About this property
Perched just outside of the quiet village of Trent in Hummer is this gorgeous detached cottage, surrounded by peaceful farmland and expansive gardens. Situated on a working farm, The Stable House offers a rural escape for a group of family or friends looking to explore the countryside. Kick off your muddy boots in the entrance hall before heading inside this characterful abode for a relaxing evening, where a woodburning stove takes centre stage in the snug sitting room as you enjoy a family film night. Continuing to impress is the open-plan living space, a sociable space to gather with your loved ones as you prepare meals for the group in the amply-equipped kitchen, gather around the dining table for a special dinner party, or hop on the sofa and watch some TV as you keep the chef company. Alternatively, take your dining experience outdoors and dine alfresco in your own private courtyard as your furry friends run free around the lawn. Also on the ground floor is a handy utility room and a fabulous shower room for your convenience. Drift off to memories of your fun-filled day in one of four inviting bedrooms upstairs, comprising three doubles and a twin, boasting ample storage, and views to the surrounding countryside, offering a flexible sleeping arrangement for all types of groups.

Was greeted by Sarah and was made to feel very welcome straight away. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants a lovely holiday. The house it self was absolutely lovely and equipped with everything you could ever need for a lovely holiday. Definitely a 10 out 10

The new kitchen area is fabulous and the old lounge is cosy with the added bonus of the pool/football tables. The hot tub and garden are a delight, shame weather wasnât better to enjoy both more. I would worry about the deep stone steps for young children or older people though to get to and from the house but ok for us. We had a lovely time. The little extras on our arrival were an added bonus, thank you Sarah.
