to a road without pavements so did not feel comfortable to walk with our small dog, but not a problem as plenty of close by walks in area that you can drive to. Excellent base to visit surrounding areas.

  • "Fantastic holiday destination extremely happy with the level of service provided."

    The photos look appealing however when you visit the property it looks even more beautiful and laid out perfectly than expected and well worth your money. The rooms were extremely clean and a few complimentary gifts just made it feel extra special and that added personal touch. Best value for your money and the hot tub is located in a private area and certainly does the trick so you can feel relaxed and enjoy the sunshine. The grounds are well maintained and your car will be safe in a secure car parking area. Thank you so much for making our stay welcome and I would highly recommend this fantastic place to stay.

About the location

HEREFORD

Leominster 14 miles.

The cathedral city of Hereford dates back to Saxon times, and with its medieval bridge over the winding River Wye it is the very image of picturesque England. With a mix of buildings from almost every British era, eclectic Hereford is a popular base for those seeking to explore the locale – being ideally placed for accessing the Black and White villages of the region, not to mention the delights of neighbouring Shropshire, Worcestershire and The Cotswolds. Famous as a cider producing town, Hereford is also the home of the Mappa Mundi, the largest and most elaborate pre-15th century map in existence, which resides in the cathedral alongside the famous Chained Library – a collection of over 1500 rare books from as early as the 8th century. Nearby is the half timbered town of Leominster, filled with medieval buildings, often overhanging the street, and also accessible is the natural splendour of Symonds Yat, a rocky outcrop on a 5 mile bend of the River Wye, with spectacular views and the opportunity to spot protected peregrine falcons flying from their nests.
