The Old Stables in Brough offers a pleasant stay with its great location and modern kitchen. The property has received praise for its spaciousness and underfloor heating, providing a comfortable environment for guests. While some guests have recommended the cottage highly, noting its cleanliness and peaceful village setting, others have reported issues with maintenance and cleanliness that detract from the overall experience.
Several reviews mention problems with cleanliness, including dirty ovens, floors, and garden furniture, as well as cobwebs and leftover food from previous guests. However, some guests found the cottage clean and comfortable.
The location is consistently praised for being good and lovely, with the cottage situated in a peaceful village, convenient for various purposes.
Mixed feedback on comfort, with some guests finding the cottage comfortable and others reporting uncomfortable furniture and beds, as well as issues with underfloor heating controls.
Facilities have been criticised for maintenance issues, including problems with showers, kitchen cupboards, and garden upkeep. Positive remarks were made about the heating system and hot water supply.
There is insufficient information to score thoughtfulness, as only one review mentions a welcome pack, and it is not clear if this is a regular offering. Therefore, while a welcome pack might be appreciated, it is not guaranteed.

Great house, plenty of room. The location worked for us as we were visiting family. As on previous reviews the showers were imposible to use as the water was so hot. Unfortunately there was half eaten food left in the cupboard and fridge. The lack of flexibility on check in was a shame. A reminder from the owner of check in time meant we sat outside an empty house for half an hour.

Great modern kitchen and great heating system with underfloor heating and plenty of hot water. Showers hard to regulate temperature. A very pleasant place to stay and surfed our needs for the weekend.
