What to expect

A home, not a hotel

Lived in

Patricia and Gerry live here with their dogs and cats, so animals are often around the courtyard and garden. Tell us if you have allergies.

Shared kitchens

A kitchen on each Stables floor and one in the Mews, yours to use even if you book a single room. Each is shared with the room or rooms next door, so please keep late-evening noise down.

Quiet by choice

Guests come for a quiet stay, and TVs tend to be loud, so we have chosen not to have them. Strong Wi‑Fi lets you stream on your own device.

Character, not uniform

It’s a listed house built with Northamptonshire sandstone, limestone floors and oak beams. Rooms and bathrooms differ, so look at each room page before you book.

Guest review

“It's the second time coming here. It's so relaxing and peaceful. The room is spacious and clean and very comfortable. The owners are wonderful, very welcoming and helpful.”

Questions

Common questions

When can I check in and out?

Check-in is after 3pm and before 10pm, and check-out is 11am. Early check-in is £30 when available — Call Patricia to confirm.

Is there parking?

Yes. Parking is free for guests, on site and off-road, a short walk from the rooms. Day-office guests also park off-road, with EV charging.

What is the cancellation policy?

When you book direct, cancelling is free until your card is charged, three days before you arrive. After that the booking is non-refundable, but please still tell us if you cannot come. See the booking terms. (Booking.com and Airbnb have their own rules if you book there.)

Is there a TV in the rooms?

No. Guests come for a quiet stay, so we have chosen not to have them. Strong Wi‑Fi lets you stream on your own device.

Which animals live at the house?

Frank and Elsa, our rescue dogs (they often greet people in the courtyard); Sophie, Jennifer and Dennis, the cats; Peter the rabbit and 3 lady guinea pigs who are called Podge, Slim and Scruff. Tell us if you have allergies.

Can I use the kitchens?

Yes, even if you book a single room. The Stables has a kitchen on each floor; The Mews has one kitchen between Rooms 5 and 6. There are no kitchen hours or cooking rules — we only ask that you are mindful of other guests and tidy up after yourself. Shared fridges are fine for BYO drinks.
