Guests say
Guests have consistently praised 'The Stable' for its warm welcome, cosy atmosphere, and excellent location for exploring Gloucester and nearby areas. The large garden is a hit with dog owners, and the property is well-equipped for a relaxing stay. Local dining options are within walking distance, though some guests missed having a nearby pub. The hosts' hospitality, including a home-baked cake, adds a personal touch to the experience.
There is no specific mention of cleanliness in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide an accurate score.
The location is highly praised for being conveniently off the M5, with easy access to Gloucester, Bath, Bristol, and the Cotswolds. Takeaways and dining options are within walking distance, although some pubs were closed.
Reviewers find the accommodation warm, cosy, and ideal for a relaxing stay. The large garden is appreciated by dog owners, and the property is described as having a rustic and country feel.
While guests mention the property is well-equipped, there is not enough detailed information on specific facilities and their maintenance to provide a score.
The hosts are commended for their thoughtfulness, particularly for the warm welcome and a home-baked cake. However, as gifts are not guaranteed, guests should consider this a delightful bonus rather than an expectation.

The Stable is an excellent holiday location just off the M5 which means Gloucester, Bath, Bristol and many other locations are in easy reach. We received a very warm welcome and found the cottage perfect for us. A selection of take-a-ways are a short walk away too.

Really lovely stay here at the Cottage. Very rustic and country feel to it and in the peace and quiet. Lovely big garden for the dog to run in.
