  • "We had a lovely stay here."

    The cottage is down a long stone track through fields where we saw deer and rabbits. We were welcomed by the owner on arrival and there was a lovely welcome pack. The sofas were comfortable and the kitchen had all the equipment you need. It was handy to have walk in showers and bedrooms on both floors. The location was good for exploring the coast. We would love to return.

    Thank you for you great review... we are glad you enjoyed you stay and got to see some of our local wildlife. We look forward to welcoming you again in the future. Property Owner

  • "We very much enjoyed our stay at The Old Stable."

    The heating was on for our arrival & the welcome pack was a lovely surprise and much appreciated. The property was spacious, clean and very comfortable. Rosie quickly resolved a temporary tv issue (might have been user error?) and we had a lovely time. We visited Burton Agnes Hall, Burton Constable Hall, Humber Bridge Country Park, Spurn Point, Hornsea, Mappleton Beach and Beverley. Our favourite was the Hessle Foreshore Walk which on a sunny, albeit cold, day had lovely views and was relaxing. Thankyou for a lovely restful break

    Thank you for your thoughtful review.. we are glad you enjoyed your stay and enjoyed so many local attractions. Property Owner

  • "We really enjoyed our stay at the Old Stables."

    The location was excellent; plenty of privacy, tranquil and very relaxing. We contacted James one of the Owners regarding turning on the heating, he responded immediately. No other concerns surfaced. The Welcoming pack was really appreciated. The beds were really comfortable and the bedding of very good quality. We were lucky with the weather and manged to visit the Coast every day. We would strongly recommend a visit to nearby Beverley: the Saturday market is brilliant. We would definitely return. Many thanks to Rosie and James.

    Thank you for the lovely feed back... glad you got to enjoy the local area and we look forward to welcoming you both again. Best wishes James and Rosie Property Owner

  • "A beautiful property, love the beams & high ceilings."

    We had a great stay at The old Stable. So peaceful & relaxing. All you could hear were birds & horses. The property had everything you could need while on holiday. The beds/ mattress' were so comfortable, we slept really well. The food/treat package was a lovely touch. Great to have 2 separate lovely bathrooms & ideal with 1 bedroom & bathroom downstairs. Slight downside as previously mentioned a bit more attention to detail of the cleaning, though we appreciate it's in the countryside. Thanks for a lovely stay.

    Thank you for your review.. glad you enjoyed a relaxing time with us. Property Owner

  • "The directions need modifying."

    The mattresses are very hard for our liking and need a topper or replacing to gain a decent night sleep.

    Thank you for the feed back.. we will notify Sykes who provided the directions...fortunately you were able to find us as we also provided a what3words link, contact number via text on the day of arrival should you have any problems with directions and we are visible on Google maps. We are sorry you did not find the mattress to your liking.. we understand everyone is different which is why we provide "Tempur" mattresses which are designed to mould to any shape but may be more supportive then you are used to. I hope you otherwise enjoyed your stay with us. best wishes... James and Rosie Property Owner

    On arrival, the property was immaculate and a welcome pack of essentials and treats was provided. It was quiet and very comfortable with everything that we could need.

  • "We had a wonderful, relaxing two weeks in this beautiful cottage."

    There was nothing we would change. The seating and the beds were very very comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. Rosie is lovely and checked on us once to make sure we were happy (which we were) and then left us to our own devices (which is how we like it). We had her phone number if we wanted anything. Altogether a happy time was had by all three of us.

    Many thanks for your feed back.. we are glad you were able to relax and enjoy yourselves... (we have a pair of Curlews this week in the field joining the Roe Deer...!).. best wishes Rosie and James. Property Owner

  • "Absolutely thrilled with every aspect of our holiday property."

    The Old Stable is a spacious, well laid out cottage with high ceilings and a contemporary finish. The kitchen is large and contains everything you need, the dining table accommodates 8 people and the living room is welcoming and would seat everyone comfortably. The master bedroom is gorgeous; the Juliet balcony frames the setting sun perfectly. The second bedroom is a reasonable size double and both bathrooms are clean, stylish and have lots of surface space for your bits and pieces. The sunny courtyard has a table and chairs for you to enjoy a morning cup of coffee. The parking is close to your front door so loading and unloading the car is easy and convenient. We loved our short stay at The Old Stable and look forward to coming back in the future.

  • "On walking through the kitchen door we realised what a special property the Old Stables is, in a quiet rural setting yet within a few minutes drive to the coast."

    A gorgeous renovation of former stables, the property is huge with only the highest standard of fixtures, fittings and equipment; incredibly powerful showers, fluffy white towels, crisp white bedlinen and the comfiest beds we have ever slept in! The owner even left a wonderful welcome basket along with milk and butter in the fridge and was happy to help with any queries we had. The only downside was the damp and windy weather but with this gorgeous retreat to come back to it didn't really spoil our break! Thank you, Rosie and James
