A "bait stable" is one which feeds and houses your horse.

by a single horse or a pair, typically with four extravagantly large
wheels, very lightly sprung, with a minimal body, fast and dangerous.
It usually had no sidepieces in front of the seats.
A barouche was a fashionable type of horse-drawn carriage in the 19th
century. Developed from the calash of the 18th century,[1] it was a
four-wheeled, shallow vehicle with two double seats inside, arranged
vis-à-vis, so that the sitters on the front seat faced those on the
back seat.
