We had a lovely stay at the old stables and would highly recommend it to anyone. The location is perfect and you can walk into cley next the sea from the cottage. If we were asked if any improvements could be made, it would only be, that the single bed could benefit from a new more comfortable mattress. We would still give it a five star***** review and have just booked to return again next year.

Our second time in this property. Perfect for a long weekend away for walks with our dog and a lovely enclosed garden so no worries of dogs escaping! Plenty of mugs, plates, cutlery and kitchen utensils you could possibly need and very cosy in the evening with a fire lit.
