Mrs W
The property was clean and in a great location. It is situated in a quiet area, yet still close enough by car to large supermarkets and the coast. As the weather was great, we made a lot of use of the outside dining space and the enclosed garden was good for our dog. One of the best properties we have visited in terms of close proximity to interesting places, peace and quiet and a comfortable bed!

I enjoyed my stay at The Stables . It was comfortable and well equipped and in a lovely rural setting. Plenty of parking and seating outside and a useful lawn area for the dog to enjoy.
