We had a great week at Stable End. We received clear instructions for our arrival at the accommodation. Everything was clean and well maintained, and the welcome pack was good. The sofas and the beds were remarkably comfortable and the whole place was warm and cosy - despite being huge. We could not believe the amount of crockery, cutlery and utensils. It’s in a super location, near to - but not impacted by - a main road, making days out easy. There is so much to do in the area that I am sure we will return.

Our group of 6 adults found stable end to be one of the best holiday lets that we have stayed in. It is very spcious and the living room with the log burner is extremely comfortable. We do a lot of cooking and the standard of kitchen equipment was excellent. The beds were comfortable and showers good. Jim and Beth were great hosts. Whitchurch is a lovely old town and Shrewsbury is a great place to visit. We thought stable end was excellent value for money and would recommend it to others.
