We had a fabulously relaxing holiday in Stables Cottage. We loved being somewhere so beautifully quiet and away from it all and particularly enjoyed seeing all the animals especially goats Jack and Thelma. The accommodation was first class and the thoughtful welcome pack of goodies much appreciated. We would highly recommend.
Lovely in all respects. Would go again.
Stables Cottage is a very well equipped cottage in a lovely peaceful setting. We were welcomed with a beautiful hamper and had pre booked a homemade meal for our first evening which was waiting in the fridge for us on arrival. Nothing was too much trouble and we had a really special 3 night family get together
Wonderful house with everything we needed and more - especially all the beautiful farm animals perfect retreat and marvellous hamper! Comfy clean and suited the six of us expertly. We will be back please
Good facilities and quality of furnishings. One room backs onto the next accommodation and noise travels freely between the two. Farm animals are a bonus and we bought food from the farm which was very tasty.
Everything perfect! Would have appreciated a casserole dish is only minor niggle. Great quality, location and comfort.
We had booked the Hayloft with Vanessa & Rupert and loved the farm so much that we booked Stables Cottage for the whole family. The whole place is wonderful, excellent comfy accommodation (all rooms en-suite) plenty of space and we could say hello to the animals every day and walk in the beautiful woodland. We highly recommend Stables Cottage for all ages and needs. We all have long term health conditions so the combination of easy ground floor accommodation and short distances to the woodland/Leicester l/local shops was perfect!
A fabulous find, beautiful accommodation in a really peaceful spot. Lovely surroundings. My daughter and her friend enjoyed the farm yard animals. Welcome hamper has to be the best we’ve experienced. James was a great host. Would definitely return and recommend.
Beautiful cottage in a beautiful location. The children loved having the animals so close too. The host was extremely friendly and welcoming
Beautiful location. Excellently equipped. Very clean. Comfortable and relaxing.
The Stables was beautifully laid out, everything you needed in the kitchen and the bathrooms were fitted to a very high standard. There was 4 of us on this trip - I think the dining room table might have been a bit cramped with 6. The location is just perfect for meeting with friends based North and South with the farm animals being a bit of a bonus.
Ideal holiday accommodation for our requirements. Dog-friendly, on-site walks and 30 mins drive from home. Spacious accommodation, comfy beds and good WiFi. Friendly hosts and would happily recommend to others. Lovely countryside location.
Beautiful cottage in a lovely setting. Really well appointed and equipped. Sausages and bacon were a real treat. Had a lovely long weekend.
Everything was perfect ,including the weather.

As all restrictions have been lifted across the United Kingdom, you are no longer legally required to self-isolate upon a positive Covid-19 result. You won’t be asked to take daily tests or isolate following contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19. This means, if you would like to modify or cancel your booking due to Covid-19, our normal terms and conditions now apply.
If the restrictions are reintroduced and you are forced to cancel your holiday due to legal restrictions, please be rest assured that we will help you to move your booking within the same property, offer a voucher to be used within the same property within a year or cancel your booking in this instance and we will refund you the price you paid in full.
If you are concerned about the potential impact of Covid-19 on your holiday plans, outside of legal restrictions, we strongly advise you to seek out travel insurance which covers you in these and other eventualities.
