The Stables

A former Stables when horses were used on the farm, the upper floor was a hayloft. Then converted to a milking shed and calf shed. The conversion to a holiday cottage was made in 2006/7. We kept original features and used oak from our wood for door lintels. Downstairs floors are tiled or wooden with all wooden floors upstairs. The space Pattard has been a barn owl nesting site for many years (dad erected first owl box 30 years ago) and a visit in early summer should enable you to see parent owls flying at dusk to hunt for small mammals. We try to keep areas of tussocks grass in fields and field margins to give the owls some hunting ground. Enter from North side nearest farm lane into a hallway. To the left is a shower room with toilet, hand basin and shower. Straight ahead from hallway is door to kitchen, dining area. The kitchen is well appointed with washing machine, tumble dryer, dishwasher, fridge/freezer and cooker and microwave. To the left of dining area is the sitting room with 2 three seater seethes, and smart TV & DVD. There are French doors opening onto a patio area with outside bench/table. It is in this area you can park your car(s). From the kitchen dining area there are stairs to the first floor where there are three bedrooms. 1 King and 2 twin bedded rooms. There is also the main bathroom which has a bath, shower (walk in seperate to bath) toilet and hand basin. There are three bedrooms upstairs. 1 King bedded room and two twin bedded rooms Pattard has been a barn owl nesting site for many years (dad erected first owl box 30 years ago) and a visit in early summer should enable you to see parent owls flying at dusk to hunt for small mammals. We try to keep areas of tussocks grass in fields and field margins to give the owls some hunting ground. There are plenty of places to walk straight from the door. The south west coast path is a 20 minute walk about 1.5 miles. There are wood, valley walks just to south of Pattard. Other things to note 1. The Stable is no smoking so please do not smoke in the house. 2. If you bring a dog please do not let it upstairs there is a stairgate at the bottom of the stairs so that can contain dog downstairs. 3. Please do not let dogs on furniture unless you bring your own blankets/throws to cover settees.
