“A perfect place in a beautiful rural setting, but within easy reach by car to lots of very beautiful towns and villages (independent shops, clean, no empty shops!”
). We absolutely loved this cottage and will definitely come back, we also loved the whole area. We normally go to the Cotswolds, but chose this cottage because it had everything we needed and felt like a change. Boy were we pleased we did. In short Stable Cottage absolutely perfect, but importantly the surrounding area, towns and villages also fantastic too. Our whole party really enjoyed the break.

The cottage is absolutely wonderful inside with everything we needed. We specifically needed a double bed and walk in shower down stairs, plus anther double bedroom with shower or bath. This was because we were travelling with very elderly parents. The hot tub, which is wood fired was brilliant and as it sits in a very sheltered and secluded area so even though there was a severe rain weather warning during that time and the temp dropped to around 16c it was still absolutely lovely to sit outside and go in the hot tub which we went in for several hours for 3 of our 4 days.
The cottage had a really handy large boot room so all your clutter could happily sit out there. I also like to cook whilst away. The kitchen, although a little small (mainly available counter space), was very well fitted out with absolutely everything you could ever need (even a washing machine!) and the items were all of a high standard (ie no useless knives or can openers etc).
Belinda and Mike were wonderful, lovely and helpful, always around if you needed anything, but not if you didn’t.
Lots of walks from the cottage. We also visited Hereford Castle (needed to be in the summer months I think to get the splendour of the gardens- we went end Sept). Hereford – lovely worth a visit , ate at the Beefy Boys – very nice, Worcester, again lovely. Both towns vibrant, lots of independent shops (including modal shops for the husband) and very clean. We had a truly outstanding meal (tapas) at the Unwind Bar – definitely worth a visit. If you go on a Thursday and spend more than £40 on Tapas, you can get a bottle of wine at 50% off. We went for a red from Puglia at £29 per bottle (£14.50 with the discount) honestly one of the most beautiful reds I have ever tasted. So good we are going to import some in for ourselves.
