"A very comfortable stay in a great location."

9.0

Very friendly helpful owners. Our bed was really comfortable and the room was warm. Breakfast was excellent and delivered to the door, we were left fresh milk, tea and coffee to make a hot drink with. We woke up to a beautiful countryside view.

Nothing, the A303 is very close but the noise didn’t bother us at all. We will definitely be staying again.

"Excellent accommodation and hosts. Would definitely stay again."

10.0

Accommodation had excellent facilities. Easy to find. Hosts were very helpful. Bed was really comfy. Shower was excellent. The farm and buildings all very pretty. Parking easy. Breakfast great and lots of choice.

Only concern is that we were able to hear lorries travel down the A303. It didn't keep me awake or wake me up despite being a light sleeper, so it wasn't so much of an issue, but it was audible when relaxing in the room. If you want complete silence then this might not be for you.

"Great place, ideal location for my work trip and property and food far exceeded expectations."

10.0

Beautiful place, friendly accommodating host, immaculate suite and breakfast/ tea and coffee facilities far exceeded expectations. Such a bonus to be at a b n b but have breakfast served privately in your room.

Its adjacent to the A303 so if road noise bothers you the that could be a issue. Very tranquil apart from that

"Perfect farm stay."

10.0

We loved our stay at Shave Farm. We stayed in the Cedar Barn, which was perfect for our needs. James and Kate were super friendly and helpful. Kate's cooked breakfast was delicious. We would definitely return in the future.

"The perfect,short night stay for anyone!"

Everything. This barn was one of the best we have ever chosen to stay in. It was so comfortable, clean and cozy. We self catered and it had everything you needed. It is so peaceful and the location is lovely. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay away. You will not be disappointed!

No bad word to say. Eveyrthing was amazing.

"We enjoyed SHAVE Farm as a base, visiting and revisiting beautiful Somerset and Devon."

10.0

We liked everything about Our Deluxe Suite at Shave Farm. The breakfast table and fridge had fresh fruit, cereals,jam,fresh orange juice and milk. Filter coffee, tea, hot chocolate and so on! Then we had a delightful cooked breakfast delivered to the table by our host! Also a microwave for guests convenience.Lots of toast too. The bed was very comfortable, the shower was great with shampoo,shower gel and conditioner provided. All was tastefully furnished and cosy. The property and gardens/patios were well kept with lots to occupy youngsters too. We really enjoyed a delightful 3 nights at Shave Farm and our Hosts have ensured that guests do exactly that! Highly recommend!

Nothing to dislike.
