The Old Stables Bed & Breakfast - Shepton Mallet

beautiful space but a few quirks

The attention to detail in the decor and setup. The breakfast, especially the homemade granola, was a standout and good. The garden view from our room added a peaceful charm to our experience that we loved.

The wi-fi signal was weaker than expected, which could be inconvenient.

Overall it was airy with a large bed.

Its location was amazing, just off a pub at the end, fields and Cheddar, Glastonbury, Wells and more.

A few things could use some improving. For instance, some plumbing quirks could detract from the experience. Those who prefer a bit more hustle might find the remote location a bit off-putting, and the breakfast menu could use more vegetarian options. Lastly, I noticed some guests wishing for a bit more seating in the room to really kick back and relax, and that lack of poached eggs on the menu is just a shame, particularly for how good the rest of the food is.

charming spot near beautiful parks and unique landmarks

The Old Stables Bed & Breakfast is a good place with fantastic hosts, and the nearby Beacon Hill Woods is only a little over 3 km away, while the scenic Kilver Court Gardens, just about 2 km from the hotel, offers fine views and a perfect spot for a relaxed stroll.

that hotel was in a stunning and marvellous location, down a country lane to the pub. further, it was very close to new art gallery and quality restaurant, all local attractions and fields. the rooms were beautiful and soothing as for me.

Don't miss Aly's homemade granola at breakfast. It's a real treat that showcases local ingredients beautifully.

The Granary room offered a huge, comfy bed, and the roll-top bath was a lovely touch. Aly and Simon provided thoughtful extras like homemade cookies and a basket for my dog. Breakfast was definitely a highlight. Fluffy homemade pancakes with bacon were lovely! I appreciated the spacious room that included a fridge, perfect for keeping drinks cold. On the downside, I found the remote location slightly isolating, and I wished there were more vegetarian options on the breakfast menu and a few more seating options in the room. The attention to detail and warm hospitality really set this place apart.

The Granary room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and impeccably clean, providing all the essentials including a cozy bed and good homemade shortbread. Simon and Alyson were cute hosts, everything was perfect for my stay.

Nothing to complain about.

the wifi was spotty. but the attention to detail was impeccable, especially the homemade shortbread. and the cozy atmosphere made it feel like home. breakfast was delicious, particularly the full English with warm pastries.

Can recommend for a brief retreat

Charming atmosphere, cute hosts, and good breakfast made our stay enjoyable, especially with the attention to detail evident in our beautifully decorated room, as well as the convenient location perfect for exploring local attractions.

Nothing to complain about.

We relaxed in the garden room, loved the cozy touches like homemade shortbread, and appreciated the helpful local tips.

Great breakfast and dog-friendly, but weak wi-fi signal was frustrating.

Conveniently located near a new art gallery, and close to Cheddar, Glastonbury, and Wells. Right smack in the middle of the city 🏞️.

The room we stayed in was beautifully decorated with nice touches and had a spacious bed and bathroom.
