The Stables; before and after the renovation!

Sarah Dean • October 8, 2021

The Stables holiday cottage was originally the stable block for the working horses that worked the land surrounding Pasture House farm.
When we first started work on the project in 2017, the images below show that The Stables still had the hay racks, saddle hooks and it hadn't really been touched since it was an operational stable block.

With this property, because it was going to be a renovation, rather than a new build, we wanted to keep as much character as possible.
Above, the photo to the far right, shows the door that now separates the living, kitchen, dining area and the entrance. We were really unsure whether to keep this door in the property because it has grooves in the bottom where the horses have kicked the door but everyone who has seen the property loves the character and the history behind it.

Above shows some of the progress photos from how The Stables has transformed from somewhere where working horses live to somewhere where guests can stay in a luxury holiday let.

As shown in the last two photos, we have kept the original beams in what is now the main living, kitchen and dining area which again brings character to this property.

Above shows a gallery of photos of what The Stables looks like today! This property sleeps four people across two ensuite bedrooms with a large open plan living, kitchen, dining area and a spacious, enclosed garden and patio area including hot tub, pizza oven and BBQ. Notice there are some horse orientated décor pieces! Above the kitchen table we also managed to keep the original saddle hooks.

Before and After!
