Lovely Holiday Cottage

A Victorian Brick and Flint Stable Block converted into a two bedroom luxury holiday cottage in the heart of the Meon Valley and within the South Downs National Park. The Stables have been sympathetically converted and retain the high ceiling and wooden beams in the main living area. PLEASE NOTE WHEN WORKING OUT RATES - A 2 NIGHT STAY IS 50% of weekly rate - 3 N 60% -4N 70% . If the rates for two nights do not work out at this , please do get in touch and I will edit the rate. Always worth getting in touch re prices - the new way prices are worked out on VRBO make it tricky to get the 3 and 4 night breaks at the correct price - so don't be put off - get in touch :) Please note we do only allow one dog - no cats!

DELIGHTFUL!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The cottage is spacious and very well appointed. The hosts live on the property (it's a working farm) and Victoria was extremely friendly and helpful. We highly recommend this property.

Peaceful country cottage

The Stables proved a homely, relaxing country experience within a beautiful setting. The village is only minutes walk away and is a true piece or rural Britain where people stop and say hello, talk in the general store and where time seems to stand still. The host, Victoria, baked delicious gluten free brownies and provided a lovely starter kit for our stay. Communication was A1 and we were made most welcome, a thoroughly enjoyable stay.

A Wonderful Place

Thanks to Victoria for being such a wonderful hostess. The brownies, farm fresh eggs and butter were a real treat. The kids and I enjoyed meeting the lovely horses and foal as well. Our only regret was that we didn’t stay longer. We hope to come again soon. All the best, from Canada.

Lovely farm cottage in West Meon

A lovely 2 bedroomed cottage on a farm/beside farm buildings. The property was just 1 mile from West Meon … within walking distance, with a pavement most of the way. The kitchen was well equipped - and also had a dishwasher and washing machine. Comms with Victoria were excellent and finding the property was straight forward. Overall - it is a great location if you want to walk the Meon Valley trail

Perfect weekend away

We loved the property! We were a group of 5 girls just looking for a relaxing break and the house was perfect, the pictures didnt do it justice. Enough room in the open plan downstairs to eat and sit comfortably and the bathroom has a larger shower than is in the picture. The brownies were amazing, a lovely touch. We went to the beach as it is about 45 mins to west wittering and then had dinner at the pub which is a 15 min walk away which I would recommend. Great host and we hope to be back in the future

A most enjoyable weekend stay and great hosts.

Location chosen due to a wedding venue. Location beautiful and accommodation very satisfying. On arrival Friday we had a problem with the car which could not be fixed until the Sunday. Victoria went out of her way to take us to the wedding venue on the Saturday and pick us up later in the evening. This was more than expected. A most enjoyable weekend and great hosts. We will certainly book the accommodation again if the need arises to go back to the location.

Amazing stay at a fabulous cottage

Booked a last-minute break for 3 nights over half term with our 7-year-old and Border Collie. The cottage was extremely clean, warm and the beds very comfortable. Our little one loved the little ‘reading corner’ upstairs and we liked the open plan downstairs space so we were always in the same place together. It is equipped with everything you could possibly need, and we arrived to milk, bread, butter, jam, marmalade, wine and freshly baked Chocolate Brownie which was a lovely surprise. Great communication from Victoria she even let us check in slightly earlier and depart later, it was nice to have her drop in and check everything was ok. Despite being on a working farm it was so peaceful, and we only heard the occasional farm traffic passing by. We followed two of the circular walks from the book left in the cottage and liked that we didn’t need to drive anywhere (and that both walks ended near a pub 😊 ). Nice small village shop great for picking up a few treats / essentials. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will return. Thanks Victoria – See you again!
