- Mr Archer, September 2020
“Nice spot, welcoming and laid back, everything you need, would certainly recommend the cottage”

- Ms Measham, August 2020
“This holiday cottage was what you see is what you get.”

.the photos and descriptions are very accurate. the cottage is immaculately clean and well stocked with everything you need. we would not return only for 2 reasons. 1 was no WiFi and the other us that the shared patio really is very shared and as peoplelike to eat outside if the weather permits, you are practically eating at the table next to your neighbours. if you don’t mind being so close to the holiday house next to you then this is a lovely holiday house, and especially if you have or like dogs.

- Mrs Mcgill, July 2020
“Excellent peaceful location, cottage was a good size and beautifully kept.”

- Mrs Marshall, March 2020
“I thought the cottage was lovely and perfect for what I needed.”

I could not be more pleased with the hospitality of the hosts Annette and Roy. My complete gratitude to both. Thank You

- Mrs Wharton-howard, January 2020
“Absolutely perfect, impeccably clean and well equipped with everything and more needed in a home from home.”

Beautiful and stylish, each room is spacious, light and airy and a very comfortable bed is dressed with good quality linen. Such a lovely place, tranquil but near facilities and villages if you want. Highly recommended, thank you

- Ms Low, January 2020
“We stayed at the cottage for 6 nights and found the location was ideal as not far from most towns.”

Cottage was lovely and warm with all the comforts you have at home but could of done without the dish washer and would of preferred a tumbler drier. It has a lovely large walk in shower and the large king size bed was very comfortable. The 2 seater sofa is also comfortable but low down hubby had to help me up a few times out of it. Overall a pleasant stay..

- Mrs Alderson, December 2019
“Anita was really welcoming and helpful.”

The apartment was lovely. We spent Christmas here and it seemed very homely. It was cosy and warm and had all the facilities we needed. I could not fault it. The location is quiet and rural, lovely sunrises over the fields. The garden centre, across the lane, did a great breakfast and lunch for those who couldnt be bothered to cook!! We enjoyed our stay so much that we will definately go to The Stables again. Jx

“VE RY FRIENDLY.”

ANNET LET US IN EARLY SHE DONE EVERYTHING TO HELP US ENJOY OUR BREAK.THE PLACE WAS IMACULATE

- Mr Connelly, October 2019
“A very clean, comfortable and well equipped place to stay in a convenient location.”

We were made to feel very welcome and that included the dog, she enjoys the freedom of staying here. The roadworks on a roundabout close by necessitated a short detour for some destinations but nothing too drastic and could not be heard from the cottage even as they worked through the night. The downside for us was the weather, it rained most days but no one can control that, as yet and we did have somewhere warm to come back to.

- Mrs Gore, September 2019
“Booked this holiday 30th August until 6th Sept 2019.”

.. Unfortunately we had to come home on the 3rd couldn't cope with accommodation any longer... The place was spotless and well equipped but not for the elderly or disabled like the property information led us to believe … Bedroom beautiful furnished with a King size bed … Bathroom lovely big walk in shower but no grab rail or Bath mat to step out onto and it was a wooden floor so very slippy … The lounge had a sofa and two chairs which were fine if you were young but we could not get up out of them they were so low and the sofa so soft … My husband had cancer surgery and follow up treatment so we thought this would be ideal for him … we resorted to sitting on hard kitchen type chairs to watch the tele not comfortable at all... Then to top it all we arrived Friday the 30th August and on Saturday morning 31st August the road had closed for 7 weeks … no diversion signs we had to keep going well out of our way to get anywhere we were not informed about this … I am not knocking The Old Stables it was spotless and well equipped like I previously said but needs some attention to make it more ideal for the elderly and disabled we paid out £436 pound for 3 days not happy we feel we were mis informed

- Mrs Copeland, August 2019

“We would certainly recommend a visit to this property.”

You receive a very warm welcome from the owners Annette & Roy. The property was excellent for us, very spacey and accommodating. The surrounding area and small villages are well within walking distance.
