Old Stable Reviews

Georgina
Came for a girls weekend away, house was amazing! Everyone commented on how fabulous it was. The house was immaculate everything you needed was there, nice touch that there was books and a cupboard full of games. Will definitely book again!
This property is amazing perfect location into anything you might want to sight see in the Lakes but also has everything you could ever need right in the cottage that you dont want to leave. We especially loved that every room had its own bathroom & the open plan living kitchen area which was perfect for hosting. Thanks so much for a great stay & keeping in touch to make sure everything was running smooth!
My nursing friends & I stayed for the weekend, it was absolutely fabulous. Really lovely house, warm & modern with really good facilities. The owner thought of everything, a basket of goodies for us, the fire was on when we arrived & a very well equipped kitchen. Couldn't recommend it enough for people to go & stay & explore the area.
A gorgeous property, immaculately presented, very good communication from owner. It was a perfect stay for 8 of us on our annual Christmas cottage weekend. It was decorated very tastefully for Christmas which was lovely. Would definitely return.
What an absolutely amazing house. We loved our stay and will definitely be booking again. It was so clean and tidy and had everything we needed for a fantastic week away.
I don't know where to begin with this, but this house exceeded all expectations and believe me when I say they were high to begin with. We stayed here over Christmas and it was so nicely decorated that we felt right at home and didn't feel like we were away from home for Christmas. We had everything that we could possibly have needed and Helen checked in with us a day after arrival to check all was ok and that we had everything we needed. Nothing is too far away in the car and it is really quite nice to be set away from the business of everything else. Thank you so much for such a memorable stay!
Dianne
An absolutely beautiful cottage with high spec furniture and fittings. Very comfortable beds and excellent bathrooms. The setting and location was perfect. We had a very enjoyable stay. The lovely owners are on hand to give any help required. We would highly recommend this cottage.
Natalie
We booked this lovely house for a hen party group of 7 girls and it did not disappoint. The house is fabulous, spotless and well equipped. The owners were lovely great communication throughout! We did lots of activities nearby we enjoyed a lovely walk down the beach, a spa day and firework display at the swan hotel and spa, a lovely roast dinner at the famers baycliff and we had a private chef for the Saturday evening real food chefs. It was a great weekend away, would recommend D
We had an amazing 3 days at the property. The house was clean, warm and was decorated to a high standard, even had fresh flowers. Instructions were clear and parking good. Beds were comfy and showers hot and powerful. We used the hot tub everyday and everything outside was clean with a good level of maintenance we highly recommend.
We booked the accommodation to celebrate a special birthday, it was brilliant, the facilities were first class, everything was immaculate and a fully equipped kitchen etc, Helen and Mark couldn't do enough to make sure we had an amazing time.
Wonderful Stay at Old Stable Highly Recommended! We had an incredible stay at Old Stable, just outside Ulverston. The accommodation is modern yet cozy, with high ceilings, exposed beams, and underfloor heating throughout. The bedrooms are all ensuite with smart TVs, and the beds were so comfortable that I slept perfectly every night something I rarely experience away from home! The fully equipped kitchen had everything we needed, and the welcome basket filled with treats was a lovely touch. The private hot tub was perfect for relaxing in the evenings, and the ample parking male things easy for groups. Communication with the owners was excellent, and we couldnt have asked for a better experience. If you're looking for a peaceful, comfortable getaway in the South Lakes, Old Stable is a fantastic choice!
Amanda
What an amazing place to stay! The Stables it outstanding and the reviews were spot on. Fab location not too far from anywhere near but still quiet and surrounded by great countryside. The attention to detail for it being a 'home' is just great. It is extremely spacious and fitted our families needs perfectly. The WiFi was great throughout the house. The house is lovely and warm and we had the fire on but not for heat just because it was beautiful. There is everything you could ever need in the house. Beds are so comfy and everything has that luxurious touch. Plenty of games which we loved and played. Helen and Mark are really lovely and so welcoming. Best welcome pack we have ever had and great to open cupboards and you find salt, pepper etc. There is a hot tub and bbq but we never used them. Definitely have a visit to The Farmers in Baycliff, delicious meal with brilliant staff. Great to have indepth instructions for the appliances etc. We will definitely be back. Honestly one of the best homes we have stayed in!
