About The Stables

‘The Stables’ is a large, single storey detached cottage with its own private garden, situated on the farm, in the heart of rural South Hams, with beaches just 7 minutes’ drive away. There are footpaths that run directly from the property into the surrounding countryside and for the keen walkers, it's possible to walk all the way to the beach. There are the most fabulous, far-reaching views from the garden and fields with distant views of the sea and rolling countryside. There is private parking right outside the door and with no steps to navigate, this cottage is perfect for those with limited mobility as well as couples, or friends, that seek a retreat in the middle of the countryside, on a quiet farm.

There is so much wildlife around and beautiful dark skies for late night star gazing or keen photographers.

Accommodation

This modern and very spacious cottage covers 580 sq. ft and is all on one floor, making it perfect for those with limited mobility. With tasteful decoration and good attention to detail, the cottage is fabulously well equipped with a modern kitchen and a modern shower room with heated floor.

The extremely large bedroom boasts a double and single bed so a stay in The Stables is equally suited to friends, as much as it is couples. All towels and Egyptian cotton linen are provided, and our beds are extremely comfortable. Please note, however, that you will need to bring beach towels with you.

The open plan living area is large and bright and has oodles of space for those who like to spread out.
‍
Overall, the cottage is very comfortably furnished and there are DVDs, books and games for cosy nights in. Information, guidebooks and maps are provided to help you plan your stay. There is efficient electric heating for chilly nights.

Don't take our word for it! Have a look at what our previous guests say about their stay at Higher Stancombe Farm.

Lovely place to stay

Laura was very welcoming and happy to help in anyway. Lovely walks and views around the area and a nice location not far from places if you wanted to go on day trips.

Melissa

Beautiful place and outstanding views

Such a cosy atmosphere as well. Laura communicated excellently. We felt very comfortable there. A*!

Christopher

Lovely and peaceful accommodation

Perfect for us and our dogs. More space than what the pictures suggest. We can highly recommend the Bear and Blacksmith pub which is 5 minutes away although pre booking is likely to be required.

Emily

What is there not to like about this little gem

Biscuits on the table, milk in the fridge, comfy sofas, huge space, fully equipped kitchen, coffee pods and a selection of teas, surrounded by countryside. Loved our time away here

Hanna

We had a wonderful stay!

The accommodation is beautifully furnished and fully equipped, which made our stay extremely comfortable despite some rather unfortunate weather. Great kitchen for cooking, everything available, and a qonderfully comfortable sofa to relax on and watch TV. Laura was extremely friendly and helpful with recommendations for the local area. We are hoping to return soon.

Carolyn

This is the best Airbnb I have stayed at by far

A really high standard in all rooms, I could not fault all the facilities, too many to mention. I will definitely go back again and will recommend it to anyone.

Glyn

The accommodation was great!

Very quiet location. Laura was onsite and very helpful but she respected our privacy. Very comfortable and with everything you need. The area of South Hams is stunningly beautiful. If you like seafood, coastal walks and private little coves to have a dip in the sea, this is the place for you. The tree lines single track lanes with passing places were fun to drive along. Kingsbridge with various shops and supermarkets is within easy reach. We spent a fabulous 10 nights here. Would highly recommend it.

Cathy

We really enjoyed our few days in the cottage

Everything was spotlessly clean and well equipped which made for a great stay. The bed was very comfortable and the fixtures, fittings and furniture are all of a very high standard throughout. We liked the countryside location as it was really quiet and peaceful but also close enough to explore along the SW Coast Path each day. Overall a great stay which we would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in this area.

Kent

We could not recommend the stables enough!

The perfect space for our family with two young children and our dog! Laura thought of everything we could need with young children and we can’t wait to go back soon!

Shauna

We had a lovely time at Higher Stancombe

So quiet, homely and cosy. Everything you need for a comfortable break away! Lovely walks from the door. Also within a short drive of Kingsbridge, Hope Cove, Salcombe, Dartmouth and lots of lovely beaches. Highly recommend.
