    The only thing I would suggest is to provide a hairdryer. I had started our trip with my own hairdryer only to have it burn up on our first day. I was reluctant to buy one in Europe due to having a European plug which wouldn't have made sense we live in the US. But honestly, I was able to manage through it.

    Enjoyed our very lovely stay at The Stable. I was impressed to find that they have been hosting since 2001 and their professionalism and quality were superb. The host was available for any questions. Extremely organized messages to help utilize home appliances. My husband and I are retired firefighters and we were both impressed with the attention to fire safety with smoke detectors and fire extinguishers along with a message to close the kitchen door during sleep that would help minimize the spread of a potential fire. Plenty of extra linens, a comfy bed, and perfect pillows. I completely felt like I went back in time and was visiting Grandma again with homemade bread and sweet cake for midnight snacking or morning breakfast. I love, love, loved my stay, and would return in a heartbeat. Figured out bus routes and train departures and we got around like pros. Location was perfect for visiting Salisbury, Winchester, Southampton, and the airport. Thank you for such a wonderful visit.

    The Stable was a wonderful place to stay - as the name suggests, a converted stable of the original cottage. It had everything we could have wanted and our hosts provided a great welcome pack and every little extra that we may have needed. For us as a couple, it was a great size, with safe and secure parking and access. There were excellent instructions throughout the property and a very useful information pack. Access to the roads and surrounding area was easy. We walked up to one of the local pubs one evening for a couple of drinks and some wonderful food. There was nothing to fault in our experience.

    A lovely welcome pack with home made bread, lemon drizzle cake, milk, butter etc. was a lovely touch. The owners Mike and Hilary were very welcoming, the accommodation was spotlessly clean and well equipped. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to stay in the area.

    A lovely and slightly quirky property that has everything you need for a comfortable break

    We happened to stay during a cold snap with frost every morning, so it's probably not a regular issue, but the property didn't really get very warm for the duration of our stay. The instructions to adjust the heating were useful and clear, but even with the heating on constantly it was slow to warm up. The radiators seemed small, and condensation on the bedroom ceiling suggeted it isn't very well insulated. It was quite dusty, especially under the bed.

    We had a lovely stay. Well equipped and in a private setting, the property had everything we needed for a short break, or longer if desired. There was a lot of useful information about the property and surrounding area. The bed was really comfortable! The hosts Mike and Hilary were really friendly and helpful without being intrusive, and the welcome pack was lovely.
