Easy accommodation in a great location with a welcoming host many thanks.
Very comfortable accommodation. Fran is an excellent host providing very tasty cake and a fruit bowl as extras. Gave good advice about things to do and see.
Loverly cosy place, clean and tidy accommodation and surroundings, very helpful owner who is very explanatory about the local area, would definitely book there again
I received a warm welcome and the room was clean and spacious. There was fresh milk and fresh fruit available in the mini-fridge, which was thoughtful; also, delicious home made chocolate cake! This suited me perfectly for a one-night stopover on my travels.
This is a lovely little getaway place for solo travelers or couples. very cozy with the fire and basic coffee/tea facilities.
The hosts were amazing and very friendly with great knowledge of the area to help find things to do and places to eat.
We really enjoyed our stay at the stables. Lovely cosy accommodation with a beautiful garden to sit in and enjoy the surrounding countryside. Our host couldn’t have been more friendly and welcoming. Would definitely recommend.
We stayed for a wedding- even though the check in fell at a difficult time for the wedding (at the Old Cow Shed) Fran went out of her way to help us get the key, and then gave us a lift to the venue.
Room was warm and comfortable with tea, coffee and fresh fruit. Fran also facilitated a late checkout. Couldn’t ask for anything more, and significantly better than the alternative of the travelodge!
What a lovely find! Stayed here for one night when visiting the Stag & Hounds, but could happily have stayed longer. Lovely location, great facilities and lovely touches with home made cakes on arrival and a fridge with proper milk and bottled water. Fran was very welcoming and helpful, and lots of information in the room about the local area and places to go/eat etc.
very quiet, good nights sleep, not much in the way of options for eating out, went to the next village along to the Stilton and Cheese which was quite nice
