Amazing find.
Amazing find. We were looking for a last minute weekend getaway and came across this lovely cottage.
Carol greeted us with a big smile and gave us all the info we needed. Cottage was warm, extremely clean and had everything we needed.
Malmesbury is just up the road. Abbey Gardens worth a visit. They sell snacks and a decent coffee.
Thank you so much Carol, it was a lovely calm respite from our busy lives. Can highly recommend.

The Old Stables is in a fantastic location on a farm, but only 10 minutes walk across fields to 2 local pubs, a small Co-op and post office. There are lots of walks to do straight from the front door, there is a small south-facing garden to sit in when the sun is shining, the accommodation was very clean, and we had a friendly welcome. There is a bit of noise early in the morning from the woodpigeons and jackdaws, but only to be expected in the countryside. The freezer wasn't working very well on our stay, but it wasn't a major problem for us. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay,

Perfect property for our needs - restful, dog walking break. Lovely quiet location, with many walks on the doorstep.
Carol the owner, very welcoming, lives next door, was there if needed but left us to our own devices. She has thought of all needs and was happy to accommodate our friends to visit at the weekend.
Added bonus was the glorious weather and the family of hedgehogs that visited the garden every evening.
