Dannett Stable

Tucked away at the end of a private drive, amidst glorious rolling farmland, yet close to the clifftop walks, sheltered coves and fishing villages along the south coast, this fabulous barn conversion is the perfect 'escape to the country' for family holidays, special occasion celebrations or a group of friends simply looking for an excuse to get together. With oodles of space both inside and out, a large garden, sunny patio with bubbling hot tub, games-room, woodland walks and fishing lakes into the mix, Dannett Stable is a very special place where happy holiday memories will be made.

All created with much care by the lovely owners, who farm sheep and cattle, and live next door along with their son and his family, along with another property Dannett Farmhouse (4962), not to mention some free-range chickens and guineafowl, the most comical of birds who might make an appearance in the garden.

Remarkably spacious, with beautiful and comfortable home-from-home interiors, everyone can help prepare holiday meals in the huge farmhouse kitchen all served up at the dining-table where you are sure to linger for many an hour, reflecting on the current day's adventures and planning the next day's instalment. The equally large sitting-room has French doors leading out to the sunny patio where you might choose to fire up the barbecue on balmy evenings.

One bedroom with its own cloakroom is on the ground floor and the further four bedrooms - two with en suite facilities - are on the first floor with the twin room accessed through the super-king bedroom, making it ideal for parents with younger children. Last but by no means least is the family bathroom complete with spa bath, so lock the door, turn the tap, add some bubbles and chill!

Outside the magic continues. Grown ups can relax in the garden soaking up those countryside views whilst the children burn up some energy enjoying ball games on the lawn or practicing their knee drops on the trampoline, popping over every now and then to say hello to Dusty the donkey and Silver the Shetland pony - the cutest of couples. If the weather turns a little chilly or for those with a competitive edge, the games-room, shared with the guests of Dannett Farmhouse will keep you entertained for hours, there's pool, table-football darts or table-tennis in fact with so much choice you can have a mini Olympiad during your stay.

If you have a larger group coming to stay, why not rent neighbouring Dannett Farmhouse and make it a real celebration. What a wonderful time you will have together!
