I really love this accommodation. It has all you could need for a short, or long stay. It is very clean and Nigel the host is very affable. Whilst morally l know l should share this location, my dark side is saying not as l want to rebook for another visit and don’t want to run the risk of missing out!

Another stay in this lovely property.
Visiting family in the area, we have stayed before and love it here with our two little dogs. In the winter months it’s cozy and warm and this time of year you can be outside, it’s very private and has a table, chairs and umbrella to sit and look over the surrounding fields, very peaceful, the birds and the sheep are all you can hear and the daily life of people spending time on the canal which runs alongside where it is situated at Napton Locks. You can walk or drive into the village and stock up on lovely local produce, bread, cakes, pastries, meat, fruit and veg and absolutely anything you would need for that extra special treat, it’s just a wonderful Village Store and The Folly Inn and The Cidery are within walking distance. The owner has made sure there is everything you need for a perfect stay, it is well equipped, clean, plenty of towels, lovely bed, the list is endless, a real home from home and we feel comfortable there, we’ll be back so thank you Nigel for letting us stay.

A brilliant three night stay at The Stables.
A very enjoyable three night stay at the Stables. A lovely conversion with just the right level of accommodation and facilities for us two and our dog. A quality finish throughout and plenty of space in each room for a comfortable relaxed time. The location is idyllic with the quiet surrounding countryside and the canal and locks alongside. Nigel was on hand if you required any help or advise about local history or places to visit, a really nice knowledgeable chap! Our time here left us feeling relaxed and refreshed, we would not hesitate recommending this property to anyone looking for a short stay getaway. Louise and Peter from West Sussex.

Lovely weekend for mum and I
Mum is 92 and we both loved this property, fields full of lambs one side and the canal the other, pub 100m away, good weather, what more can you ask. The accommodation was really comfortable and had everything we needed. Met Nigel when we arrived and spoke to him again when we left. Perfect! Thank you Nigel. Christine and Babs x

A lovely Break
The entire process was easy. It was as it stated on the advert. Nigel was accommodating to our needs. I live on a narrowboat and access to hot water, a washing machine and electricity which was 'On Tap' should never be underestimated nor taken for granted. All this was present in abundance but in a quiet location. It's a cozy place and was part of a memorable experience. I'd stay again. I don't say that often.

A nostalgic trip back to the canal
A very warm and personal welcome from Nigel, our host. The converted stable had absolutely everything you needed to make our stay very comfortable. The underfloor heating and the log burning stove insured we were never cold. A thoroughly enjoyable stay right beside the canal lock, close to where we kept our canal boat.

Great place to stay
Just had two nights at this lovely property, visiting relatives who live near, didn’t want to leave, ideal for us and our dogs, and what views from the windows across the fields, just so peaceful. We are looking forward to going back again to enjoy the surroundings and especially to stay in Nigel’s cozy, clean and homely stable conversation which has everything and more that you would need to spend your time in. We couldn’t fault it.

Beautiful converted stables with a cozy log fire. The local pub The Folly is a delight and the tow path walk was an added bonus for walking our Shih Tzu. The host Nigel was so welcoming, we arrived during a storm and Nigel had come out to meet us with a bottle of wine. Cooking facilities were perfect (I’m coeliac so we cooked our own food) and the dishwasher made clean up so much quicker so that we could enjoy a glass of Nigel’s wine in front of the log burner. The house was clean and cozy and our dog loved the under floor heating. We look forward to coming back.

Lovely Short Break
From the minute we arrived at The Stables @ Lock Cottage we felt relaxed. The accommodation was well equipped, spotlessly clean and full of character with underfloor heating and a log burner making it very cosy. The Folly (dog friendly Pub) was just 100 yards away serving good food. Good walks nearby with access to the canal tow path. Wellies are essential for this time of year! Will definitely return.
