A cosy room in a beautiful garden with a view over Shapwick Church, in an ideal location to explore the local nature reserves. The owners were very welcoming and provided an exceptional breakfast with homemade bread and organic veg from the garden.

I don't think it can be bettered.

The property is furnished to the highest standards, and with great thought. The bed is extremely comfortable. The owners are friendly, kind and considerate. The location is great for walks to the nearby nature reserves, with parking outside.

Fantastic 'escape from it all' place with wonderful hosts, beautifully renovated potting shed looking out over the owners lovely garden and the nearby church. Super breakfast served looking out over the garden and with lovely oldey world crockery. Set in a ancient part of the country so that you really felt you were in another time.

No pub/restaurant within walking distance. However Matthew and Karin recommended several eating establishments within a few minutes drive.

The Potting Shed was surrounded by a beautiful garden; the window had a peaceful view which looked like a painting. The bed was comfortable and the whole place just felt cosy.

A genuinely perfect B&B! Our stay at Mathew's B&B was a delightful escape. Mathew's charm and local knowledge enhanced our experience, guiding us to local walks/attractions/restaurants. An absolute highlight was Mathew's impromptu suggestion to witness the enormous starling murmurations at sunset, creating a genuine wonderful memory! The cozy annexe provided a private retreat, complemented by a beautiful surrounding garden and the breakfast was superb! We're already planning our return, drawn by the perfect blend of comfort, local insights, and great hosting. Highly recommended for a personalized and memorable getaway!

The room was warm, spotless, interesting and comfortable; the shower and loo too. We had a warm welcome and a really good cooked breakfast to set us up for a day outdoors.

Matthew and Karin are generous and welcoming hosts. We were only there for an overnight stay, but had everything we needed and enjoyed our stay, including a delicious breakfast. The room was clean and warm with a very comfortable bed.

Very warm welcome, a lovely location near to the church and excellent breakfast. The potting shed is ideal for single travellers and is very well situated for exploring the lovely countryside close by.

We had a fantastic experience at this cosy place! The hosts Matthew and Karen were incredibly welcoming, and the property exceeded my expectations. The attention to detail in the decor and amenities made it feel like a home away from home. The location was convenient, and the neighborhood felt safe. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Especially the breakfast was made to our liking and it was delicious.

Nothing to not like

Mathew and his wife were absolutely wonderful hosts, communication from the initial booking was great. They met us upon arrival and showed us into the delightful ’Potting Shed’ which was super sweet and cosy, spotlessly clean and the bed was really comfortable. It was a very dark December evening when we arrived and I couldn’t wait for sunrise to see the garden. We slept so well in the lovely bed, I drew the curtains to the spectacular view of the church and the wonderful gardens. We had a nice shower, a walk around the garden and then Mathew cooked us a fabulous breakfast of quality produce and freshly ground coffee. Wonderful hosts and we shall definitely return. Thank you Debbie & Kim

The bed was a little small but we only stayed one night so didnt cause much of an issue

Lovely location and the garden was really nice. Karin was very welcoming, and couldnt be more accomodating. They kept in contact with us up until our stay and were so friendly. Breakfast was lovely and again I couldnt fault the food or the service, lots of home made produce too!

Just back from a wonderful two night stay at the Potting Shed. Matthew and Karin, the owners are a lovely couple. They were very welcoming and helpful and I really enjoyed our chats. The communication with them before and during my stay was great. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and I slept really well, which is not always the case when I am away. There were lots of lovely touches like good quality eco toiletries, some delicious dark chocolate and fresh milk for the tea/coffee tray. The breakfasts were a highlight for me. Great coffee, homemade bread, organic raspberries freshly picked from the garden served with lovely yoghurt and a choice available for the cooked breakfast. I had bacon, eggs, tomato and mushrooms the first morning and smoked salmon with spinach and poached eggs the second day. Both were delicious! I will return for another stay when I am in the area.

A fabulous little retreat in Shapwick with really friendly and welcoming hosts. A fabulous breakfast was provided in their sunny cottage garden with beautiful views and the company of their two lovely dogs.
