The Stables

Perfect size. Had everything we needed. Comfortable and clean. Lovely little garden. Views and tranquility very relaxing.

Nothing that I can think of.

Phil and Amanda had thought of everything you might need. Even a toothbrush and phone charger, dog bowls, towel and poo bags. There was a lovely welcome pack including fresh eggs from their hens. No need to worry about breakfast as all catered for. Lovely position with walks to do straight from the property.

Nothing not to like

It was all good.

We loved it all - spacious, clean, cosy, well resourced, comfortable, the list goes on! Excellent communication from the owners, Amanda and Phil. The log burner had been prepared so that when we arrived late evening, it was a breeze to get a roaring fire going. There was a fabulous welcome box with fresh eggs, bread, fruit, homemade preserves (the lemon curd was amaaaazing!) and a pint of milk. The cupboards had a huge variety of pots, pans, cutlery, utensils and crockery, as well as condiments, seasonings and essentials such as tea/coffee/sugar...and cocoa too! There were also a variety of cleaning products in the utility room, as well as cloths, sponges and washing up liquid in the kitchen. The bedroom (which was downstairs leading directly to the enclosed garden) was lovely, with large, comfortable bed and ensuite with sink and loo as well....and a charger for electric toothbrushes! The main bathroom upstairs was huge - shower was great - and there were towels, flannels and toiletries in both rooms. Board games and books were available to use in The Stables, and there was a separate gym above the garage, with also dartboard and massage table (we didn't use this area). Parking just outside the property was easy, and this area also had spare firewood for the log burner if you ran out. The Stables is ideal for a relaxing stay - we were there on a rainy, chilly November weekend and had the best time, so imagine that it would be perhaps even better in the spring and summer months. It is also a dog-friendly property - after soggy walks in the Peak District, we put the dog beds in the area by the front door to allow them to rest and dry out! Highly, highly recommended...we will definitely visit again the next time we are in the area! (The photos we took do not even begin to capture how lovely the place was...).

Cannot think of anything!

Wonderful cottage, just what we were after, peace & tranquility. Loved seeing the geese + chickens each morning. Fabulous welcome hamper, we will definitely be back again

Quiet, clean, had everything I needed.
