- Beautiful grounds
- Smart TVs in bedrooms
- Bar
Reception rooms and kitchen:
The living areas at Stable Manor are divided between two storeys, with a kitchen and dining room downstairs, and a living room with a billiards table and bar on the first floor. The manor offers delicious on-site catering and features a commercial kitchen, however, the self-catering kitchen is equipped with all you need to dazzle guests with your fabulous cuisine. Moving through to the dining room, we find a collection of custom-made dining tables, seating up to 30 guests on fabulous yellow chairs.
Upstairs, in the living room, we find a most beautiful space. With an open ceiling and exposed wooden beams, there is a real sense of the original setup of the building. A collection of antique sofas and armchairs creates a warm, ambient space to relax and catch up with your fellow guests. There is also a bookshelf and a billiards table provide ample entertainment. Two, large Persian carpets tie the room together, giving it a comfortable atmosphere. There is a bar, with a price list covering all of the available drinks. Guests that prefer to bring their own beverages will not have access to the bar and are expected to take their recycling with them upon the end of their stay.
Bedrooms:
Each of the bedrooms in this Dorset holiday cottage have been tastefully and uniquely styled, with a freestanding bath and shower, and fine Egyptian cotton bed linen. On the ground floor, we find two bedrooms- Skewbald and Roan Suite. Skewbald consists of a 4-poster bed, and freestanding bath, separated by original wooden stable doors. Roan Suite houses two beds, one on the ground floor and the other on a mezzanine. This suite has an accessible washroom and is ideal for guests with less mobility.
Upstairs, we find the remaining 6 bedrooms; Chestnut, Bay, Palomino, Dapple Grey, Buckskin, and Dun. Chestnut is the only bedroom with a log burner. This room is set on a single level, with views across the courtyard. The remaining suites share a similar layout, with a mezzanine bathroom and a king-size bed. Each of these rooms are uniquely styled with warm, colourful fabrics.

Surrounding area:
One of the great perks of renting a Holliday cottage in Dorset is the pleasure of being able to explore the many attractions throughout Dorset. Stable Manor is so conveniently located that many of the recommended places to visit are an hour or less by car. Attractions like The Tank Museum and the Russell-Cotes Art Gallery & Museum are certainly worth a visit for art and history lovers. Groups with young kids might enjoy a trip to Liberty’s Owl, Raptor and Reptile Centre or Dorset Heavy Horse Farm. Kingston Lacy and the Larmer Tree are just down the road and are great for both adults and kids. Guests who enjoy spending time in nature might enjoy the Castleman Trailway walk close by, or a fishing tour at Brockington, which can be arranged with the owners. Another activity that is particularly fascinating is a tour of the original manor house, which is home to the 12th Earl of Shaftesbury. The manor house has been beautifully refurbished and is worth a visit. This dog-friendly cottage in Dorset is a great base to both relax and unwind and explore many incredible, must-see sites in close-by areas.
