    “We had a wonderful 5 day break at Stable Cottage.”

    We were greeted by the owner, Jane, who welcomed us and was available, in the adjacent farmhouse, throughout our stay. The cottage was clean, comfortable and well equipped. We appreciated the two terraces for al fresco drinks, and the surroundings were beautiful and tranquil. We were sorry to leave!