An amazing stay at the Old Stable for a girls weekend away. What a stunning home, such a beautiful place, built and decorated to the highest standard in a lovely setting. The Old Stable was equipped with literally everything needed and all the little finishing touches such as towels, toiletries, kitchen essentials and a welcome hamper were an added bonus. The old stable is in a fab location, we had a stroll down the road and along the beach to a local pub, The Farmers Baycliff were we had a few drinks and some lovely food then we got a taxi ride back. Lots of fun was had, relaxing in the beautiful home, chilling in the hot tub & catching up with friends. Thank you to Helen and Mark for being such fab hosts also, great communication and being on hand if we needed anything at all. We would definitely recommend and would love to come back again sometime!
Beautiful accommodation with everything you could possibly need with the exception of sun sadly Immaculately clean in all areas. Made full use of the hot tub even in the rain, which was great. The local roads were quiet which made them ideal for cycling, There were 10 of us between the two accommodations on site . Our only comment would be that although the Stable and Cottage are on the same site to get from one to the other you have to walk a short way on the main road. We all had a lovely week and would definitely return.
Rebecca
We just had the most amazing week away staying at The Old Stable. The property was the most beautiful house we have ever seen. Mark and Helen were wonderful, we had a beautiful gift basket on arrival, they could not do enough for us including fitting a stairgate last minute and bringing round a football goal from their own garden for the kids to play with. The house is perfect for families, with plenty of space, enclosed garden and indoor and outdoor games to use. We will 100 be returning!!
Myself and 7 friends stayed for the weekend for my birthday and had the best time ! The location and house itself was beautiful, Helen and Mark were lovely hosts and were very helpful if we needed anything. Absolutely perfect stay, couldnt have asked for anything better, Thank you both!!
Mohamed
Absolutely beautiful property in a fantastic location. Me and my friends were visiting for a weekend break and could not have been happier with the accommodation. Would highly recommend visiting The Old Stable if you are ever visiting Cumbria or the Lake District! Big shout out to Helen and Mark who were very helpful throughout our stay. Excellent communication and responsive. Thank you again!
Stayed at the old stable for a girly weekend away, location was perfect, the house was unbelievable and Helen was so lovely. We received bubbles chilled in the fridge on arrival a welcome basket with so many goodies. The hot tub was amazing and the house was spotless all 8 of the girls were thrilled by the venue will definitely be back thank you Helen & mark xx
Absolutely beautiful home in an amazing area. Would highly recommend and had the most incredible stay. Thank you!
Natalie
A beautiful property, we had a fantastic short stay at the old stable. The owners were there on hand should we have needed anything. We visited with children from 11 months 8 years everything was safe and clean. The house had all little cupboard extras in should you have forgotten anything. We would definitely highly recommend anyone to visit the old stable. Thank you, well hopefully see you in the near future!

Elisabeth
We read the reviews but thought It sounds amazing but probably wont be quite as wonderful as that. We were wrong. It was even better! EVERYTHING was as folk said simply FABULOUS. Wonderfully furnished with such lovely comfy, sink into sofas and with equally comfortable, padded dining chairs you could sit on all morning. The beds, SO very comfortable and the whole house a perfect temperature with the ground source heating and with no nasty drafts. There was a beautiful vase of roses real! and a basket of goodies to greet us on arrival PLUS a bottle of bubbly in the fridge! Mark and Helen the owners are delightful and so helpful. The weather was not too good for our 3 night stay, having timed it perfectly to coincide with a deep depression, but we were very cosy and with games in the drawers and a large screen Smart TV HDMI cable provided plus TVs in every bedroom, all of which worked perfectly. We even tried the hot tub in the strong NW wind and it was bliss. Everything anyone needs to know is in the How to folder which was on the table and we can thoroughly recommend the first pub we tried the Farmers Arms just 1.5 miles away which serves fantastic food at very reasonable prices. We werent there long enough to try any others. Last thing to say is dont do what I did and hunt for a kettle. The kitchen has the very latest in hobs and modern appliances with a massive fridge PLUS the tap on the sink has an amazing device which dispenses boiling water, instantly! If youve never seen one, the instructions are in the folder on the table and, if I can do it, anyone can! We shall be back.
