  Had a lovely bank holiday weekend stay with my family of 10 at the Old Stables.

  ( 6 adults & 4 Children) The conservatory has wonderful views and the property was warm and welcoming. 3 beautifully appointed upstairs bedrooms all with en-suit bathrooms . The ground floor didn't quite work for us as there is a room with bunk beds and a pull out sofa in the lounge. As some of the children were young they needed/wanted to be closer to their parents so we had adults using the sofa bed and bunks. That said, there were 10 of us and feel it would be perfect for 3 couples upstairs and older children on the ground floor. The Kitchen was very well equipped with everything and I mean everything you could think of... it has a 'shared' laundry room and other than not finding a broom , has everything available to use. I think my only negative was, there is a separate attached East Wing. This became occupied on our second day. There are no boundaries set and it was a little uncomfortable when the people there entered through the shared laundry room and sat on the garden chairs directly outside the stables. Looks like we are sharing a garden, they said !.........I couldn't say either way as I didn't know either. The pool house is warm and the water is too, great for young children . There are towels to use and although a little dated, was a great hit with the children. To get to the pool house, you need to go out through the garden and this needs better signage or even ' a sign' Overall, a lovely place to stay but maybe needs an easier booking system of pool sessions and some clarity of the grounds use with others!...

  The Old Stables is a lovely barn conversion with stunning views.

  It is comfortable and well equipped. But there are some issues that need sorting out. First and foremost is gaining entry on arrival. We were given a four digit code to access the key safe for entry to the property. There is no key safe, so we had to text the owners. (They have impaired hearing so voice calling is out of the question.) Fortunately they live close by and a lady came and let us in. Thankfully it wasn't raining while we were waiting. There are several windows with broken latches. A shower cubicle with a light that doesn't work. A heated towel rail that leaked water. The patio doors leading from the conservatory are very difficult to lock from the inside, we could only manage it from the outside then re enter the property through the kitchen patio door. These issues didn't spoil our stay but they need sorting out especially as this is a very expensive place to stay. Don't be put off from booking this property, the swimming pool is a real bonus and there are beautiful walks on your doorstep.

  Few points: - property managers were nice people.

  - the heating was not able to be controlled by us and was subject to requesting heating is turned on. Which in a single glazing property this time of year was a bit rubbish. - there was numerous old duvet and pillows stashed around the property. These were old and stained. Not appealing. The actual duvet and pillows on the bed were not in great condition after we stripped the cases from them. - washing machine was full of stagnant water. Property had not been checked prior to our arrival. - no Hoover was provided so we couldn’t easily pick up mud from when returning from walking. - the property had numerous stained carpet and also on the sofa/chairs upon our arrival along with the carpet. Didn’t even appear as though cleaned. - WiFi was poor. - tv was an old model and wasn’t great. - fold down bed was stuck in the dining room. - actual look of the building and location was lovely however the above marred our stay.

  I have stayed in many holiday homes over the years but none as well-equipped as this one, it was a real bonus.

  The house is beautiful, spacious and comfortable and suited all ages including the children. Everyone loved the pool! The view from the garden room is stunning and the nearby walks (especially over to the viaduct and its nearby pubs) were great. Visits to nearby Bristol, Bath, Weston-super-Mare and Cheddar Gorge made it an ideal location. If I had just the tiniest niggle it would be to have more comfortable sofas in the lounge but really, we loved our stay there and would recommend it to anyone.

  An absolutely lovely dog friendly property in a beautiful location.

  Perfect for what we needed, nicely decorated and lovely gardens surrounding it. A tad chilly sometimes as we couldn’t adjust the heating although we used the fire and we found it tricky to work the oven, maybe some instructions? Despite this we would definitely return.
