About this cottage rental

The Old Stables is a stone built cottage created from a stable block dating from the 1840’s . A three bedroom cottage (two king and one twin-bed)with a fully equipped kitchen opening onto a dining room. There is a separate living room with TV/DVD and two large leather couches .The living room opens onto the courtyard with large glass bi-fold doors. The Old Stables can accommodate 6 people. It is located in the beautiful Georgian village of Freshford which lies at the junction of the Frome and Avon valleys in the southern Cotswolds. Just 5 miles from Bath and 2 miles from the historic town of Bradford on Avon. Freshford has a very good pub (The Inn at Freshford)serving great food and local beer and ciders a few minutes walk from the cottage. .There is also a well stocked village community shop and café.
There are some wonderful walks along the Avon and Frome rivers and the Kennet and Avon canal leading to riverside Inns and areas of local interest (Iford Manor).
All just 15 minutes from Bath by car but the secret of this location is the 9 minute train journey to Bath from the village station, just a short stroll from the cottage. Services run every 30 mins at peak times and hourly thereafter..

The property was lovely, clean, well stocked, and perfectly positioned for the 10 minute train-ride into Bath.Robin and Wendy were very communicative, gave lots of information about the area and good directions.Would happily stay here again.

The Stables was the perfect place for family to visit Bath. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The kitchen spotless with everything we needed for breakfast, drinks, snacks and meals. The hosts have made this a charming bolthole within walking distance the a great pub, and a train ride to Bath that takes only a few minutes. We will be back!

The property was spotless. The welcome card and breakfast food was a special touch. We were a party of 4 adults and 2 children. There is no garden but for us this was not an issue. We may never get back to the UK but I would not hesitate to book this property again.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jan 2023
Our stay at the property over New Year was made enjoyable by the ease of the booking and ease of communication with the owners who provided a much appreciated welcome basket. The property is very well furnished and utensils are abundant, making our stay feel like a home away from home. Thank you. Jenny and Kevin
