  • "The Stables is a modern luxurious comfortable property that is newly built to a high standard."

    It has quality fixtures and fittings plus a much appreciated welcome pack, travel toiletries packs, and an extremely well stocked kitchen. The accommodation is accessible downstairs with a level entrance, wide corridors and for us, the all important downstairs WC. The level accessible shower in the en-suite upstairs plus a bath in the bathroom ticked all our boxes too. I loved the location-it’s on a working farm which is charming and seeing the horses and cows before we left was a bonus-thank you Louise. It worked well for us being near the motorway, close to family in the area, not far from the beaches while having supermarkets nearby as well. But even though everything was on the doorstep, it was so rural and tranquil that we really felt we’d got away from it all too. We hope to return soon.

    We are really glad you had a good time and look forward to welcoming you back soon Louise Property Owner

  • "It was a lovely surprise to find a downstairs loo in the property which wasn't listed in the description."

    My elderly dad really needs one to save him going upstairs all the time, and this very nearly put me off booking this property but as it was only 2 nights I decided to go for it anyway, so this was a major bonus! The property was so clean and well equipped, we had a really enjoyable stay there.

    Many thanks for you feedback we appreciate the comments you have made and we endeavour to get the description altered and hope to see you again in the future Louise Property Owner

    Great location - easy access to motorway but quiet and private house. Fun to be on a working farm and seeing/hearing all the animals! House was beautiful, clean and had everything we needed.

  • "A beautiful place to stay, much bigger than the photos depict."

    Everything you need, and in a location that's easy to explore the area. Within walking and driving distance of local pubs and in an area where you can do some lovely walks. Within easy reach of Cheddar, Wells, Burnham on Sea and a little further afield will get you to Weston-Super-Mare and Minehead which all have beautiful beaches. Hosts were lovely and very helpful. Thank you
