    Loved it, the location was ideal for me - some lovely walks with my dog from right out the front gate (I have the OS maps app), quiet rural location, peaceful and had everything that I needed. Clean and nicely decorated. Hosts said hi and checked...

    Exactly as described and perfect for our stay for what we needed. James was lovely and made an effort to check on us and make sure we were ok and had everything we needed. The downstairs bed could do with a thicker mattress but other than that...

    James and his family are all so lovely and helpful. Our car broke down and it was really stressful but James and Amy helped us the best they could and let us check out later so that we could wait for the recovery crew to pick us up. The room was...

James
"The Stables" at Brecks cottage are two self contained , self catering maisonettes. Set in beautiful open countryside, with walks, bike rides, country pubs and historical places of interest on the doorstep. The stables can sleep 4 in one double bed on the mezzanine and one sofa bed on the ground floor. The mezzanine level is accessed by ladders. Those with limited mobility will struggle to access the floor. The annex is compact. If you are wanting space, this is not for you. There is enough space to relax, sleep and eat but not much more. The pictures are a true reflection of the size of the annex. We have provided a table, microwave, kettle and fridge with basic cutlery. The property does not have a full kitchen. There are plenty of local pubs serving food. Parking is on the driveway or at the front of the property on the lane. We welcome guests with pets. We do ask that you request to bring along pets prior to booking. The annex is small and not suitable for all animals and all sizes. Where ever possible we do ask that guests who have pets, bring their own bedding and towels. We do not charge extra for pets for this reason. We appreciate this is not always possible so please do talk to us if this is the case.
We are a family of five. Three children aged 14, 3 and 1. We enjoy hosting guests and look forward to meeting you. We are always happy to talk about activities, attractions and good places to eat in the area.
Very rural. A car is essential.
