The Stables was clean and well equipped.The lounge furniture was very comfortable, the Stressless recliners were extremely comfortable, to the extent that we have been considering purchasing some for ourselves.There are lots of places to visit with 15 - 30 minutes drive. If you're a walker (I am not) there are numerous walks from the doorstep.There is no view from inside the property, as it is blocked by the main house, but once on the driveway the view is very nice.The owners are friendly whilst not being in any way intrusive.A very nice place to stay and we would stay again. A lovely part of the country.
