Beautiful stay in a rural idyll
The Stables is a fabulous play to stay, nestled in the heart of the Chilterns, with Red Kites circling in the valley.
Well equipped and comfortable, it is a great base to walk from and a short drive to Henley/Wallingford with great pubs nearby too.

Walking the Ridgeway
A comfortable quirky cottage in a converted stable. It has everything you could need and the owners are friendly and helpful. The free roaming geese and duck plus their eggs were a bonus. There are ducklings on their way and we were sorry to miss their hatching.

The cottage was just perfect for a do nothing weekend. We have an elderly dog who loved the spacious garden and meadow. The cottage was just right and the hearth was a welcome addition to be lit in the evening. Location and local pubs and places to eat were excellent. Thank you so much Jenny, we’ll be back!

Points forts : Propreté, emplacement
Points faibles : Communication
Characterful cottage in fair condition, kitchen a little tired. For us the issue was the shared driveway, the close proximity of the owners house, the provision of only a single key, and too frequent interactions initiated the owners (for example, on one occasion they interrupted a work call by repeatedly knocking on the door until I answered). All of that meant we did not feel it was our own space and we were not able to relax. The EV charger has a tendency to trip out now and then, I was repremanded by the owner for resetring it; we were glad to be leaving the day after that interaction.

I am sorry that you had such a miserable stay with us. We have never had such a bad review in 20 years. We cannot deny the shared drive or proximity to our house but it is all described in our listing. We have always been sensitive to our guests privacy and keep in the background unless our visitors wish to chat. I don’t recollect frequent unwanted interactions. The issue with the EV charger was an exceptional situation as it had only been recently installed.
I hope your building work has now been successfully completed
