The Stables were very comfortable, well furnished and fully equipped with everything we needed. The layout was good with enough room for a wheelchair and accessible toilet, sink and showers.
Outside there was a lovely patio area looking out over fields with table and chairs. And plenty of off road parking.
Clearly a lot of thought has gone into making guest's feel relaxed, comfortable and well catered for.
We will be going back.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Old Stables. It is really comfortable, clean, warm and beautifully decorated to a high standard. The kitchen is super well-equipped which really makes a difference when cooking meals in the evening. It's a great place to come back to and relax after a day exploring Rutland towns, villages and countryside. The welcome pack is a really nice touch too and I highly recommend ordering the eggs and local beef from the farm. I'm sure we'll be back at some point!




Very comfortable and well-equipped accommodation, set in a beautiful location.

The Stables is very comfortable and very well-equipped accommodation, set in a beautiful location. When you look out of any window, you see nature: trees, fields and flowers, and hear birdsong. A very restful stay, with hosts who care about their accommodation and your stay. Being able to enjoy a real fire in the log burner and making a smooth coffee with the espresso machine are two of the many highlights in this peaceful space.

The Old Stables is a beautifully presented cottage with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. Sarah was so very helpful ahead of our stay and nothing was too much trouble. The cottage is set in a lovely rural location and was perfect for our family stay to celebrate my husband’s birthday and the welcome pack was lovely too with delicious bread. The cottage was immaculate with very comfy beds too. Our two Schnauzers were also made very welcome with some tasty treats just for them.
If you want to eat or get delivery from Sarpech Indian, then book early especially for a Saturday. We had a lovely Chinese/Thai meal from Choi’s in Uppingham. Very well located for Rutland Water and visits to Oakham. We will definitely book again.




Beautifully renovated barn to the highest standard. Comfortable and conveniently positioned

Although we have no disabilities it was interesting to see how it could accommodate wheelchairs etc.
Everything was to the highest standards and the beds and sofas very comfortable
We would stay again.

We had a great time staying at the property. The communication prior to the visit was excellent and accommodating. The condition of the house felt like new. Nicely accommodated our family member with mobility issues and the dog had a nice outdoor area. I highly recommend.

I’m always looking for cottages that are disabled and dog friendly and this was perfect. Everything to suit my elderly parents, and mother is not easy to please! The walk into Uppingham was easy, although no pavement between the cottage and the first roundabout, but the road wasn’t too busy. Lovely town which provided all our needs. We enjoyed Rutland water and other local towns and relied on eating out or takeaways, although the kitchen is well equipped if you prefer to cook.
Communication was excellent, slight issue with a broken toilet which was fixed immediately, good to know the friendly and helpful owners were available when needed.
Slightly disappointed that the small garden wasn’t dog proof, but we were advised of this so I can’t complain. A bigger well trained dog may be ok, but too many small gaps in the fence for our little hunters!
I have never stayed in the same place twice because I like to visit different areas of the country, but if the old folk wanted to come again I would be more than happy to return.




Fantastic cottage - a lot of thought given so perfect for anyone to enjoy

We’ve loved our week here - thank you so much. Perfect accommodation, extremely comfortable with flexible options to suit both our wheelchair and rollator users. The owners are friendly and very keen to ensure your stay is a success. Furniture is very comfortable. Gorgeous views and we were visited by the farm’s cows and calves plus a bull! The village is picture postcard with a church tucked away along a grassy path. Highly recommended!

This property was perfect for our long weekend. We booked late and luckily we found The Stables by accident. We would have difficulty finding a better property for our family and dog. Although this time it was just the two of us, we would love to go back with the other members of our family. It is spacious and very well finished. I would recommend the property, the owner who checked we were happy and the location. We had a surprise welcome pack which we really appreciated. Uppingham is a lovely place to visit, we have been before and now we have found this property we will be back again.

The property was excellently maintained and equipped in a scenic location, very quiet and peaceful yet a stones throw from main routes allowing easy access to Rutland Water, Oakham and Uppingham, and many picturesque villages. We would have no hesitation in recommending a stay to others. We also enjoyed our visits from the cattle!! We hope to visit again in the future.



Excellent!

We stayed for 2 nights whilst in the area for a series of meetings rather than booking in to a faceless hotel.
The property has been extremely well renovated using high quality materials and fittings. It was very comfortable and Sarah was very kind and helpful - thank you.
