Confirmed Guest
We recently stayed at The Stables at Mount Farm celebrating a birthday with family, friends and 2 dogs. Everything was great, host and her family all very helpful and welcoming. The cottage was lovely and clean and everything you needed was there. Comfy beds and lots of towels. The bonuses were the hot tub with amazing views and a roof, so could be used in the rain, all the farm animals, and entertainment from the EMUs. There was even nice garden furniture and a bbq. Very safe garden for dogs. Will definitely be back and highly recommend. Thank you

Well-equipped, clean, en-suite for every room. All the basics supplied (soap n shower wash, washing up liquid, dishwasher and washing supplies, Toilet roll, etc etc). Plenty of towels. Comfortable beds. A thoughtful welcome pack too. Lovely back garden, great jacuzzi. Hosts very friendly and allowed us access to the newborn lambs and also puppies. Would heartily recommend.
