This was our second stay in the Stables at the Oaks. Such a lovely back to nature setting. Very clean, relaxing and Comfortable. Very warm too with the log burner. The hosts Ian and Colin do a great job to ensure their guests have everything they need which is lovely. We loved it along with our two girls plus Milo our dog. We'll be back. 😁
