When you stay with us, you’re not just booking a place to sleep. You’re stepping into a world with history, heart, and a story of its own. The Old Mountain Stables was originally a block of 16 stables before being converted into four stunning self-catering holiday apartments. Each apartment is named after one of the horses that once called it home – Dolly, Arthur, Tricycle and Rosie.
Your mountain getaway awaits, we already have natural beauty in abundance. But with underfloor heating, WI-FI, king-size beds, hot tubs, and more, we’ve managed to transform this once humble stable block into accommodation that offers everything you could ever need.
