“We had a lovely stay at The Stables.”

Perfectly sized for our family of four, exceptionally clean with lots of little nice touches such as a box of biscuits and Prosecco on arrival. Cozy, comfortable and tastefully decorated I would highly recommend staying here.

“My partner and I had a wonderful stay.”

The cottage is just as it looks in photos - light, airy, comfortable with great modern amenities. The welcome gifts of prosecco and biscuits were a lovely surprise, and we enjoyed the comfort of the wood burner. We would be happy to return!

- Miss Tsang, November 2019
“Cottage was lovely.”

The wood burner was a real treat.

- Mr Dowsett, November 2019
“The cottage is fabulous, great place.”

Local drive to all areas with great pubs and shops around. Thanks to owner for welcoming gifts

- Mrs Little, November 2019
“Jayne had thought of everything and our stay was a lovely home from home.”

The cottage was well presented and very comfortable. Good location for exploring with easy access. Highly recommended with no complaints whatsoever.

- Mr Amos, October 2019
“If owner could state that there is no gate to the garden on to a fast busy lane that would make dog owners aware.”

I read a review about this problem so took a long rope to tie dog outside.

- Mr Williams, September 2019
“A fantastic cottage.”

Very clean comfortable and peaceful. The owners valued our privacy. Would definitely return.

- Mrs Trust, September 2019
“1st class facilities.”

Every thing that we needed. Can’t thank you enough for such a good week.

- Mr Wenham, July 2019
“The only negative thing about the stables is the cobwebs we had to get down and rolls of fluff under the sofa .”

We appreciated the welcome scones jam and cream and prossecco . After travelling 240 miles we did have a lovely week . Jayne the owner could have said hello living so very close but didn't.

- Mr Genner, July 2019
“The Stables was a lovely place to stay, the owner had thought of everything, and she was very helpful and pleasant on arrival.”

Would love to go back, but the experience would be made a little better if there had been a king size bed and the garden was secure from the main road for the dog,twice or 3 times she ventured onto the main road as no gate or secure fence, luckily the road was closed for maintenance but still a through road for other houses and farm vehicles, would of totally spoilt it for us if that had not been so. Maybe just letting people know that it wasn’t a secure garden would be fine. But otherwise a first class accommodation

- Mr Mcgregor, June 2019
“Really lovely holiday cottage in a great location.”

Extremely comfortable and clean with some lovely welcome gifts including sparkling wine, scones and jam. Milk in the fridge even treats for the dogs,brilliant. Would not hesitate to recommend. The only minus point was the open aspect onto the minor road outside with two dogs. As it happened the road was closed to through traffic due to bridge repairs and our dogs generally don’t wander too far so not too much of a problem for us but a gate to the road would have been perfect.

- Mr Mcgregor, June 2019
“Lovely holiday place, will definitely book the stables again.”

Unfortunately our week was cut short through ill health but the owners were very helpful and supportive.

- Mr Dyson, May 2019
“The cottage was beautiful, well equipped & comfortable - the owners had thought of everything to make our stay home from home.”

It is well situated for sightseeing & shopping in the Cotswolds.

- Miss Jones, April 2019
“We had an amazing time.”

We received some lovely welcome gifts from the owner and were very please with the cottage.The garden center up the road on the way to Gloucester does amazing food and there is a wide variety of plants and gifts. The garden center around the corner from the Stable was great value for money.

- Mrs Buckett, April 2019
“Fantastic family weekend.”

Beautifully furnished cottage in a quiet area, close to lots of touristy places like Slimbridge Wetlands and Cattle Country Adventure Park. Little touches like the jam and scones on arrival really made it special. Highly recommended.

- Mrs Danson-brown, April 2019
“Cottage immaculate.”

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

- Mr Wilkinson, March 2019
“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!

- Mrs Hardie, March 2019
“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,

- Mrs Gregory, November 2018
“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.

- Mr Hickson, September 2018
“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!!

The stables was in a nice and quite location it was very comfortable and very high standard fixtures and fitting nice welcoming pack enjoyed our stay

- Mrs Holden, June 2018
“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 Evans, June 2018
“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.

- Mrs Edwards, June 2018
“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!

- Mrs Webb, May 2018
“The Stables provided fantastic accommodation with every home comfort and was superbly equipped inside and out.”

Location and surrounding area brilliant.

- Mrs Walker, April 2018
“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).

“Stylish and comfortable in a good location.”