Danyal

Hannah
This is a really great house, excellent facilities, beautifully decorated, well looked after. It's also in a really nice location. I have already recommended it to friends and family and I would definitely go back.
Philip
Wonderful cottage in a beautiful location. Very clean, well furnished and equipped friendly hosts.
Michelle
The property was absolutely stunning the owner had left a beautiful welcome hamper for us . We were a group of 7 ladies celebrating a 30th birthday and the birthday girl was well impressed with her stay , as well as the rest of the group. Highly recomend .
Wow! Needs 6 ticks not 5. The most amazing holiday home we have ever stayed in. The quality, finish and attention to detail by the owners is incredible and so much thought and attention to detail has gone into this property and its renovation. The bedrooms feel like luxury hotels, the furniture and furnishings are high quality and the kitchen has everything you could ever need. Underfloor heating leaves the property toasty at all times. A lovely welcome basket with treats, wine, fizz and fresh roses was a lovely touch. The outdoor space and hot tub is great with a safe enclosed area overlooking fields. A peaceful place but within easy reach of shops, pubs, the beach and beyond. We had an amazing week at The Old Stable, the owners were great and hope to come and stay again.
Such a wonderful stay from start to finish. Cottage owner was so lovely and accommodating checking in making sure we had everything we needed . Could not fault anything and will most certainly choose to stay here again. Xx
Shania
This property exceeded all of our expectations! We had absolutely everything we needed for the stay and more. Little touches were considered, for example ice, straws, additional blankets and games. The private location was great and was only a 10minute drive to local supermarkets. I stayed with a group of 8 to celebrate my 24th Birthday and it was perfect. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating and I will definitely be coming back soon. Thank you for having us!
Cannot fault this property, beautiful house and well maintained. We had everything we needed to enjoy the weekend with no stress and really appreciated the little touches such as the hamper. The property was spotless and had a very warm and cosy feel. Hot tub was great just a note to bring extra towels for hot tub! Private area but was 10 mins away from supermarkets which was handy, 45 min to Windermere, We had a really great time staying here and would love to return at a later date
We chose this property because it was advertised with everything we were looking for 4 generously sized bedrooms, all with ensuites open plan kitchen, dining and living space, meaning we could spend Christmas here and whether you were playing games at the table, cooking in the kitchen, or chilling on the sofa we were all together and with the bonus of the hot tub, which was enjoyed by all. The owners Helen and Mark were very helpful and accommodating allowing us early access to the property and ensuring we had everything we needed for our stay. Cannot recommend this property enough. Would happily stay here again.
Had a lovely stay at the Old Stable , very quiet and relaxed week. Mark gave us a few tips on things to see and do and Pubs to visit which was most welcome. Would highly recommend and we will return.
Siobhan
We had such a lovely stay here. The place was immaculate and had all the facilities and extras you would need for a great trip. It is perfect for a girls weekend away with a really warm large hot tub right by the front door and beautiful rooms with ensuites. We loved it!
Hanzala
Amazing cottage with a beautiful open plan kitchen living area and nice bedrooms. Exactly as shown on the website. One of the best cottages weve booked. The owners were absolutely lovely and helpful also. Will definitely be back.
What a beautiful stable we had the best time, made great memories with our family
What a fantastic property, we were blown away when we arrived. The property has been renovated to the highest specification, and is immaculate throughout. We had 4 adults and 2 children for our trip and there was plenty of space for all of us. There are 4 bedrooms, all ensuite, and all with TV's, which meant we could all go back to our rooms whenever we felt like it. The garden is secure, so we could let the kids play outside without worrying about them escaping, and it also backs onto a a farm field where we could see the sheep running around. The property is equipped with everything you could possibly need, and there are clear instructions on how to use everything. The owners, Helen and Mark were lovely too, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. The location was perfect for us too, close to the zoo, the steam train, and not too far from Windemere. Plenty of shops nearby too. We hope to see you again soon Helen and Mark, we will definitely be staying again.
Deborah
