The stables is an excellent property. Very comfortable and well equipped. We loved the garden and the space inside the property. There's plenty of room for four people.. The owner is lovely and we sad to go home. We use cottages.com regularly and this is now our favourite property. Favourite visit was to the wildlife gardens. Fantastic!
