What We Offer at The Stables

At The Stables, we believe that a truly memorable holiday combines comfort, nature, and a genuine personal touch. As a family-run business, everything we offer has been carefully considered to give you a peaceful, private, and eco-conscious escape — without compromising on the luxuries that make a stay feel special.

Being family run, we believe everyone deserves a fair, relaxing getaway. That’s why we’re proud to be dog friendly, family friendly, eco friendly — and free from half-term price hikes.

When you book with us, you deal directly with our family — no third-party platforms, no impersonal systems, just real conversations and tailored service from people who care
