Description
Retford 3.4 miles.
West Stable is a charming abode resting in Grove near Retford, in Nottinghamshire.
This countryside retreat boasts an open-plan living space, rural views and a woodburning stove.
Set on a working cattle farm, you may see farmland friends as you make your way to this neatly bricked converted stable.
Pull up and park the cars and enter to find a hallway with high vaulted ceilings.
Head through the glass door, providing the space with lots of natural light, to find a harmoniously designed open-plan living space.
The space is bright, stylish and homely with reclaimed stable features throughout.
Whip up a storm in the sleek kitchen, and chill any treats for your stay, then head to the dining area, ready for four guests.
Following dinner, take a seat on the leather sofas and enjoy your favourite film as the logs crackle on the woodburning stove.
Freshen up in the cloakroom nearby so you don’t miss the action on the screen.
When the sun sets, ascend the stairs with a large arched window.
You will find two bedrooms: a twin room with a Velux window, where you can use the electric blinds for added convenience, and a king-size bedroom featuring charming archways from the stables.
You will also find a family bathroom with walk-in shower.
In the morning, enjoy a brew in the garden or dine alfresco with reclaimed stone flooring and lovely far-reaching views.
There is a lovely, family-run farm shop just around the corner, and fishing lakes for any keen anglers.
The property is perfectly located to enjoy a walk, with four footpaths within the farm - one passing through Castle Hill Wood Site of Special Scientific Interest and two leading into nearby Retford.
Explore exhibitions at Bassetlaw Museum, enjoy the expansive garden and delve into art and local history.
Take woodland walks at National Trust's Clumber Park, admire the scenic lake, visit the gothic chapel, treat yourself to ice cream and explore the delightful kitchen garden.
Head to Tropical Butterfly House Wildlife Conservation Park to encounter meerkats, birds of prey and other fascinating species.
For a relaxing getaway West Stable provides an idyllic countryside base.

What guests are saying
A very well designed conversion from stable to holiday cottage in a relaxing and peaceful rural location.
It has a Farm Shop/cafe which can deliver meals to West Stable. It has a lovely large pond with plenty of wildlife and private fishing. Within driving distance of many interesting places including Lincoln, Doddington Hall & Gardens, Sherwood Forest, Clumber NT Park, The National Holocaust Museum. All in all we had a very enjoyable week and would definitely recommend.
Excellent accommodation top of the range white goods cooking pans and comfortable.
Gill the owner was very friendly and helpful and anything extra that is needed is only too willing to supply. There is even cleaning products supplied. Top of the range soap and shampoo products too. The area is quiet but in easy travelling distance to Lincoln and Nottingham and Doncaster for the race goers. Day trip to the coast all within driving distance. Market town of Retford has all the supermarkets and shops you will need. Plus onsite farm shop . This property could easily be awarded 5 stars. Would highly recommend this stay for anyone wanting to have a quiet serene holiday. Wanted to extend our stay but unfortunately it was fully booked.
The property is obviously fairly fresh to the holiday accommodation market and it would be useful if the owners/caretakers had more detailed knowledge of how the properties facilities worked, such as the EV charger, upstairs heating and the TV operation.
