  This is a fantastic and interesting property with plenty of room for the six people who stayed there for a week. It is a 0.75 mile walk to the pub and good village shop, otherwise you will need a car to explore. We were disappointed not to find a welcome pack of any sort at the house. In other properties we have stayed in there has been milk in the fridge, tea and coffee available, and maybe cake and biscuits or some other local produce, and on one occasion, sparkling wine, custom coffee mugs and fridge magnets! Here, there was nothing except 4 old looking coffee sachets in a scruffy jar, and 3 dishwasher tablets. There was barely enough washing up liquid to last the week, and none of the waste and recycling bins had been emptied the previous week. There was no paper and card recycling bin available. The collection day changed while we were there, so this needs to be updated in the home manual. This is not a cheap property to rent, and if we had had a long drive to get there, would have been very disappointed to have to go back out just to get something as basic as milk. The above criticism is not to put the property down, it is a stunning place and has been well thought out for holiday letting, and is highly recommended by us, but we feel that it has some customer satisfaction issues to resolve.

  We had a wonderful holiday at Stables Cottage.

  It is the perfect place for a restful break. Jamie and Katya are friendly, kind hosts, constantly helpful - they went out of their way to make us feel at home. The cottage is really beautifully renovated, stylish and cosy, with lots of space and light, as well as very comfortable beds. The kitchen is well-equipped and we enjoyed the nespresso machine. The outdoor seating and dining area is very pretty and secluded and we enjoyed eating outside and admiring the lovely roses. Our two small children loved the owner's paddock, a huge field up the hill from the cottage where they could run around safely with us as it is entirely fenced and securely gated. The views from the paddock are fantastic across the Sussex countryside and we found it a very relaxing place to spend time. The cottage is also near a whole range of great places to visit. We spent several days at the seaside and visited Herstmonceux Castle. We really felt that we had found a gem with this cottage and travelled home with lots of happy memories of a great holiday.

  Cottage was lovely and just as advertised.

  The furnishings were high quality and the refurbishment was done to a high specification. The area was lovely too, but as mentioned previously very close to the main road, though it didn't really bother us much - but obviously thats a personal thing. Did find it hard to find, turning could do with larger signage. Bed was very comfy and everything was spotless. There were a few very minor issues - a woodburner with a few pieces of wood, but no kindling/fire lighters. The kitchen was lovely but surprisingly no where to put food (except a fridge). No additional items that have normally been provided in previous cottages I've stayed in eg tin foil, clingfilm, spare bin bags, etc. Though the welcome pack did have a washing/diswasher tablet, wine and coffee capsules for the machine. The TV signal dropped out alot, it as easier to use the wifi enabled apps - wifi was really good. We will be back, as it was in all a fab holiday - perhaps next time you could organise better weather!! ;)

  We have just returned from a perfect week at Stables Cottage.

  What an absolute gem this charming cottage is! The cottage has just been completely refurbished to the very highest standard, with amazing attention to detail. The kitchen is lovely and really well equipped, the lounge/diner is really homely, the bed is really comfy and the garden is just perfect - we ate outdoors all week! Jamie and Katya are lovely, and so accommodating. In all honesty, we are surprised that this gorgeous cottage doesn't have 5* (or 5tick) rating. There are plenty of fantastic places to visit - we walked around Bewl Water, drove down to Eastbourne via Beachy Head and a short walk to Belle Tout lighthouse, and took a slightly longer (but very worthwhile) trip to Dungeness and New Romney, with a ride on the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway. There are local farm shops to buy fresh produce and quaint high streets in tiny local towns to stroll along. We will definitely be visiting again!

  The cottage and holiday could not have been better.

  The cottage is beautifully and tastefully decorated and very much a 'home from home'. All of the furnishings, fittings and appliances are first class and everything you could possibly need is provided. Jamie was the perfect host; there to meet us on arrival but very respectful of our private space. There was no sense at all of the owner keeping an eye on us, but at the same time he was always available if we needed his advice (he gave excellent guidance on local pubs and restaurants!). We could not recommend Stables Cottage more highly; it is a real gem and perfectly placed to explore the East Sussex and Kent countryside (especially the many excellent National Trust properties in the area).
