This property is absolutely gorgeous.. It was spotlessly clean with good quality fittings, lovely bed linen and numerous ‘treats’ left for us by the owner. There was a vase of beautifully arranged fresh flowers and a generous supply of logs for the burner. There was even a jar of gravy bones for Kensa, our dog. Thanks so much!

Mr Wilkinson

Cottage immaculate.. Equipped with everything you could possibly need. Warm and comfortable.

What a little gem, everything you would want from a holiday cottage.. So close to lots of lovely villages worth visiting. Unfortunately we had no WIFI at all over the six days we stayed but that didn't spoil our break. Didn't want to leave so hope to go back in the near future,

The Stables has very good facilities but due to its location you do need your own transport.. The advertised details state that the main bedroom has a king sized bed, this is incorrect as it is a UK std 4ft 6 inch double, in which case we would not have booked this property in the first place, which would have been a pity as otherwise it meet our needs. It was also disappointing that the owner, who lives next door, did not find time to to visit during our two week stay and help address some minor queries that we had. We did try to meet but had to make telephone contact to ask about towel and bedding change arrangements mid holiday.

The site said there would be WiFi.. That’s one of the reasons we booked this property because of prepping our day trips. First days we had WiFi but this was unstable and for 9 days we had no WiFi at all. We contact Sykes and on their advice the owner. After several contacts and someone to try to fix it it was still not working. We had to multiple 4G bundles... For the rest the property was fine! And of course we had al lovely holiday cause the location gives you so many possibilities for things to do!!

Mrs Evans

Beautiful property with absolutely everything you need for a stay away from home.. Luxury gifts left by the owner were a lovely surprise & gratefully received. Property is in a really lovely area, lots of places to visit, however you definitely need a car to get around. Berkeley Castle & Slimbridge Wetlands Centre are good days out & not far away. We would definitely stay here again.

Mrs Edwards

Thought from brochure there were 2 double bedrooms.. Found the beds in smaller bedroom had been combined into a single bed of at most 2ft 6ins wide so tallish middle aged daughter banged her head on the wall when she turned over. We realised there was no garden but thought from the picture that there were strips of grass in the front. On arrival we realised these were artificial grass. The only near place for the dog to use was grass along the narrow verge of the road outside the cottage gate. Not ideal.

Wonderful, really clean, spacious, high spec, well designed holiday home.. Great attention to detail, everything provided, home from home. We really enjoyed our stay, although no internet for a week which was inconvenient.. However owner aware and tried her best with the provider, even offering her own internet as compensation. But not the best area for wifi if its important to you. Otherwise faultless!

Stylish and comfortable in a good location..

The cottage was clean, spacious with lovely furnishings; it has all the facilities you could need.. In fact the owners have thought of most things. There were some nice touches too such as prosecco, chocolate Easter bunnies and hot cross buns left for us as well as essentials like milk and coffee. The cottage was perfect for a couple plus dog and a 15 months old (the highchair was appreciated too). Only two suggestions for improvement, heavier curtains in the bedrooms to help block out the light and unfortunately the broadband was very patchy which stopped us watching films in the evening (down to the provider I would say).
