"The nicest shed you will ever stay in."

We loved everything! This place was amazing!

There wasn’t anything not to love. Everything was provided for you and the extras like butter, jam, eggs, bbq and fire pit made it an amazing stay.

"Relaxing and quiet, a lovely evening"

Tranquil and nicely laid out for a chilled evening. Fire pit was a lovely touch along with the freshly baked bread and homemade biscuits. We will definitely be back again.

"A Peaceful and Comfortable Getaway"

10.0

We had a lovely stay at The Potting Shed! It was a very comfortable and relaxing place. The garden was beautiful and peaceful—perfect for a quiet getaway. Everything we needed was ready for us, and the hosts even left fresh eggs, butter, and bread, which was a really nice touch. The chickens were a fun surprise, and the bathroom was clean and well-kept. We were warmly welcomed by the lady, and she also came to say goodbye when we left. Overall, it was an amazing experience and we really appreciated the care that went into making our stay special.

"Nice weekend getaway close to nature"

9.0

We really enjoyed our stay, it was good for two nights and enjoying some time closer to the nature away from the city. We like how nicely everything was set up, the bed was very comfortable and there were nice treats in the kitchen (delicious cake and eggs). It was nice sitting outside in the evening by the fire and enjoying the calmness. The surroundings were also very pretty and you can enjoy a nice walk to a nearby pub about 30min away.

It was quite cold at night even though we stayed during mid August, but there were heaters provided which was very nice (thank you!). The shed is also in the main house's garden, so if you are expecting 100% silence this might not be the place for you.

"A fantastic property with great facilities in a perfect location, for visiting the area."

10.0

We absolutely loved our visit to the potting shed, it exceeded our expectations. The bed was super comfy, the kitchen perfect and the shower and toilet perfect. The location and surrounding area, with all the chocolate box villages, were great to drive through and walk around.The homemade bread, butter, jam & eggs from there own chickenswas an excellent touch. If we are lucky enough to come back to the area, we will definitely re book.

WIFI was not the best, so we struggled a bit when looking up things on our phone. But it wasn't a deal breaker.

"‘Glamping Paradise’ would definitely stay here again"

8.0

Loved the location (once we found it!) very peaceful. Kaye was very welcoming, arrived to home made bread & carrot cake (to die for! thanks Kaye) & freshly laid eggs. The shower was excellent, bed very comfy enjoyed having Cornflakes the Cat company over the 2 days we were there đŸ˜»

A toaster would be great unfortunately couldn’t get the grill to work, a microwave would be good but just items we take for granted in our everyday living & appreciate this was a different kind of living
